Traceability in the food industry
In recent years, in contemporary world of globalization, the consequences of the pandemic, the rapidly changing culture, as well as the growing expectations of customers regarding food safety, have led to serious changes and modify in regulations and traceability requirements for food industry products. Accordingly, this posed major challenges for producers in the food sector in terms of proving safety and quality in marking and labelling products.
One of the main requirements for a product to reach the market is the availability of information such as shelf life, lot number, date of manufacture, barcode, composition of products, supplier's name and other codes printed on the food or on its packaging, which ensure seamless traceability of the product from the manufacturer to the final consumer. Providing correct and complete information about products is essential to ensure that they are safe to consume and comply with all regulatory requirements. This also helps producers to carry out effective control over the quality of production and to comply with the standards and regulations that are imposed in the food sector. It is also very important to note that compliance with all legal requirements is extremely important to maintain consumer confidence in the brand / brand. Accurately and correctly written information positively affects the customer experience.
That is why the technologies related to traceability are developing at a rapid pace. QR codes, RFID technologies and other identification systems are used. These innovative methods are an excellent way to automate and optimize product tracking and control processes throughout the value chain – from raw material, through production to delivery. Betelgeus Ltd. offers many quality solutions to optimize and automate the processes related to marking and labelling.
