Serialized Barcodes
Serialized Barcodes & QR Codes on
Printed Pouches
Have you ever needed to track an individual product (or your entire inventory) for QA or safety reasons once it's been packaged and shipped to your vendors? Looking for a way to "prove" product authenticity to your customers? Thanks to CarePac's innovative serialized labels, we make inventory management easier than ever before, allowing you to achieve the maximum value from your product packaging.
Benefits of using serialized labels
There are a few key benefits to printing custom serialized labels onto your packaging, including better inventory control, improving engagement with the consumers of your product, and protecting your brand from imitators.
Keep track of a large amount of product
With custom barcode labels, you can track your product throughout the supply chain. This can help improve logistics and will allow you to identify delays or minor issues before they become major shipping catastrophes. The unique identifier on the serialized label can help you track your products from the point of purchase through disposal, putting more data into your hands.
These barcode labels can help you keep track of inventory, making manufacturing and shipping products across multiple industries easier than ever before.
Enhance engagement with consumers
Let's face it: a disengaged and disinterested retail customer isn't likely to buy your product again. By allowing them to scan the little black and white squares on a QR code to learn more about your company, you're one step closer to developing long-term relationships with your customers. Here are a few different ways you can use serialization labels to create and enhance brand loyalty:
If you're a manufacturer of food products, share recipe ideas or provide information about the farmer or chef who had a hand in growing or concocting the product. This helps a consumer learn more about the supply chain of their food.
Use the serialized barcode labels to promote contests, promotions, or special discounts.
With one simple scan, allow a customer to join your loyalty program. This is an easy way for companies to establish brand loyalty, collect data on their target market, and increase sales. Just make sure you comply with local laws and regulations about data privacy.
Improve traceability for recalls
No industry is immune from product recalls. If you've ever gone through a product recall before, you understand how important it is to have serialized barcode labels that have a starting number and automatically increment from there. To ensure this kind of serialization, you'll need to use a machine that scans the bar code as the product is being inserted into the package -- this way, you can use the serialized labels to know exactly when and where the bag was filled.
Ideally, your product would never be recalled. But preparing for such a situation with barcode labels that are easily scanned and traced will never hurt.
QR & barcode labels: FAQs
Here are some common questions we receive about barcode labels and QR codes on product packaging.
What is a serialized barcode on custom pouch packaging?
These are QR codes which uniquely identify each unit of a product. Essentially each bag gets its own unique identification code.
How do barcode labels or QR codes benefit packaging?
Serialized labels benefit custom pouch packaging as long as they are integrated into the product’s supply chain, because these can be used for tracking any quality issues in the final product. For example if you’re getting several individuals saying your coffee beans taste a bit off, then you can use the serialized QR code to trace back that individual coffee roasting from the manufacturer.
Can I customize the serialized labels or QR codes for my brand?
Yes, you can incorporate your own serialized ID numbering system. This unique identifier can be added directly onto the label in the form of a barcode, creating a simple way for you to track the location of your product.
How do serialization labels enhance traceability and product authenticity?
By including information like the date packaged and the production facility onto the labels, you can enhance traceability. For authenticity, since each pouch receives it’s own barcode, it would be easy to link this with a online portal so a customer can check if the pouch they received is authentic.
What information can serialized barcodes hold?
- Manufacturing date and address location barcode labels
- Expiration dates
- Ingredient lists, or links to relevant information too long to include on the packaging
- Instructional materials, or links to videos
- Unique identifying data to reduce counterfeit products.
How secure and tamper-proof are barcodes with a serial number?
Barcodes with a unique number that's added during the printing process use an encrypted key (hash) in a typical public/private key arrangement, which makes duplicating them very difficult. This is one of the key benefits of using barcodes with serialization.
