With the next phase of requirements under the U.S. Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) rapidly approaching, Sharp Packaging Services has purchased a range of serialization solutions from TraceLink.

TraceLink serves as a global track-and-trace network for connecting the life sciences supply chain and eliminating counterfeit prescription drugs from the global marketplace. As the preferred serialization provider for Sharp's Commercial Packaging and Clinical Services business in the U.S., UK, and Europe, TraceLink will help eliminate point-to-point integration complexities and reduce business risk for Sharp's extensive pharmaceutical customer base.

“We needed a cost-effective track-and-trace solution provider that was proven in ensuring supply chain protection and risk mitigation, with the agility to quickly connect and validate the brands within our infrastructure,” says Rick Seibert, SVP Innovation and Technology at Sharp. “Our partnership with TraceLink demonstrates Sharp’s ongoing commitment to deliver on its mission of providing quality products and services to our customers, while complying with the most demanding global and U.S. requirements for drug serialization.”
