Systech SPT, a serialization solution for the global pharmaceutical industry, serializes products at the item, case, and pallet levels. The solution also enables bi-directional communication between the packaging line and government managed repository, thereby maintaining the data integrity necessary to meet Brazil’s track and trace initiative.
Systech said that, as configurable software, SPT eases handling multiple code schemas to comply with various regulations, enables in-house personnel to easily maintain the solution, and speeds implementation. As a result, manufacturers see less line downtime, increased productivity, and reduced costs.
Joe Ringwood, COO of Systech, said: “Through this strategic partnership, manufacturers can leverage the knowledge and experience of two leading companies. Our proven solutions have been deployed worldwide by companies addressing various packaging needs. The combination of Systech’s software and Videojet’s local support will help meet our customers’ immediate serialization initiatives.”
Andre Santos, country manager of Videojet Brazil, said: “Videojet is excited to partner with Systech and offer complete, turnkey solutions that effectively meet manufacturers’ business needs. We can provide manufacturers in Brazil with the resources and support needed to address their packaging operations.”
In 2009, Brazil passed Law 11.903, which requires the ‘tracking of manufacturing and consumption of medicine by means of data capturing, storing, and electronic transmission technology.’
In order to comply with these regulations, local and multi-national pharmaceutical companies serving the Brazilian market need to promptly deploy serialization technology, such as Systech’s Serialized Product Tracking (SPT) solution.
