Glossary Discription

The Odette-Label is a standardized logistics identification label defined by Odette that enables uniform marking of pallets, boxes, and transport units across industrial supply chains. It contains machine-readable information such as supplier codes, product references, batch numbers, quantities, and destination plant codes, allowing automatic data capture at goods receipt, production lines, and dispatch points. This label is critical in high-volume manufacturing environments where manual identification would lead to delays, misrouting, or inventory inaccuracies.

Characteristics:

• Standardizes labeling across supply chain partners
• Enables automatic scanning and data capture
• Contains structured shipment and product data
• Supports full traceability of goods
• Reduces misrouting and manual processing
