Introduction
Interpretation of the National Standard of the People's Republic of China GB/T 36080—2018
Application Specification of Barcode Technology in Cold Chain Logistics of Agricultural Products
Background and Significance of Standard Formulation
With the rapid development of my country's agricultural product cold chain logistics industry, the demand for logistics efficiency and product quality traceability is increasing. GB/T 36080—2018 standard came into being, aiming to improve the information tracking capability and management efficiency in the cold chain logistics process through barcode technology.
Comparison and analysis of standard frameworks
| Dimensions | GB/T 36080—2018 | Comparison of international advanced standards |
|---|---|---|
| Encoding rules | Adopt internationally accepted encoding systems such as GTIN, SSCC, GLN, and are compatible with GS1 global standards. | Complies with ISO/IEC 16022 and ANSI/UCC 1.12 to ensure interoperability. |
| Symbol representation | Supports one-dimensional barcodes (EAN/UPC, ITF-14) and two-dimensional barcodes (Hanxin Code, QR Code, Data Matrix). | Covering the main automatic identification technologies, adapting to the needs of different application scenarios. | Quality inspection | Strictly stipulate the requirements for label materials and environmental adaptability. | Meet the high requirements of international standards for durability and reliability. |
Detailed explanation of core coding rules
1. Agricultural product trade item code (GTIN)
The trade item code is expressed in GTIN, supporting four structures: GTIN-14, GTIN-13, GTIN-12 and GTIN-8. Table 1 shows the data structure of GTIN-14:
| Indicator | GTIN of included item (excluding check digit) | Check digit |
|---|---|---|
| N | Nz Ns N4 Ns N Nz Ng Ng N1o N11 N12 N13 | N14 |
2. Cold Chain Logistics Unit Code (SSCC)
SSCC is used to represent the cold chain logistics unit. The encoding data structure is shown in Table 6:
| Application Identifier (AI) | Extension Digit | Manufacturer Identification Code Serial Number | Check Digit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 00 | N1 | N2 N, NN, N. N, Ng Ng N1o N11 N12 N13 N14 N15 N16 N17 | N18 |
3. Cold chain logistics participant code (GLN)
Cold chain logistics participants use GLN code, see Table 7:
| Manufacturer identification code location reference code | Check digit |
|---|---|
| N Nz N N4 Ns Ng N Ng Ng Nio Ni1 N12 | N13 |
Implementation suggestions
1. System selection and integration
Enterprises should choose system solutions that are compatible with multiple barcode technologies to ensure information interoperability in all links.
2. Label design and production
Labels must meet standard requirements, and material selection must consider durability in cold chain environments.
3. Training and process optimization
Provide standardized training for relevant personnel, optimize existing logistics operation processes, and maximize the efficiency improvement brought by barcode technology.
