This article presents the design of a plant for the production of oxo-biodegradable bags in the city of Ocaña, Norte de Santander, with the aim of reducing the environmental impact generated by plastic bags in the municipality. A market study is conducted to characterize plastic bag consumers and establish demand. In this particular case, customers are focused on the marketplace, retail supermarkets, and plastic bag distribution establishments. Based on customer preferences, the product design (capacity and type of bag) is developed, along with technical specifications and a generic logo. The design of the production process is carried out using the BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) modeling technique, outlining each phase of production. Simultaneously, a systemic focus matrix is designed, showing the inputs, activities, and outputs of the process. The plant's layout design applies the SLP (System Layout Planning) method, illustrating the arrangement of workstations through the plant floor plan for production, thus observing the flow of materials. For the final design, 3D design software is used to visualize the area, layout, and dimensions of the plant.
