Why & When are Hybrid Tags Used?
Hybrid Tag is a PTI (Produce Traceability Initiative) term. A Hybrid Tag is a pallet tag that combines product tags from two or more other pallet tags onto one physical pallet. Hybrid tags are used when several incomplete pallets of the same product are put onto one physcial pallet. No one wants to deal with shipping multiple partial pallets of the same product when they can simply be restacked onto one physical pallet.
