Batch & Lot Traceability

Follow a lot from raw material through to the customer who received it.

Traceability is only tested on the worst day. When a defect surfaces, the difference between withdrawing one lot and withdrawing a month of production is whether the coding held together from raw material to dispatch.

That depends on unglamorous details: a code structure everyone uses the same way, and labels that are still readable at the far end of the chain.

Features

  • Lot code printed on every unit, carton, and pallet
  • Consistent code structure across all three levels
  • Durable facestock so the code survives the whole journey

Benefits

  • A recall targets the affected lot instead of all stock
  • Supplier questionnaires are answered from records
  • Root cause work starts with data rather than guesswork

How it works

The order matters. Each step removes a decision that would otherwise be made by guesswork further down the line.

  1. Define one lot code structure for unit, carton, and pallet

  2. Print at each packing level rather than relabelling later

  3. Choose facestock rated for the storage the goods will see

  4. Retain graded verification results with the production record
