Brazilian food cooperative Aurora is harnessing Tetra Pak’s next-generation traceability solution to increase production efficiency and add brand value to a newly launched UHT milk product.

The traceability technologies offer benefits to both the manufacturer and the end consumer. For users, it improves the speed and reliability of the entire production process through real-time monitoring and complete automation control. This, in turn, provides the means to quickly and accurately diagnose and solve potential production problems. For consumers it offers reassurance, since each individual Tetra Pak carton is stamped with a unique code that enables access to web-based information regarding the origin, processing and packaging of the product contained inside.

The new traceability solution from Tetra Pak, which Aurora calls Aurora Traced Product, gives customers and consumers more insight than ever before, with information related to each individual milk package, not just an entire lot.

Aurora’s traceability solution is based on the latest version of Tetra PlantMaster, a factory control, supervision and operation software suite which includes a quality management system and a platform to transfer data to the internet. These technologies strengthen Aurora’s cooperative quality system, facilitate process control and management and identify food origin. As well as adding brand value, Aurora sees Tetra Pak’s next-generation traceability solution as an important asset in ensuring quality and facilitating product certification.
