How to Achieve Perfect Barcode Printing with BT Print's Solutions

Whether identifying products, managing inventory, or ensuring smooth workflows, barcode printing is essential for industrial applications. BT Print provides advanced solutions to achieve reliable and precise barcode printing, catering to various industries.

Industries That Use Barcode and Variable Barcode Printing

Barcodes are utilized in various sectors, including:

• Retail: For pricing, inventory control, and billing.
• Food and Beverage: Track production, batch codes, and expiry dates.
• Pharmaceuticals: For drug traceability and compliance with anti-counterfeiting laws.
• Logistics and Supply Chain: For efficient tracking and warehouse management.
• Automotive: For tracking parts and ensuring quality control.
• Healthcare: For managing medical equipment and inventory.
• E-commerce: To enable accurate inventory and shipping management.

Understanding Barcodes vs. Variable Barcodes

A standard barcode contains static data like product ID or price, while a variable barcode contains dynamic information such as batch numbers, manufacturing dates, or serial codes. Variable barcodes are especially beneficial in industries like food, pharmaceuticals, and logistics, where traceability and compliance are critical.
