  • Introduction to GS1 Barcodes Contents
    Performance, Packaged Introduction to GS1 Barcodes Contents Contents GS1 - The Basics 2 Starting Point - GTIN 3 GTIN Labels for Cases - ITF-14 5 Adding More Data - GS1 128 6 GS1 Application Identifiers 7 Logistics Units - SSCC 8 For Limited Space - GS1 DataMatrix 9 Thank You! 10 Appendix 1 - Barcode Sizes 11 Appendix 2 - Validation vs. Verification 13 Appendix 3 - Barcode Location 14 Appendix 4 - Print Technology 15 GS1 - The Basics In order to use barcodes as a reference number for retail products and in the international supply chain, it is important to have consistent standards - imagine the mess if every manufacturer had to produce different barcodes for Target, Wal-Mart, Kroger, etc. GS1 is the global entity that sets standards for barcodes and data just about everywhere to keep supply chains working. While we tend to think of GS1 in terms of barcodes, the whole GS1 concept is really built around the data - barcodes are just a convenient way of keeping the data where it needs to be and to provide a way it can be captured automatically, when needed - RFID is another way of carrying GS1 data. Consequently, this isn’t going to be a technical document about barcode structures - no x-dimensions, contrast, quiet zones (well, not much!)- we are going to discuss how GS1 data is encoded into barcodes for some industry applications and how those barcodes are used as part of a compliant labeling and marking system. If you need help with your GS1 barcoding, or with any other aspect of your labeling and coding operations, please contact ID Technology.
