Tikkurila is a leading Nordic paint company, pioneering sustainable painting, surface treatment, and use of colors, with a focus on responsibility. With offices around the world and no standardized way to manage their heavy invoice workload, they knew there had to be a better way.

Benefits of Medius AP Automation
Who is Tikkurila?
Founded in Finland in 1862 as a small oil press creating linseed products, Tikkurila has grown to be one of the leading manufacturers of user friendly and environmentally sustainable paint and coating solutions for protection and design.
What was the challenge?
With a disorganized and often paper-based process, it was impossible to get a clear picture of where invoices stood and what liabilities lay around the corner. This also made the task of AP staff time consuming and tedious, limiting their potential output and contribution to the company.
How did we help?
Medius AP Automation gave all of their finance teams a single, streamlined way to process invoices. Not only did this get rid of the need for paper, but it led them to next level automation – meaning less than 10% of all invoices needed any AP staff intervention before they are approved and posted to their ERP.
Watch this video to learn how the global paint manufacturer Tikkurila harmonized their AP process across the group to achieve full control and up to 93% touchless invoice processing with Medius AP Automation.
“The plug-and-play integration that Medius offered to our Microsoft Dynamics ERP enabled a very rapid deployment throughout our group and geographies.”
