GTIN
Colloquially, many know GTIN as a barcode, but technically, GTIN is the number found beneath the barcode symbol itself, and can therefore also be used for other technologies such as 2D barcodes and RFID tags.

GS1-128 pallet labels are used by 94% of the Danish grocery trade.
The barcodes on pallet labels are essential, but getting started can be challenging. The consequences can be significant if the correct information is not included on a pallet label or if it cannot be scanned. We help guide you through the process so your customer can easily receive your shipment.
Here you can find a quick guide to GS1 pallet labels in Danish and English.
En identifikationsnøgle starter altid med et virksomhedspræfiks. Et virksomhedspræfiks er et GS1 ID, som du køber i Mit GS1.
Der findes virksomhedspræfikser i forskellige længder: fra 7 cifre til 11 cifre lange. Det varierer efter antallet af numre, som du har behov for.
Præfikset suppleres med et x antal cifre for at opnå en identifikationsnøgle (for eksempel GTIN).
Jo kortere virksomhedspræfiks, desto flere frie positioner har du til at identificere produkter med. Med andre ord, jo kortere virksomhedspræfiks, desto flere identifikationsnumre kan du oprette. Dette kalder vi 'nummereringskapacitet'.
Det sidste ciffer er et kontrolciffer, der bekræfter, at koden er korrekt.

The GS1-128 barcode is typically used for labeling cases and pallets in logistics operations, such as warehouse or transport handling. The GS1-128 barcode cannot be scanned at retail checkout counters.
Labeling with the GS1-128 barcode, and the exchange of information it enables, forms the basis for traceability of products and shipments.
While the EAN-13 barcode only contains a GTIN, the GS1-128 barcode can contain a wide range of information, such as production or expiration dates, weight, and batch numbers—typically information that varies each time the product is traded.
The information is encoded in the GS1-128 barcode using Application Identifiers (AIs) and their associated data fields. A single GS1-128 barcode can contain up to 48 alphanumeric characters.
GS1 Denmark recommends contacting your customer to agree on which information it is beneficial to encode in the GS1-128 barcode.

The barcode cannot be scanned omnidirectionally, meaning that the unit with the barcode must be passed in front of the scanner at a specific angle.
