Ability to trace materials and products by production lot through suppliers, manufacturing and customers.

  2. 02Lot traceability depends on scanning lot numbers at receiving, at each production step and at shipping.
  3. 03A yearly lot traceability test picks a random customer delivery and traces it back to the raw material within 2 hours.
