Our
involvement with item identification and
barcodes resulted from our participation
with the Uniform Code Council's technical
committee for creating the printing
specifications for UPC symbols in 1974.
When the book industry began publication
identification, we also contributed to the
industry requirements and consequently began
assisting publishers of all sizes.
Since then we have emerged as both a leading
service bureau for bar code artwork and
preprinted tags/labels as well the top
authority on bar code symbol quality.
Today we have
an impressive client base of over 31,000
companies. Our customers range from small
independent publishers to the top worldwide
retailers. In order to keep
our customers up to date on the most current
technology and specifications, we are
actively involved with varying bar code
technical committees for industries
including Publishing, Printing, Retail,
Healthcare, and Automotive.
Our success
is a result of our commitment to the highest
standards in product quality, innovative
technology and extraordinary customer
service. Under a single corporate umbrella,
we provide an array of products and services
geared at being the "best in class" for
their categories.

The
Trading Partner Information Exchange (ww.tradingpartner.info)
Since retail
suppliers are challenged by varying
requirements which constantly change and
stiff penalties for non-compliance, it
is imperative that they remain current
on all their customers' business
requirements (EDI, Routing, Vendor
Manual). The Trading Partner
Information Exchange is a source for
retail trading partner data and provides
an announcement service which will
direct vendors to a retailer's supplier
website when necessary.
Premium
Blank Laser Label Media
Our blank
laser labels far and away the best stock
available for use on sheet-fed laser
printers. By utilizing a high imaging
face stock, aggressive adhesive, and an
un-gummed perimeter (1/64") around each
die cavity, our label stock provides
consistent print quality and reduces
printer maintenance.
"We'll take
advantage of every technology available, to

is clear...to be the best supplier our
customers do business with."
