With the standardised labelling of your products, you guarantee the transfer of all required product data:
For a fast and efficient exchange of information - worldwide!
In the age of digitalisation, it is not only the fully automated recording and networking of goods that is absolutely necessary in order to be able to work effectively. The unambiguous exchange of information – the transfer of specific product data – is now also essential in order to be able to handle the national and international movement of goods quickly and smoothly!
International standards are the basis for the uncomplicated transport of product data. GS1 is a network of non-profit organisations that develop, negotiate and maintain these global standards for cross-company processes.
The basis for these standards are the globally unique GS1 identification numbers for e.g: Articles (GTIN), locations (GLN) or shipping units (SSCC), which are used as barcodes for automatic recording. They enable the exchange of information between producers, logisticians, retailers and consumers and help them to organise the value chain more efficiently and securely. Companies from a wide range of industries, the healthcare sector, public administration and international supervisory authorities benefit from digital data exchange based on international standards, not least because of legal requirements.
Standards as a success factor - your advantages:
- Easy fulfilment of legal requirements
- More safety for patients in the healthcare sector
- Information sharing for consumers in the food sector
- Protection against product counterfeiting in all industries

- Lower costs and faster handling for business processes
