Types of numbered labels:

A barcode consists of a short series of black bars of varying thickness. The barcodes can be read with a scanner. A laser or LED technology is used for this.

Barcode labels are most used in supermarkets or in the retail of goods. With a (hand-held) scanner, the barcodes can then be read quickly and no longer must be entered laboriously at the checkout. The barcodes contain information about the product, the price, the address and the date of manufacture. Goods can thus be quickly identified and assigned. Barcode labels are also called barcode labels. Douglas Young invented the barcode as early as 1949. In the 1940s, the code was used for the first time in supermarkets. As a result, waiting times at the checkout were rapidly reduced. The labels contribute significantly to business optimisation.

Industrial labels are extremely important for product identification of printed packaging and for safety information and warnings. For the control of logistical processes, a sequential number or barcode must help in the allocation of machines, goods and equipment. This ensures quick and easy identification. The labels must be resistant to oil, grease, solvents and other chemicals. They must also protect against dirt, dust and scratches.

Labels with QR code are stickers with a QR code printed on them. The QR code, also called "Qiuck response code", is a square graphic and usually contains a link to a website. The labels can be made of paper or foil. The material only needs to be opaque to ensure the best possible readability when scanned. QR codes are particularly popular at trade fairs, for business cards, for advertising flyers and brochures. QR codes can also be photographed with the camera of a mobile phone and take the user to a predetermined website. QR codes are thus a modern way of disseminating information.

EAN labels are "European Article Numbers" on which EAN codes are printed. EAN code is in turn a barcode type in which an article number is encoded. Since 2009, there are no more EAN codes, but today "Global Trade Item Numbers" (GTIN) are encoded in the codes.

Labels with consecutive and constant numbering

We can have our labels with a sequential code printed on different materials. Whether you choose paper labels or foil labels, you will find the right material for your numbered labels with us. The code can be printed in one or four colours with Euro scale. The labels are supplied as roll labels. In addition to the consecutive labels, there are also labels with the same code. Here, too, it is possible to have the labels printed in one colour or four colours with Euro scale. This type of label is particularly suitable to produce numbered property, inventory and inspection labels. Likewise, such numbering can be produced by Labelprint24 for equipment or signs. Thanks to our digital printing system, it is easy for us to personalise your roll labels with consecutive or constant numbers. Especially in sensitive areas, such as the marking of food, laboratory samples or pharmaceutical-chemical products, consecutive numbering is a must for reasons of traceability.
