Tissue manufacturer optimizing production reliability and waste reduction
Irving Tissue operates four North American manufacturing facilities producing household tissue, paper towels, and napkins under owned brands and private label. The tech stack is heavily industrial—PLC, CMMS, SQL, Power BI—with Microsoft Office and collaboration tools for coordination. The project and pain-point overlap is narrow and specific: predictive maintenance, equipment reliability, waste reduction, and failure analysis dominate both lists, suggesting a manufacturing operation focused on operational efficiency rather than digital transformation or product innovation.
Irving Tissue manufactures bathroom tissue, facial tissue, paper towels, and napkins across four facilities—two in New Brunswick (Saint John and Dieppe), one in Ontario (Toronto), and one in New York (Fort Edward). The company produces branded products including Royale and Majesta tissue in Canada and Scotties facial tissue in the USA, alongside private-label products for major retailers across North America. With over 1,000 employees, the organization is structured around manufacturing operations, engineering, and logistics. Active hiring is concentrated in engineering and manufacturing roles, with internship-track recruiting visible across multiple sites.
Irving Tissue uses JD Edwards (ERP), Power BI and Excel for analytics, PLC and CMMS for plant automation and maintenance, SQL and Power Query for data, Microsoft Office and Teams for collaboration, and AutoCAD for design work across Windows and macOS environments.
