A smiling pharmacy worker wearing a white lab coat places a medicine box on a shelf in a bright pharmacy stocked with medications. The image is branded with the Mercian Labels logo in the top-left corner. Across the lower middle of the image, large text reads “Serialised Barcodes for Stocktaking” above a prominent barcode graphic. A dark blue banner at the bottom states “World Class Labels,” with a green section below referencing sustainability in labelling and a “Mercian zero” logo in the corner.

Serialised barcodes

Stocktaking success with Serialised Barcodes

When accuracy matters, businesses need more than just a barcode label, they need complete confidence in every barcode they scan.

That’s why specialists in the warehousing, manufacturing, retail, pharmaceuticals, chemicals and logistics sectors are increasingly turning to serialised barcode labels to improve efficiency, accuracy and traceability.

Unlike standard barcodes which share the same code for an entire product batch, serialised barcodes create a series of uniquely identifiable barcodes; that can be created within a set range, defined by you; which allow organisations like yours to track and trace individual items across their entire product life.

They are mandatory in regulated industries like pharmaceuticals and chemicals where they ensure quality control, streamline product recalls and prevent counterfeiting.

They also simplify the customer service process when it comes to warranty and maintenance as they can link an individual item to its purchase date and repair history.

 

100% Barcode Verification

To ensure complete accuracy Mercian Labels inline verify every barcode as it is printed, even at full press speeds.

This ensures:

✅ 100% accuracy

✅ No duplications

✅ Complete sequential integrity

✅ Reliable scanning performance

 

Thereby giving you complete confidence that every label supplied is checked and ready for use.

 

Colour coding sequences for enhanced control

For larger stocktaking projects, the labels can be produced with different coloured backgrounds to identify specific count ranges, departments, warehouse zones or count teams.

This colour coding provides a clear visual reference that improves operations and reduces the risk of counting errors.

 

Easy Peel Adhesives

As many stocktaking projects require labels that can be easily and cleanly removed once counting is complete, Mercian Labels also offer the option of having your barcode labels supplied with a peelable adhesive.

 

Your serialised barcode labels, just how you like them.

With 100% verified, reliable print quality, serialised barcode labels, using the numbers or codes you need, with the options of removable adhesive and bespoke colour coding, Mercian Labels delivers the very best stocktaking labels that help organisations of any size to save time, improve accuracy, and streamline inventory management processes.
