This document discusses food traceability, including definitions, functional roles, common features, and coding systems. It summarizes key aspects of traceability including tracking food through production and distribution, identifying origins, and supporting food safety, labeling, and risk assessment. It also outlines the most commonly used global traceability standards, including the GS1 system of numbering and identification codes that can track items, locations, logistics units and more through the supply chain.
Food traceability
- 1. Food Traceability Munna Iype Joy 315009 M-Tech - FSQM
- 2. Definition “The ability to trace and follow a food, feed, food-producing animal or substance through all stages of production and distribution” (EU Regulation Food Law : 8/5/01) “The ability to trace the history, application or location of an entity by means of recorded information (ISO 8402:1992)
- 3. • Designed to track the flow of product or product attributes through the production process or supply chain • Identification of the origin of food and feed ingredients and food sources Traceability
- 5. Functional roles of traceability 1. Food Safety incidents 2. Food residue surveillance programmes 3. Risk assessment from food exposure 4. Enforcement of labelling claims 5. Fraud 6. Food wastage 7. Food hygiene
- 6. Common Features Featur es Item associated information Item identification Communication Process based information
- 7. Coding systems • EAN.UCC system of numbering and identification • Also includes identification of locations and services • Six standard numbering structures comprise EAN.UCC system • *EAN International/European Article Number • *UCC Universal Code Council
- 8. Six Numbering Structures 1. GTIN – Global Trade Item Number 2. SSCC – Serial Shipping Container Code 3. GLN – Global Location Number 4. GRAI – Global returnable asset identifier 5. GIAI – Global Individual Asset identifier 6. GSRN – Global Service Relation Number
- 9. 1. GTIN – Global Trade Item Number • Family of four unique numbering system • EAN/UC-14, 13,12,8 • Check digit – calculated using s/w for checking errors
- 10. 2. SSCC – Serial Shipping Container Code • 18 – digit code used to identify logistical units.
- 11. 3. GLN – Global Location Number • The GLN can identify a company’s physical locations, for example a store, a warehouse, or a berth in a port
- 12. 4. GRAI – Global returnable asset identifier • This GS1 Key is especially suitable for the management of reusable transport items, transport equipment, and tools.
- 13. 5. GIAI – Global Individual Asset identifier • Companies can apply a GIAI on any asset to uniquely identify and manage that asset • This could be a computer, desk, vehicle, piece of transport equipment, or spare part
- 14. 6. GSRN – Global Service Relation Number • Used by services organisations to identify their relationships with individual service providers • doctors who work for a hospital
- 15. Item attendant Technologies 1. Data carrier technologies 2. Locating technologies 3. Communication technologies - WLAN 4. Sensory technologies – exploiting developments in sensory and telemetry technologies 5. Security technologies – for fraud prevention and security at packaging level Hologram mark
- 16. Data Carrier Technologies Linear barcodes Two dimensional & composite codes Magnetic data carriers Radio frequency identification(RFID) data carriers Contact memory data carriers
- 17. 2. Locating technologies Locating technologi es EANCOM GPS - Global positioning systems RTLS – Real Time Locating Systems
- 18. Most Popular Traceability system • Formerly Created 1977 EAN, 2005 GS1 • GS1 not-for-profit organization • a UN recognized NGO • User-driven and user-governed
