GS1 Bar Code Standards


GS1 Bar Code Standards Keep Things Moving

For more than thirty years, GS1 bar code standards have been the international language of business. The ubiquitous symbols have directed massive shipments of industrial parts and sped up checkout at the library.  They have allowed grocery stores to offer you coupons personalized to reflect your shopping habits.  They have allowed food distributors to track and trace efficiently in case of a recall.  They have become so much a part of our daily life that we barely notice them anymore—unless your business depends on them.

GS1 bar code standards recognize a number of different bar code types, and which you should use will depend on your specific application. Since different types have different strengths and weaknesses, GS1 will select the bar code that best fits your particular application.  The bar codes used by GS1 include EAN/UPC, GS1 DataBar, GS1-128, ITF-14, GS1 DataMatrix, and Composite Component.
