Barcodes have become the conduit connecting physical items to the digital world. Since the inception of the UPC, we have assisted hundreds of thousands of companies with their barcoding needs by specializing in barcode origination, print quality and data management. As the leading US barcode identification authority, we empower companies to comply with respective GS1 and ISBN global guidelines and also specific trading partner requirements. Our services are utilized by retailers and manufacturers of all sizes.
We Are The Standards Experts
Our reliance and appreciation for standards has enabled us to provide our clients best-in-class solutions. Due to the reliance on barcode identification by both the retail and healthcare industries, Bar Code Graphics supports the global GS1 standards. To that extent, we actively participate in the GS1 Global Standards Development Work Groups (GSMP Identification SMG). Bar Code Graphics is not affiliated with GS1 but many of our employees and solutions have undergone various past certifications.
We are avid promoters of the GS1 global identification standards and educate both retailers and suppliers on the benefits of compliance. We work with many of the largest US retailers and make sure their supplier requirements are in harmony with the GS1 Global Standards. In addition, Bar Code Graphics’s Publisher Services division is a partner of the US ISBN Agency.
To address the needs of other non-retail industries, we routinely work with other standards and industry associations such as; BISG (Book Industry), AIAG (Automotive), ACP (Coupon) and ECIA (Electronic Component Industry Association).
We Are Educators
We recognize the importance of teaching our clients about their identification needs. Bar Code Graphics excels because of its commitment to customer support. Our straightforward approach to addressing clients’ needs enables us to leverage our team’s specialties and deliver value driven solutions. The amount of information and misinformation online is tremendous so companies of all sizes rely on our support services to maintain compliance for both GS1 and ISBN standards.
