Each barcode location label leaving ASG is different from another, the design, the content, colors, material, and more, combine to make a unique label for a unique pallet location in a unique facility. At ASG Services, we produce designs in mono and full color print. Color rack location labels are used to help differentiate racking levels, storage zones and in some cases, product groups.
Our specialist software is developed specifically to handle mass variable data in multi field designs which makes it possible for us to print high definition barcodes, alpha, numeric and alphanumeric content with ease. We work closely with customers to establish the best design and content to suit their needs. Often customers will have a predetermined design, others can draw from our experience and archive for a custom design. Read more about our storage location data management.
We utilize the latest print technology to create our rack labels. At ASG we believe a high performing barcode is critical to meeting the demands of the fast moving industry they work in. Barcode scanners have vastly improved in the past 10 years and will now scan most qualities of barcode, but not all facilities have the latest technology and performance, so we uphold this policy and produce the very best pallet location labels we can.
Advanced materials in label production are important for industrial use, ASG’s polyester rack labels are among the toughest available thanks to the characteristics of polyester. We find that polyester barcode label designs withstand more damaging impacts than any other base material. In addition, we also apply a laminate for customers who would like to protect the print further. The laminate is also high grade polyester.
Most rack labels can be produced as singles or on rolls. The way they are presented is entirely up to the customer, some prefer to have all labels on a roll which can prevent them being mishandled, others prefer singles as it is often easier to install them.

We are not a graphic design studio but we are capable of designing any label layout required. Variable content data and multi field options are possible, our only restriction on the number of barcodes and characters is the size of label you request. We will always suggest a size which best suits your requirements.
Yes, simply because the raw materials we need to create color labels are more expensive, however once an order is over a certain size, the extra cost becomes negligible.
It is true that location labels do not need color to work, but we recommend color to help the users identify key location information quicker. Color is know to improve speed of identification, to read more visit our warehouse color coding article.
Color identification may be used as a level indicator on racking where each level in a rack bay has a unique color, so as the operative looks up, they can distinguish the level quickly and shorten their reading time. It can also be used as a zone identifier particularly with bulk storage floor locations, aisle groups in racking and shelving is another.
Another well represented use of color is with warehouse striping for staging lanes, bulk storage bays and walkways. See our warehouse striping page for more information.
Some customers use it for aesthetics for their in-house branding.
Yes, these are a common request from our customers looking for pick accuracy improvements.
The barcode you choose to use is dependent on your location or product reference data requirements.
Although we are able to produce almost any barcode type you require, Code 128 is by far the most requested by the storage and logistics industry. This is impart due to the range of characters which can be used (128), being all digits, characters and punctuation and because of its data to size percentage, lots of data can be stored in this narrow width barcode.
Code 39 is the next most popular, which is less useful in terms of characters it can encode, but it is great for its simplicity and ease of scanning capabilities. This is often used with operations handling product specific references and a need to work quickly.
More recently we have been asked for DataMatrix and QR Codes which can contain huge amounts of data compared to linear barcodes.
Yes, if we have a sample or measurements and a good image we can copy your label almost exactly.
