You can achieve full transparency by using different <a href=\"https:\/\/gs1.se\/en\/gs1-standards\/\">GS1 standards<\/a> combined. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gs1.org\/standards\/traceability\/traceability\/1-3-0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GS1 Global Traceability Standard<\/a> is a framework for solutions and plays an important role in the work for a sustainable ecosystem. By following the framework, the parties in the supply chain can gain access to data from different sources. This way you can get complete information about <em>what<\/em> is delivered, <em>when, where, why<\/em> and to <em>whom<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-traceability\">Why traceability?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now, many industries need traceability due to new EU regulations as well as increased legal and market requirements. Current examples are digital product passports, food safety, reduced food waste, proof of authenticity and sustainability. The demands are also increasing from consumers and patients who want more reliable information about products and deliveries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"arrow-link\"
