Traceability

Written by Symestic | Apr 21, 2024 8:34:06 AM

Traceability refers to the ability to seamlessly track the path of a product through all stages of its production, processing and distribution. This principle is particularly important in sectors such as the food, pharmaceutical and automotive industries, where the safety and quality of products is of paramount importance. Traceability makes it possible to quickly identify the cause in the event of quality defects or safety problems and to recall affected products in a targeted manner.

It also supports transparency in the supply chain, improves the efficiency of the supply network and strengthens consumer confidence in the products.
