2D Code Requirement Starting in 2027
The demands on packaging coding and marking are increasing every day. As of 2027, GS1 will recommend the worldwide adoption of 2D codes.
These next-generation codes can carry far more information, including batch numbers, expiry dates, traceability data, and much more.
This means that many companies will have to make significant technical and organizational adjustments. Those who prepare early will be able to secure and future-proof their processes while avoiding temporary solutions.
LEIBINGER systems process variable data in real time and apply machine-readable codes with the highest reliability. At the same time, they are stable, precise, and cost-efficient.
