GS1 & ETIM Product Data Management for Electronics Suppliers

Electronics manufacturers and suppliers manage thousands of technical product attributes, specifications and logistics details. Retailers, distributors and installers increasingly require complete, standardised and validated product information to support efficient sales and supply chain processes.


Qmica helps organisations transform existing ERP or PIM data into GS1 and ETIM-compliant product information, validate it against the latest standards and publish confidently to GS1-certified data pools, distributors and retail partners.

Data Standard

REQUIRED
GS1 Global Data Model

Data standard

Defines the core trade item structure, packaging hierarchy and logistics information required for retail and GDSN publication across home and interior categories.

Custom data models

Custom Data Model

Not every data exchange follows GS1 or ETIM. Many organisations require their own structure, attributes and validation logic.

Qmica allows you to define and manage your own data models alongside industry standards.

MARKET REQUIRED
ETIM Classification

ETIM

ETIM is a technical classification model where products are defined by classes and features rather than marketing attributes.

Why this standard applies

Pet food requires ingredient transparency and nutritional data, while accessories require technical attributes.


Industry Challenges

Managing product data for electronics and electrical products requires accurate technical specifications alongside complete commercial and logistics information. Suppliers often face challenges such as:
