Labels and markings are used everywhere - from production to retail , from imports to warehouses .

Imagine for a second what an error could cause when scanning a barcode . Omissions due to illegible barcodes , cessation of production processes, breaches of agreements with partners, returned goods, additional costs for re-marking and labeling, loss of production, litigation due to non-compliance with contract terms…

In order to ensure correct reading of the labels , verification of the applied barcodes is required. Let's take a closer look at this topic…

Barcode verification - what is it?

So, you are part of the labeling system, you have optimized your business, you have printed and applied the label, you have put your products into circulation and you are relieved that you have done everything right.

But! When tracking your goods to the end user and putting them out of circulation, the mark will be scanned an indefinite number of times by different barcode scanners . Will each of them correctly recognize the barcodes?

Barcode verification is a preliminary determination of the factors that affect the ability to recognize and decode the mark by all types of readers ( verifiers , scanners , data collection terminals ).

Verification makes it possible to assess the quality of the parameters of printed 1D and 2D barcodes and DPM markings based on the international standard ISO / IEC .

Simply put, your marking , passing verification , will be objectively recognized as correct for scanning .

The verification procedure allows in a few minutes to assess the quality of the codes based on the current requirements and to obtain official confirmation of the legibility class .

In the verification process, the reports for confirmation of the quality of the marking / barcodes are guaranteed. These reports are a guarantee of compliance of your labels with international, legislative and industry requirements .

Even today , process control indicators are used in some industries. Thus, the business tries to monitor the quality of the markings and check them with the help of specialized programs. But unlike verification, this control cannot completely secure your products in the supply chain.

Verification confirms not only the correctness of the format of the data inside the code , but also the quality of its transfer on the label . At the same time, the indicator gives an idea of the markings for specific readers and for specific conditions. That is, "this mark will be read correctly with this scanner at such a scanning and lighting angle". And verification assigns a quality class regardless of these parameters.

Moreover, indicators are often used in specific areas and may not take into account some parameters. And during the verification, absolutely all nuances of quality are controlled in order to exclude cases in which the marking may become illegible at one of the stages.

How important is verification?

Verification is important for both business and the state . For example, in the security sector and in the medical field, verification is a real necessity. Having a class of codes will allow you not to worry that your goods will be lost along the way.

This type of marking allows you to rest assured that the movement of each product at each stage will be visible. And that in whatever warehouse the products arrive, their labels will be read by each scanning device, and the information in them will give an idea of what the goods are, where they come from, etc.

As far as business is concerned, by receiving an absolute assessment of the quality of the markings and certifying that your codes fully comply with industry and international requirements , you will eliminate all problems related to scanning. It doesn't matter what equipment your contractors have - from cameras to line scanners, from handheld to industrial data collection terminals, and so on.
