The US FDA has proposed additions to the Food Safety and Modernization Act (FSMA) to enforce traceability-record keeping requirements that will include shell eggs.  The proposed rule entitled "Requirements for Additional Traceability Records for Certain Foods" establishes the need for records that must be maintained in an electronic form that is retrievable to facilitate traceback.

Sanovo packing and grading installations have traceability options with the GraderPro offering single egg traceability from loading through to packing.

Sanovo has experience in traceability based on the introduction of the European General Food Law of 2005, requiring egg traceability that will now be required in the U.S.
