Dramatic improvements in manufacturing and supply chain are often difficult to
find ... but improvements in product coding and labelling is one area where improvements can often be achieved.
Accurate package Coding Management can often be the key to cost reduction, traceability
and availability.

by taking a Best Practice approach to managing its package coding operations.

efficiency by over 20%"

risk to your brand and to your business...
"Package Coding Management systems’ eliminate human error
to ensure accurate date and traceability information. Removing errors from the supply chain reduces wasted product and
packaging, which helps to ensure products are affordable. It also has to be good for the environment.”

complying with regulations and optimising availability. For a large majority
of food manufacturers the Use-By date is a commercial compromise between product
quality, technical management, production and distribution.
