What barcode system do warehouses use?
Most warehouses use Code 128 for its high data density and support for alphanumeric characters. Large operations may use GS1-128 (a Code 128 variant with standardized data fields).
What is GS1-128 vs Code 128?
GS1-128 is a subset of Code 128 that uses standardized Application Identifiers (AIs) to encode structured data like batch numbers, expiry dates, and serial numbers.
How many characters can a Code 128 barcode hold?
Code 128 can encode up to around 48 characters before the barcode becomes too wide for reliable scanning. For warehouse use, 15-20 characters is ideal.
