Minneapolis, MN, July 9, 2014 - Symbology, Inc. has become a GS1 US Solution Partner. This select group of suppliers represents expert providers of barcode solutions that support the implementation of GS1 Standards. GS1 US is an information standards organization that administers the U.P.C. barcode and brings industry communities together to improve supply-chain business processes through the adoption and implementation of GS1 Standards, the most widely used information standards in the world.

To become a GS1 US Solution Partner, organizations must meet strict requirements and complete professional educational programs to ensure that they are equipped to assist with GS1 Standards implementation and barcode needs for any area in which their company is a provider. For Symbology, those categories range from digital barcodes, sequential labels, and Same Day™ Label Service to barcode verification, and consulting. With over 30 years of barcode experience, Symbology, Inc. was a prime candidate for membership.

"In this partnership with GS1 US, we look forward to big things-helping organizations ensure correct barcode use throughout many industries-for identification, traceability and efficient operations. AIDC (Automatic Identification and Data Capture) continues to increase in importance as technology capabilities advance throughout the world." says John Gorowsky; Vice President, Sales & Marketing at Symbology.

With their extensive knowledge base, Symbology is well versed in the requirements and specifications, as well as the benefits of proper barcode use. On the flip side, they have seen notable disasters occur when organizations fail to adhere to GS1 barcode standards or sufficiently manage item sequencing. Their consultants have helped many companies mitigate the damage caused by such mistakes. Even better, numerous barcode training classes are offered by Symbology to educate users and help them prevent these problems from occurring.

Their pre-printed sequential labels are created for several industries including tire, library, fresh produce, blood, medical labs and material handling. A Same Day™ Label Service is available for those who need labels in a hurry.

To ensure that barcodes produced by clients will scan throughout the chain of use, a full line of barcode verifiers is available…from hand held equipment to high speed inline inspection. All equipment meets applicable ISO/ANSI standards. Knowledgeable staff helps user determine which equipment is right for them….from use with medical devices to coupons.

Digital barcode users are often unaware of the complete details of GS1 US barcode standards and ISO quality inspection. Symbology's proprietary digital file generating system, along with their client service experts ensure that codes are created to function correctly with production procedures.

Enhancing their relationship with GS1 US -moving to the Solution Partner level-will allow Symbology to educate and assist more barcode users to correctly implement their automated identification programs.
