Leading insulation, drywall, and ceiling products distributor CCF has taken the first steps towards offering its customers greater visibility on the journey products take from manufacture to site by trialling a new product traceability initiative. Adam Taylor, CCF’s commercial director, discusses the company’s new initiative and how its customers are set to benefit.
In a world where we expect sustainability and product safety to be verifiable, the traceability of building materials from the supply chain is becoming increasingly important. We know this is an issue that really matters to our customers, and that the majority of traceability checks currently are done manually.
It was a desire to take a proactive role that led CCF to develop a system for batch traceability. The solution provides a detailed ‘end-to-end’ report that tracks products from the manufacturer, at manufacturing batch level, through the distribution process and delivery to the goods-in location on a site.
