A standardized barcode label system that uses GS1-128 barcoding technology to encode Serial Shipping Container Codes (SSCC) for unique identification of logistics units throughout the supply chain. These labels contain essential shipping and tracking information in both human-readable text and machine-readable barcode format, including destination details, carrier information, and the unique 18-digit SSCC number.
UCC128 labels are critical for automated warehouse operations, enabling seamless tracking from initial packaging through final delivery. They facilitate accurate receiving, inventory management, and shipment verification while ensuring compliance with trading partner requirements and industry standards. The standardized format allows different warehouse management systems, carriers, and trading partners to automatically capture and process shipment data without manual intervention.
For example, when a pallet leaves your warehouse with a UCC128 label, retailers like Walmart can instantly scan and identify the contents, origin, and routing information, streamlining the entire receiving process.
