BOAL Extrusion is taking a strategic step in its continuous digitization. In collaboration with Beyonder, a digital acceleration partner, BOAL Extrusion is investing in an advanced AI-based planning solution.

In the dynamic manufacturing industry, predictable and scalable planning is essential. BOAL Extrusion is anticipating this by investing in a smart software solution. This allows the company to centralize data from various sources and, with the help of AI, take its operational planning, from production to transportation, to the next level.

The first phase of the partnership focuses on the optimization of logistics flows. The goal is to achieve a direct and measurable impact on efficiency, cost and delivery predictability through data-driven decisions.

“For BOAL Extrusion, innovation is the engine of sustainable growth. We were looking for a scalable solution with a direct and demonstrable ROI to further strengthen our processes. Beyonder’s hands-on approach immediately appealed to us,” says Gertjan Hakkers, Managing Director of BOAL Extrusion. “By working step-by-step and focusing on the real barriers to our transport planning, we were able to quickly establish a strong business case. We can already see how this will save costs and increase our predictability. This is critical to our operation.”

“The impact of this digitization, by the way, goes beyond mere operational gains. By translating our specialized knowledge into digital processes, we secure this knowledge and make it much easier to onboard new colleagues. This significantly reduces operational risk. We are also investing in valuable intellectual property (IP), which strengthens our competitive position and directly contributes to the value of our organization.”

1 + 1 = 3
“This project is a perfect example of how we can accelerate together,” added Erik Moerkerken, Managing Partner of Beyonder. “Real digital acceleration in the manufacturing industry happens at the intersection of people and technology. The in-depth knowledge of the manufacturing process of the BOAL specialists was crucial. Combining that with our expertise in digital acceleration and AI, you create a 1+1=3 situation. The BOAL team challenged us, and together we are building a solution that makes a real difference in everyday practice.”

Cory Booker Will ‘Accept Any Progress’ On Marijuana, Saying There’s A ‘Common Purpose’ For Reform Across Parties

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) says that while federal marijuana legalization represents “justice,” he is willing to accept “any progress” on cannabis as President Donald Trump considers a redistricting proposal. And the senator said that, contrary to the partisan “tribalism” endemic in the country, Americans of all political backgrounds generally agree that the issue is “an area where we have a common goal.”

At an event in Washington, DC hosted by IgniteIt on Monday, Booker spoke about the future of cannabis policy, the pending redistricting issue, full legalization and the bipartisan politics of marijuana reform.

“Justice is being deprogrammed. We all know that,” Booker said, referring to the idea of ​​removing cannabis entirely from the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), which would legalize it. “That’s the right thing to do: deprogramming. But I’ll accept any progress without progress.”

That line may raise some eyebrows among the senator’s critics, who lashed out at Booker’s previous position that he was unwilling to support bipartisan marijuana banking legislation without seeing that the communities most affected by prohibition are not subject to criminalization and receive restorative justice.

Booker, however, advocated for comprehensive marijuana reform in Congress, saying part of what informs his position is that cannabis is now a drug under the CSA, along with substances like heroin, that “defy all science and reality.”

“Having a Schedule I — having the same schedule as these much more serious substances that can have consequences for our communities — is absurd,” he said.

The senator also reflected on the 2020 Democratic presidential campaign, where at one point he sparred with former President Joe Biden and told him that the creator of his marijuana policy platform “should be on top” for his incrementalism.

“Everybody in the audience laughed,” Booker said, per IgniteIt he stated. “My mother didn’t say, ‘Don’t blame the Vice President of the United States for being high.’ My mother didn’t like it.”

“I have been fighting this battle for a long time,” the senator said. “I don’t care if you’re a Republican or a Democrat; by the way, I think most of the problems in this country, the lie we tell is whether it’s left or right. No, they’re not. We agree a lot more than we disagree.”

“I think the brutality of our tribalism is unfortunately a delusion that undermines the truth,” the senator said. “It is true that we are a nation with a common pain, but our politics do not serve us to unite around a common goal. This is an area where we have a common goal.”

Until then, marijuana reform has enjoyed strong bipartisan support from the American public. But The support of the Republic has seen a significant decrease since last yearAccording to a recent Gallup poll. The reasons for the change are unclear, but it comes amid heightened debate over the nation’s laws governing consumer hemp products.

Meanwhile, it’s been about three months since Trump said he would make a final decision on marijuana reregulation within weeks, a White House spokesman said recently. he told Marihuana Moment that the process remains “ongoing.”

South Dakota, the nation’s No. 1 producer of hemp fiber, is getting a major addition to its hemp processing industry this year that will help expand the state’s growing and product-making capacity. But federal legislation related to reopening the government after a seven-week shutdown that seeks to change how the plant can be used poses an existential threat to its growth, some industry members said.

It is representative of the growing two-pronged hemp industry: producing goods such as animal bedding, hemp wood and plastic, and creating consumable goods for humans and animals, some of which are intoxicating.

John Peterson, founder of Dakota Hemp, an industrial hemp grower near Wakonda, is almost ready to open the state’s second hemp processing facility. It will be operational by the end of the year and will have the ability to process hemp fibers and stalks, the thick, woody parts of the plant, into a variety of products.

On the farm, Peterson also grows cannabidiol, or CBD, plants, which produce Dakota Hemp-branded CBD products, such as tinctures, lotions and pet treats, among other items sold statewide.
