 加强食品安全和产品召回能力

Using the GS1 Barcoding System helps enhance food safety and product recall capabilities. Each food manufacturer is responsible for tracking every product that comes into their facility, tracking products as they go through the manufacturing process, 跟踪每件成品的运输地点. 的 GS1 Barcoding system is an asset in every step of the food traceability chain. Let’s take a look and see how GS1 Barcoding can positively affect various areas in a food processing plant.

GS1条码在收货中的好处

All across North America, products arrive on receiving docks in various conditions. 有些产品有条形码标签. 有些产品有手写的标签. 的 GS1 Barcoding System standardizes the entire receiving process.

When an item is received without a GS1 Barcode the information for that product must be manually recorded. Manual processes increase the chance that an error will occur during receiving. Operators must manually record all the receiving information (i.e. 供应商、重量、产品编号等.).

GS1条码系统消除了人为错误的风险. By scanning a GS1 Barcode, products can be received from anywhere in the world. 的 information 要求 at receiving can be pulled automatically from the barcode and brought directly into most WMS Systems.

GS1条码在制造过程中的好处

GS1 Barcoding also removes human error from the manufacturing process. Food manufacturers who aren’t using barcodes in their manufacturing process must record product data by hand or in spreadsheets (i.e. 产品名称、重量、生产日期等.). Information can easily be recorded or interpreted incorrectly. Food manufacturers using GS1 Barcodes can accurately label and track products throughout the entire manufacturing process.

的 GS1 Barcode contains crucial information like the product weight, 日期, 产品编号, 但它也包含一个唯一的物品序列号. 的 item serial number is a key component in food traceability. Food manufacturers who can track products by the individual item serial number have significantly higher recall capabilities.

GS1条码在运输过程中的好处

GS1 Barcoding is an asset in the picking and shipping process. A food manufacturer that hasn’t implemented the GS1 Barcoding System will have limited visibility into what products have been shipped to each customer. Shipped items and weights must be recorded manually, and those records will have limited information. Without detailed visibility into what items are being shipped, 召回的影响将会大得多.

然而, when a food manufacturer implements GS1 Barcoding into their shipping process, 他们的知名度提高了. Product information can be pulled from the barcode and recorded in WMS software applications. Shipping containers like pallets and cases can be picked to orders by scanning the GS1 Barcode instead of trying to manually pick items. GS1 labeling enables a food manufacturer to see which items were shipped to each customer (by serial number). This level of visibility greatly enhances a processor’s recall management capabilities.

GS1条码开启更大机遇之门

最后, most large food retailers and distributors require food manufacturers to apply GS1 Barcodes to all their products. Large food retailers and distributors receive substantial quantities of shipments each day. To streamline their receiving process they rely on their vendors to adhere to strict labeling requirements. 采用GS1条码系统, a food manufacturer is opening the door to selling their products into these large establishments.
