Ensure your barcodes work every time!

Our 'Barcode Verification' service ensures your barcodes meet global standards. We test the scannability of different barcode types and ensure their optimum performance. Barcodes are assessed against multiple parameters to ascertain they work with all types of scanners, including mobile apps. This helps businesses mitigate issues such as scanning errors (loss of sale), higher operational costs, shipping delays, compliance problems, reputational damage, and inventory mismanagement.

Key parameters for barcode verification

To ensure omni-directional scannability it is advisable to print barcodes of the recommended size provided in the GS1 specifications.

Print contrast

Black bars on a white background are the most preferred barcode print contrast.

Verify barcodes with confidence

We scan your barcodes minutely on the above-mentioned parameters. Upon completion, you will also receive a comprehensive barcode verification report that can be shared with your trading partners. The report shall provide grading to the print quality of your barcodes and specify if your barcodes have passed/failed the check. Scanning barcodes at your end will not guarantee your barcodes will work everywhere and for every scanner, hence, it is recommended that companies verify their barcodes with us (before bulk printing and making supplies) to avoid operational errors and costly mistakes.
