UBS Tackles Major Industrial Marking Challenges: Harsh Environments, Regulatory Compliance, and Supply Chain Efficiency

From extreme environments to hazardous materials, product marking has become a strategic element in today’s supply chains. United Barcode Systems highlights three key areas to ensure efficient, safe, and compliant identification.

1. Reliable Marking in Extreme Conditions

Industries such as food, construction, and chemicals often operate in environments with high temperatures, humidity, dust, or irregular surfaces. To address these challenges, United Barcode Systems offers high-resolution inkjet printing solutions paired with specially formulated inks to ensure excellent adhesion and legibility—even under the most demanding conditions.

By using durable and reliable equipment, manufacturers can maintain uninterrupted traceability, ensuring each product retains its identification throughout the entire logistics process.

2. Compliant Labeling for Hazardous Materials

Transporting and handling hazardous goods requires clear, durable labeling that meets GHS/CLP standards. Accurate printing of pictograms, codes, and warnings is critical to ensuring logistics safety and regulatory compliance.

United Barcode Systems develops systems capable of simultaneous red and black printing, such as the APLINK HRX BICOLOR, to highlight hazard warnings with high visibility and precision, printed directly on primary or secondary packaging.

3. Smart Marking for a More Efficient Supply Chain

A well-planned marking strategy doesn’t just improve traceability—it also optimizes logistics, reduces errors, and speeds up storage and distribution processes. Connected industrial coders that integrate with MES or ERP systems help automate critical tasks and reduce downtime.

In addition, direct marking eliminates the need for adhesive labels, cutting costs and waste. Altogether, this results in a more agile, sustainable, and competitive supply chain.
