MONITOR
Clean Bottling Inc. Logistics monitors production and compliance statuses against pre-defined trip plans. We also recognize that every industry is unique. Raw materials receipts and documented sources of raw materials are critical for some, while first run quality, timeline quantities and final Quality Control (QC) inspection certificates are important to others.
Our network and technological solutions enable us to obtain direct status updates before products depart the factory. We monitor quantities, timelines and quality before our customer spots incorrect labeling or sub-standard products. This successfully reduces costly re-work at destination or return
