The hazardous chemicals industry in China has faced increasing regulatory scrutiny in recent years, with the introduction of traceability code policies across different provinces and municipalities. Starting with Guangdong Province in 2021, these policies have introduced QR codes to enhance safety, traceability, and oversight of hazardous chemicals. However, the lack of a unified national approach has led to significant challenges for companies. With each region enforcing its own version of the QR code requirements, compliance has become inconsistent and costly for businesses operating across multiple regions. Moreover, the lack of national endorsement for a single, standardised approach has made companies hesitant to invest in necessary system modifications, such as changes to SAP systems, which are resource and time-intensive.
