Custom Printed Barcode Labels And Stickers

Enhancing Accuracy with Printed Barcode Labels

One of the primary advantages of employing printed barcode labels in your business, is the increased accuracy in product tracking. Manual methods of product tracking, such as handwritten labelling and manual data entry, are prone to errors, which can lead to inventory misidentification and mismanagement.

Our barcode labels are a dependable and effective approach to correctly tracking and identifying a range of different things. By scanning the barcode on a label, product information such as name, SKU, and price can be instantly accessed from a database. This eliminates the need for human data entry and lowers the risk of errors.

Our barcode labels have a wide range of applications beyond just product identification and tracking. They can also be used for tasks like patient identification in healthcare facilities and asset tracking in offices and businesses. There is a wide range of applications for barcode labels, which can be customised to suit your requirements.

Speeding Up the Tracking Process

Another advantage of using our printed barcode labels is the ability to speed up the tracking process. Barcode labels with EAN (European Article Number) codes are widely used in retail and other industries for efficient and quick tracking of products.

Our barcodes can be printed in a variety of colours, with black and white being the most commonly used for barcode labels and variable data labels. However, there are also other highly contrasting colours to choose from. We can create variable data labels with or without barcode symbols, tailored to your specific requirements.

Barcode labels and variable data labels can be produced using any of the common point-of-sale formats, such as:

EAN-13, EAN-8
UPS-A, UPC-E and
ISBN, ISMN, ISSM barcode label formats

We can also produce barcode labels and variable data labels in a huge range of other symbologies

Industries that use barcodes

Barcode labels are widely used in industries such as retail, manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics. Here are some examples of industries that rely on barcodes for product tracking and identification:

Inventory management and tracking in retail stores

Barcode labels play a crucial role in ensuring smooth inventory management and tracking in retail stores. They facilitate efficient stocktaking, reorder management, and pricing. Through the use of barcode scanning, retailers are able to quickly access product details and maintain up-to-date inventory records. This helps to ensure precise stock levels and minimise the occurrence of out-of-stock scenarios.

Asset tracking in offices and businesses

Barcode labels can be used in a range of office environments to efficiently track assets within offices and businesses. Every asset, including computers, furniture, and equipment, can be assigned a distinct barcode label. By implementing this form of system, your businesses can effectively monitor the whereabouts, state, and maintenance records of their assets, resulting in enhanced asset management and reduced risks of loss or theft. Asset tags with barcodes are a convenient and accurate way to track items that may not have a suitable surface for traditional sticker labels.

Barcode ticketing and access control for events or transportation services

Barcode labels are widely used for ticketing and access control at events or transportation services. These labels enable scanning for ticket validation and access, ensuring a seamless and streamlined process for attendees. Barcode labels offer a reliable and user-friendly solution for effectively managing ticketing and regulating access to venues or transport services.

Barcode labels play a vital role in healthcare facilities, enabling efficient tracking of medical specimens and patients. Every specimen or patient can be assigned a distinct barcode label, ensuring precise tracking and identification. Barcode labels are essential for optimising various processes, including specimen collection, laboratory testing, and patient administration. By using these labels, healthcare facilities can enhance patient safety and improve the overall efficiency of their operations.

Product identification and tracking in warehouses and distribution centres

Barcode labels are essential in warehouses and distribution centres as they enable easy identification and tracking of products.

Every product can have its own barcode label, which allows for streamlined inventory management, order fulfilment, and shipment tracking. Barcode labels are essential for optimising operations, minimising mistakes, and guaranteeing precise inventory management, resulting in improved efficiency and cost savings for warehouse management.
