Varefakta is an official partner of GS1 Denmark.

Product data is connected across the entire supply chain

Varefakta and GS1 support different aspects of product data management.

Varefakta helps companies with labelling, product declarations, regulatory assessments, environmental claims, and responsible supply chain practices, ensuring that product information is accurate, trustworthy, and compliant.

GS1 ensures that product data is correctly structured and ready to be shared efficiently with customers, trading partners, and digital channels.

How GS1 can help you

GS1 offers a wide range of standards and services for sharing product data across the supply chain. Below are the solutions that are particularly relevant for Varefakta customers.

Share product data efficiently with costumers and trading partners

Once your product data is correctly structured, GS1 makes it easy to share it across the supply chain.

Many companies use Varefakta to manage product declarations and product information, while GS1 supports the efficient sharing of that data with customers, wholesalers, retailers, and digital platforms.

This reduces manual processes and makes it easier to maintain accurate, up-to-date product data in one place.

Keep product data and declarations aligned

Accurate and consistent product data is essential throughout the supply chain.

Varefakta helps you manage product declarations and regulatory information, while GS1 standards ensure that your data remains consistent across systems and trading partners.

This creates better alignment between product data, packaging, and digital channels.

Manage product images and data in one place

GS1 makes it easy to manage product images and product data in one place, making it simple to share them across e-commerce platforms, product catalogues, and marketing channels.

For companies already using Varefakta to manage product information, this provides an efficient way to keep declarations, images, and other product data connected.

Gain better control of packaging data

More and more companies are facing increasing requirements for packaging data and documentation.

GS1 enables you to collect and structure packaging information in one place, making it easier to use the data across systems, with customers, and for regulatory reporting.

It is a valuable complement to your existing work with product information and product declarations.

GS1 is a global, neutral, not-for-profit organisation that helps businesses structure and share product data using systems built on global standards. We are probably best known as the organisation behind the barcode - the standard used on products in virtually every store around the world.

GS1 and Varefakta have formed a partnership to make it easier to do business in Denmark. As a Varefakta customer, you already work with product information. GS1 helps you make better use of that data by enabling you to structure, manage, and share it efficiently with customers and trading partners.

What are the benefits of using GS1's solutions?

You'll save time by reducing manual processes, minimise errors in your product data, and make it easier to collaborate with customers and trading partners. In short, your product data becomes more valuable and easier to use in your day-to-day business.

Do we need to replace our existing systems to get started?

Udvid ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt plus indenisammenfold ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt minus indeni

No. GS1's solutions can typically be integrated with the systems you already use. We can also help you integrate GS1 with your existing platforms, whether you're just getting started or looking for more advanced functionality.

Are GS1's solutions only relevant for large companies?

Udvid ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt plus indenisammenfold ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt minus indeni

No - in many cases, quite the opposite. Larger companies often have the resources to manage data-intensive processes in-house, whereas this can be a much greater challenge for smaller businesses. GS1 gives companies of all sizes access to standards, solutions, and services that would otherwise be costly and resource-intensive to develop and maintain themselves.

How long does it take to get started?

Udvid ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt plus indenisammenfold ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt minus indeni

It depends on your current setup, but many companies can get started relatively quickly. We usually begin with a short introductory conversation to understand your needs and help you find the solution that's right for your business.

How much does it cost?

Udvid ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt plus indenisammenfold ikon - en mørkeblå cirkel med et mørkeblåt minus indeni

The cost depends on the solutions and services you need. We're happy to provide an overview so you can assess what makes the most sense for your business.
