The Company
Working side by side with you to reach your compliance goals.
We know how to achieve transparent and compliant supply chains.
GTS Global Traceability Solutions was founded in 2010 with the aim of simplifying the complexity caused by different and constantly changing supply chain regulations and counteracting the lack of transparency in global business.
Our team’s more than 30 years of experience in traceability and sustainability have enabled us to develop a user-friendly, scalable and cost-effective solution.
We are aware that achieving transparent and legally compliant supply chains is challenging.
As governments increasingly regulate the origin of products and consumers become more environmentally conscious, it can be difficult to keep up with developments without cutting corners or getting bogged down in paperwork.
RADIX Tree was developed to address the complexities of compliance caused by the European Timber Regulation, which will be surpassed by the European Deforestation-free Regulation from December 2025.
The platform makes it easier for you to network with your suppliers along the entire supply chain. Our flexible and intuitive tool enables you to track products, check supplier data, while digitising and optimising your entire compliance process.

Our story.
How our software grows with the law.
The EU enacts the EU Timber Regulation to ensure ethical supply chains for timber.
Partnering with private and institutional investors, Ulrich Heindl founds GTS with the purpose of developing a solution to simplify and accelerate supply chain compliance.
GTS launches its RADIX Tree platform, which is being developed in collaboration with leading DIY stores.
After further perfecting the solution, GTS opens its product to FMCG companies and certifying organisations.
The EUTR enters into force.
GTS is able to provide the best solution on the market to meet the requirements of the supply chain compliance and appeal to a wider customer base. GTS keeps innovating its platform and shaping it as customer-oriented as possible.
The EU extends the EUTR to soy, cocoa and chocolate, coffee, cattle, palm oil, timber and rubber and approves the EU Deforestation-free Regulation.
RADIX Tree is updated to be compliant with the new regulation.
The EUDR comes into effect.
Companies can rely on GTS, with more than 10 years of experience in supply chain compliance, to effectively manage the complexity of the new regulatory environment. RADIX Tree is here to ensure the best experience.
We believe that better global supply chains are possible and achievable with the right tools.
With RADIX Tree, companies have full control over their supply chains, enabling them to make informed decisions about compliance and sustainability. Since the launch of RADIX Tree, thousands of companies from multinationals to small producers – have trusted us to support them in reaching their business goals.
