Ensuring your barcodes scan on the first time and
every time, all over the world.
What is GS1 Barcode Verification?
Quality barcodes means more surety and a less problematic supply chain performance. Testing barcodes through a barcode verifier prevents the costs associated with non-compliance, and promotes stronger trade partner relationships. GS1 will test your barcodes to ensure that they scan the first time, every time.
For the best results, barcodes should be submitted in their final form, however we also test artwork, labels and packaging. We provide either a final report or an interim report depending on the type of barcode submitted for testing. We test on varying aspects – including compliance to global standards, size, colour, print quality, numbering and more.
Once testing is complete, we will provide you with a GS1 South Africa Barcode Verification Report, indicating the compliance of your barcode and if necessary, any changes or adjustments you may need to make.
