WHAT IS V5 TRACEABILITY?
Optimized Traceability for Plastic & Resin Manufacturing
Built for the complexities of plastic and resin manufacturing, V5 Traceability ensures compliance with EPA, OSHA, REACH, GHS, and GMP standards. It unifies batch control, quality oversight, and warehouse operations, enforcing formula consistency, automating SDS management, and providing real-time visibility into raw materials and hazardous substances—keeping operations audit-ready with minimal manual work.

With built-in deviation tracking, incident reporting, and automated compliance docs, V5 cuts waste, safety risks, and regulatory delays. Manufacturers gain end-to-end traceability, faster regulatory approvals, and stronger control over resins, solvents, and final goods.
THE BENEFITS
Key Features and Benefits of V5 Traceability
COST CONTROL
Streamline production by automating formulas, mixing, and material usage, cutting scrap rates, reducing manual handling, and accelerating batch turnaround.
Compliance
Stay aligned with EPA, OSHA, REACH, and GHS through automated SDS management, hazard tracking, and audit-ready batch records—all built into daily workflows.
SMART EFFICIENCY
From reactor charging to packaging, V5 automates scheduling, cleaning validation, and traceability, keeping chemical and plastic production both agile and compliant.
These benefits empower plastic & resin manufacturers to deliver high-quality products efficiently, securely, and consistently.
MANUFACTURING EXECUTION
MES: Manufacturing Execution System for Plastic & Resins

Automated Formulation & Dispensing
Control resin blends, plasticizers, catalysts, and solvents with precision dosing and lot-verified dispensing, reducing operator error and batch variability.
Batch Execution with Process Monitoring
Track and control extrusion, reaction, polymerization, or mixing cycles in real time—logging critical process data like temperature, pressure, and blend ratios automatically.
In-Process Quality & Safety Checks
Automatically trigger viscosity tests, MFI sampling, color inspections, or pH validation during production—tying results to batch records instantly.
Electronic Batch Records (eBR)
Replace paper with fully digital, timestamped records including operator actions, equipment IDs, and material lots—21 CFR Part 11 and GMP compliant.
Labeling & Packaging Control
Generate and apply GS1 or GHS-compliant labels for drums, totes, bags, or finished components with full forward and backward traceability.
Built-In Regulatory Compliance
Stay compliant with EPA, OSHA PSM, REACH, and GHS through automated SDS management, hazard labeling, and incident traceability.
With these features, plastic and resin manufacturers can optimize production processes while maintaining full compliance with regulatory standards.
Quality management
QMS: Quality Management System

Non-Conformance Tracking
Log issues with color, flow rate, impurities, or mechanical properties—traceable to specific compounds, lots, or equipment runs.
Complaint-Driven CAPA
Turn customer complaints into corrective actions, tying back to affected formulations, materials, or processing conditions.
Audit Prep & Compliance
Keep all required documentation—material certifications, SDS, training records, and process logs—ready for EPA, OSHA, or ISO inspections.
Lab & Testing Integration
Capture results for moisture, viscosity, MFI, pH, or other in-process lab checks, with full linkage to batch and material records.
Training & Role-Based Access
Ensure only trained staff can operate mixers, reactors, or extruders, with automated tracking of training completion and recertifications.
SOP & Formula Control
Manage versioned process instructions, material specifications, and formulas, with controlled updates and tracked approvals.
Deviation Logging
Track unplanned variations—like a failed blend, off-spec result, or unexpected downtime—with full visibility and follow-up actions.
Equipment & Calibration Logs
Log usage and maintenance of production and lab equipment, with reminders for calibration, servicing, and compliance checks.
Approval Routing
Digitally route process changes, formulation updates, or new materials through QA, Operations, and Compliance for fast signoff.
Material Restriction Management
Prevent the use of banned compounds, hazardous additives, or outdated materials using rule-based controls tied to formulations and regions.
The QMS module integrates seamlessly with MES and WMS, providing a unified approach to quality and compliance.
Warehouse management
WMS: Warehouse Management System

Optimized Receiving & Putaway
Automatically route incoming raw materials, drums, or totes to the correct hazmat zone, temperature-controlled area, or material class location—with barcode-scanned confirmations.
Efficient Picking & Dispensing
Enable accurate pulls of resins, solvents, and additives for production—automated by lot number, FIFO rules, and formulation matching to reduce picking errors and cross-contamination.
Order Fulfillment Accuracy
Ship full pallets, mixed totes, or partial container loads with verified scanning and auto-generated compliance paperwork like SDS or GHS labels.
Live Inventory Tracking
Track bulk liquids, granular plastics, or hazardous blends in real time by container, location, and usage stage—supporting cycle counts and on-demand audits.
Controlled Material Access
Enforce handling restrictions for flammables, corrosives, or regulated additives with user permissions, zone controls, and storage condition checks.
Built-In Compliance
Maintain GHS, REACH, and EPA warehouse-level compliance with proper material segregation, container labeling, and emergency documentation.
Batch & Lot-Level Traceability
Track every container, drum, or super sack by lot number, supplier, and destination—ensuring traceability from dock to reactor to finished goods.
Expiry & Shelf-Life Management
Monitor time-sensitive compounds, temperature-exposed materials, or reactive agents with automated expiry alerts and usage cutoffs.
Flexible Warehouse Configuration
Support multi-zone warehouses, hazmat corridors, and quarantine locations with dynamic location types and mobile-accessible maps.
Automated Recordkeeping & Reports
Generate detailed logs for receipts, movements, usage, and disposals—supporting both daily operations and regulatory audits with no paperwork gaps.
HARDWARE
Hardware Integration
CONNECT EQUIPMENT
Integrates with scales & bulk handling PLCs to automate production steps and enforce process accuracy in real time.
OPERATOR DEVICES
Utilizes industrial touchscreens and tablets for durable, on-floor interaction with workflows, data entry, and controls.
