Understanding Our Barcode Standards
European Article Number (EAN-13)
The EAN-13 (International Article Number) is the global standard for product identification. It consists of a 13-digit code used worldwide, especially across Africa and Europe, to identify specific retail products from specific manufacturers.
Universal Product Code (UPC-12)
The UPC-12 is the primary barcode symbology used for tracking trade items. It is a 12-digit code that is the standard for retail packaging in the United States and Canada, though it is accepted globally.
