About Aritmos in the chemical industry

Aritmos is a Sage Platinum Partner based in Lleida with experience implementing Sage X3 in process manufacturing companies: chemicals, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, paints and surface treatments. Sage X3 natively supports formula-based manufacturing with variable coefficients, by-product and co-product management, batch quality control and full traceability. Aritmos complements these capabilities with experience in hazardous product management (official movement register, categories, registration numbers) gained through its verticals for the agri sector (supplies and ceramics).

From formulation to compliant shipment, step by step

Formula and product data management

Formula definition with components, proportions and variable coefficients based on process parameters (temperature, concentration, moisture). Formula version management. Product records with CLP classification (hazard pictograms, H and P statements), CAS number, REACH number. Safety data sheets (SDS) linked to the item. Management of by-products and co-products generated in the process.

Raw material procurement and storage

Purchasing management with supplier evaluation and certificates of analysis. Storage with compatibility restrictions between substances (flammable, oxidising, corrosive). Stock control by batch with expiry date and status (quarantine, released, blocked). Official register of hazardous product movements. Returnable container management. Control of stored quantities against Seveso thresholds.

Process manufacturing

Production orders with formula, theoretical and actual quantities. Recording of raw material consumption, process times and parameters (temperature, pressure, pH, reaction time). Management of blending, reactions, distillation, filtration and packing. By-product and co-product declaration. Backward and forward traceability by batch. Actual cost calculation including energy, labour and auxiliary materials.

Quality control

Quality controls built into the manufacturing flow: at raw material receipt (supplier's certificate of analysis), in process (sampling during manufacture) and on the finished product (analysis before batch release). Sampling plans configurable by product and stage. Non-conformance management. Automatic blocking of out-of-specification batches. Documentation for quality (ISO 9001) and environmental (ISO 14001) audits.

Shipping and regulatory documentation

Shipment preparation with allocation of released batches. Mandatory documentation for the transport of dangerous goods: ADR (road), IMDG (sea), IATA (air). Up-to-date safety data sheets included with every shipment. CLP labelling on containers and packaging. Certificates of analysis for the customer. Export documentation where applicable.

What chemical and process companies ask us

Yes. Sage X3 natively handles process manufacturing: formulas with components and proportions that vary according to parameters (concentration, temperature, moisture content of the raw material). It supports by-products, co-products and waste. Each production order records theoretical and actual quantities, making it possible to analyse yields and optimise formulas.

Safety data sheets are linked to the item in Sage X3. Each chemical product has its CLP classification (hazard pictograms, H and P statements), CAS number and REACH number. The safety data sheet is stored in the integrated document manager and automatically included in the shipping documentation when the product is sent to the customer.

Sage X3 lets you manage the information needed for REACH compliance: registration numbers, up-to-date safety data sheets, control of substances of very high concern (SVHC) and supply chain documentation. It does not replace specific regulatory affairs software (IUCLID, CHESAR), but it centralises the document and commercial management of registered products.

Sage X3 manages stock of hazardous substances with compatibility control between products (flammable, oxidising, corrosive), stored quantities against regulatory thresholds, an official movement register and APQ category documentation. Aritmos has specific experience with this functionality through its agri supplies verticals, where the management of plant protection products and hazardous products is mandatory.

Yes. From the shipping process, Sage X3 generates the mandatory documentation for the road transport of dangerous goods (ADR): consignment note with substance data, UN number, packing group and hazard class. It includes up-to-date safety data sheets and the certificates of analysis for the shipped batch.

Aritmos has 40 years of experience in process manufacturing (especially in the agri-food and ceramics sectors, which share the same logic of formulas, batches, quality and traceability). In addition, its supplies vertical includes hazardous product management with an official movement register, a functionality that other partners build from scratch. For chemical plants that need a powerful ERP with process manufacturing, batch traceability and regulatory document management, Sage X3 with Aritmos is a solid combination.

It depends on the size of the plant, the number of formulas, quality requirements, instrumentation integrations and regulatory documentation needs. Aritmos offers a free preliminary analysis. Get in touch for a demo tailored to your type of process.
