GS1 Australia
| Global supply chain system of standards
GS1 Australia administers the GS1 System. The GS1 System is the most implemented bar coding and supply chain standards system in the world. We provide bar code numbers and solutions to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of supply chain management.
GS1 Bar Codes are the most well-known and universally recognisable part of the GS1 System. Every day, at least 5 billion bar codes are read all over the planet. The majority of these bar codes encode bar code numbers known as Global Trade Identification Numbers (GTINs).
Not only do GS1 provide bar codes, we work with you to ensure you are provided with the right support with a cost effective solution for your supply chain.
The GS1 System of standards includes:
Numbering standards: e.g. Global Trade Identification Number (GTIN), Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC), Global Location Number (GLN)
Bar Coding standards: e.g. EAN/UPC, ITF-14, GS1-128, GS1 DataBar (formerly RSS)
Electronic messaging standards: EANCOM, GS1 XML
Online data synchronisation: GS1net is part of the Global Data Synchronisation Network (GDSN) compliant data pool – a global registry synchronising with retailers and other purchasing hubs creating access to world wide markets
GS1 EPCglobal standards: Electronic Product Code (EPC) supports the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) in supply chains e.g. EPC Information Services (EPCIS) is used to share information, and EPC Class 1 Gen 2 UHF standard (Gen 2 EPC Protocol) is in RFID readers, tags and in protocol communications between tags and readers.
GS1 Australia is a not-for-profit organisation that registers and issues GTINs. It is the only organisation authorised by GS1 Global to allocate and administer GTINs in Australia.
