Production processes of plastic parts evolve very rapidly. 10,000 plastic products (e.g. packaging) can be produced from one ton of plastic, depending on weight and type of plastic. Our conversations with plastic manufacturers revealed that Deposy’s introduction of a unique Product ID would have to keep pace with the speed of these production processes. This is the only way to ensure optimal collaboration between manufacturers and Deposy.

Producers provide the Deposy system with the necessary product information via TCP/IP connection as JSON data format. So far this is practicable for all parties. The data is assigned to the appropriate addresses by Deposy. This is where a blottleneck occurred: Waiting for confirmation of the previous transaction – before a new product can receive its product ID – takes far too long. This is especially true when using only one seed, as is necessary for the Deposy system. On the scale we’re aiming at, there naturally will be many manufacturers with different product ranges.
