We are accredited to ISO9001 and are the only UK label manufacturer certified to the Cyber Essentials Plus standard, so you can rest assured that any data you supply to us will be safe.
Beyond the traditional linear barcodes, we are also ahead of the game in providing 2D barcodes, sometimes known as ‘Smart Labels’ which can provide up to 8,000 characters of information within a QR code, whilst also – where an internet connection is available – providing links to more and more additional data online.
Indeed, there is so much regulatory and legislative data required on some products nowadays that there is now a global initiative to transition from the standard linear EAN barcodes to 2D, web enabled QR codes by 2027.
