Embracing the Future with GS1 Sunrise 2027
In an era of rapid technological advancements, staying ahead in the industry is crucial for every business. At VISIOTT TPS, we are gearing up for an important shift in the landscape of product identification: the GS1 Sunrise 2027 initiative. This U.S.-based project aims to transition from traditional 12 or 13-digit barcodes to more sophisticated 2D codes, which we have considerable experience with.
Understanding GS1 Sunrise 2027
GS1 Sunrise 2027 represents a pivotal change in how products will be marked and identified. The move towards 2D codes, such as QR codes or Data Matrix, is expected to begin in 2027. Initially, both 2D codes and traditional barcodes will be used concurrently on packaging. Post-2027, manufacturers will have the option to fully switch to 2D codes. For a deeper understanding of the types of barcodes, you can refer to our blog on Barcode Types at VISIOTT TPS.
The shift to 2D codes isn’t without merit; these codes offer higher data capacity and provide a cost-effective solution for enhanced traceability and simpler product management. While we won’t delve deeply into all the benefits here, it’s important to recognize the significant improvements 2D codes bring to the table in managing product logistics and data handling.
