With operations in more than 35 countries and over 250 sites worldwide, Greif, Inc., a global leader in industrial packaging products and services, needed a connectivity solution that could support their move to a more resilient and flexible network infrastructure. That’s where Blue Wireless stepped in, delivering a fully managed Starlink satellite service to enhance uptime and streamline deployment at production and remote sites globally.

As an authorized global reseller of Starlink, Blue Wireless combines next-generation satellite connectivity with hands-on service and support to help enterprise customers like Greif simplify operations and maintain high availability, even in the most remote locations.

Greif was in the process of transitioning from legacy, low-bandwidth and higher-cost circuits to an SD-WAN environment, requiring two diverse internet circuits per site to ensure high availability. For Greif’s IT team, the goal was not only connectivity diversity but also simplicity: less time spent on network deployment logistics and vendor management, and more time focused on core operations.

Our business processes depend on internet access, and by adding LEO satellite connections, which are fully diverse from our wired internet circuits, we further increase the uptime of our sites within our budget.

Blue Wireless deployed its Global Managed LEO (GML) service using Starlink satellite technology across Greif’s global footprint. As an authorized reseller, Blue Wireless was able to directly supply, configure, and manage the Starlink solution as part of a broader connectivity strategy. Greif’s existing Starlink kits were also migrated into the Blue Wireless framework, bringing them under one cohesive service model with streamlined support and centralized billing.

Results: Higher Uptime, Easier Management, and Global Scale

• Increased Site Uptime: By combining Starlink LEO satellite and fiber connections, Greif ensures maximum availability with true network diversity, increasing uptime to 99.99%.
• Faster Deployments: Installation timelines are cut down from weeks to hours—especially useful for new or remote locations.
• Simplified Management: Global deployments are handled by one provider, with predictable costs and one point of contact, rather than going through sub-accounts and invoices per country, credit card payments, and unstructured self-installations.

Blue Wireless continues to work closely with Greif to expand deployments as part of their global SD-WAN initiative.
