Introduction

National Standard of the People's Republic of China GB/T 44899-2024 Coding and Representation of Commodity Barcodes for Bulk and Bulk Commodities

1. Background of Standardization and Analysis of Technology Evolution

With the globalization and informatization of commodity circulation, standardized commodity identification systems have become the basis of modern logistics and trade. The formulation of GB/T 44899-2024 aims to unify the coding and barcode representation rules for bulk and bulk commodities, improve commodity circulation efficiency, and adapt to the development needs of modern information technology.

2. Comparison of standard frameworks

3. Implementation Suggestions

Case Study: Barcode Application for Bulk Apples

A supermarket sells apples in bulk per kilogram, and the assigned GTIN-13 is 6901234888881. When purchasing 1.5 kg, the barcode label contains the following information:
AI (O1) indicates GTIN: 6901234888881
AI (3101) indicates weight: 1.5 kg
AI (11) indicates production date: August 1, 2024
AI (3921) indicates total price: 7.5 yuan

Case study: Barcode application of bulk coal

A supplier sells bulk anthracite in tons, and the assigned GTIN-14 is 96901234567895. When the order is for 100 tons of coal, the GS1-128 barcode is used to represent the accompanying document information:

  • AI (O1): GTIN 96901234567895
  • AI (3101): Actual weight of each vehicle

Case study: Barcode application of steel products

A steel company sells grade 3 earthquake-resistant rebar with specifications of H300×200×8×12, and the assigned GTIN-14 is 96901234432100. When a customer orders 150 steel bars, the barcode information includes:

  • AI (O1): GTIN 96901234432100
  • AI (3100): total weight 30.02 tons
  • AI (30): total quantity 150 bars
