Batch Production Record
Record the batch codes going in and the destinations going out, so a recall or a complaint can be traced to one day's production rather than all of it.
Craft and making · CM-08
A free printable batch record — every component with its supplier and lot number, quantities, method, yield and how it performed.
2 pages. Choose your paper size — both versions are laid out identically, so neither one gets shrunk to fit.
Print it and write on it
Fill it in type and save
The fillable versions have real form fields — open them in any PDF reader, type into them and save. Printing help.
Make a batch traceable, so a good one can be repeated and a bad one can be traced back to what went into it.
Candle makers, soapers, bath and body makers, and anyone selling what they make.
The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
Because if a supplier recalls a component, or a batch behaves oddly, the lot number is the only thing that tells you which of your products are affected.
No. Those come from your supplier's technical data and from the safety rules that apply where you sell. A printable is the wrong place to get them, and we are not going to pretend otherwise.
Record the batch codes going in and the destinations going out, so a recall or a complaint can be traced to one day's production rather than all of it.
Record the things a finished object cannot tell you later: which dye lot, which hook you really used, and how much was left over.
Work out what a dish actually costs to make as you make it, including the trimmings, so a price is set from a figure rather than a feeling.
We are building this library out steadily. Leave an address and we will send the new sheets as they are finished — nothing else, and no more than one email a week.
Sign-up is not live yet — we have not connected an email provider, so this form is switched off rather than quietly collecting addresses.
