Traceability - Recommendations to bottlers and packers
Scope of application
This fact sheet has been set up by the Quality Committee of Cetie. Its objective is to help bottlers or packers to establish the traceability of packaging in the final product. These recommendations do not concern the liquid beverage, only the packaging and the bottling activity. The study is not intended for a specific type of business, it is a guide from which the user can take what suits his own needs. Traceability has a cost that increases proportionally to the precision sought from the system.

This joint group aims to coordinate the production of documentation at the junction of the glass container production and bottling/filling.
