TRACEABILITY

WEM Automation offers the most complete traceability solutions for pet food production. Even before the Bioterrorism Act and FSMA, pet food manufacturers partnered with WEM for accurate lot tracking. Over the years, WEM has expanded its Track & Trace solutions to meet the industry's strictest demands, tracking ingredient lots from entry to distribution.

Forward and backward tracing of ingredients and finished feed lots can be done quickly using the WEM Traceability Module. In the event of a recall, a simple click quarantines affected lots and finished products. This module integrates seamlessly with other our Process Control Modules, ensuring thorough documentation, traceability, and safety.

WEM OFFERS THREE TIERS OF TRACK & TRACE SOFTWARE
