Benefits of Trusted Data

Save considerable time and hassle
If you're creating or updating a product database, you can simply tap into pre-existing information, created and updated directly by suppliers. Please be aware that it is suppliers' responsibility - and in their interests to maintain their data to a high standard. 

Real-time updates
Whenever a product is updated, introduced or removed from the market, suppliers are required to update their information in National Product Catalogue - to ensure their trading partners have access to the very latest details.

Range of uses
Many different businesses make use of GS1 Australia Trusted Data, including research organisations, government agencies, analytics companies, web and smartphone application developers, and third party solution providers.

Flexible formats
When creating your database, simply choose which fields are relevant to you and your business. This could include barcode numbers, company names, product descriptions, packaging type, dimensions, healthcare specific attributes, delivery options and more.
