What is it?

  A Shipping Container Code, a 14-digit barcode placed on the outside of your shipping carton or pallet, allows your retailer to scan your shipment of multiple units of your product as it comes into their warehouse.

Used in most retail situations, a Shipping Container Code may also be referred to as a Master Carton Code, SCC, SCC-14, GTIN-14, ITF-14, or DUN-14. All these terms describe the same 14-digit barcode which is created in the Interleaved 2 of 5 (ITF) symbology.

What is a Master Carton Code Code (SCC-14 / GTIN-14)?

  A Master Carton Code, a 14-digit barcode placed on the outside of your shipping carton or pallet, allows your retailer to scan your shipment of multiple units of your product as it comes into their warehouse.

Used in most retail situations, a Master Carton Code may also be referred to as an SCC-14, GTIN-14, ITF-14, or Shipping Container Code. All these terms describe the same 14-digit barcode which is created in the Interleaved 2 of 5 (ITF) symbology.
 
 

How are Barcodes for Master Cartons different from Barcodes for Products?

  The SCC-14 / GTIN-14 barcode is used to CHECK IN your shipments of multiple units of your product at the retailer’s warehouse. The UPC barcode is a 12-digit unique code for your product that allows retailers to CHECK OUT your individual units of product at the register.
 
 
Let’s consider the Snickers® candy bar as an example:

Do I really need a Master Carton Code (SCC-14 / GTIN-14 code)?

  Yes, the common method by which your retailer scans your product shipments into inventory is the SCC-14 / GTIN-14 or Master Carton Code. Additionally, distributors use them to keep up with your goods.
 
 

What if I do not have a UPC number for my product?

  ATTENTION: You need to have product a UPC first and then order the corresponding SCC-14 / GTIN graphic. If you do not yet have UPC codes on your products, we can help:

How do Barcodes for Master Cartons (SCC-14) work?

  Master Carton Codes (also known as SCC-14 or GTIN-14) appear as lines (bars) of varying widths representing the series of numbers commonly shown below the bars.

Barcode scanners read the bars and convert them back to the 14-digit Master Carton Code or Pallet Code that they represent.

When you reach an agreement with a retailer to carry your product(s), they request the information required by their unique proprietary sales and inventory tracking systems.

Your 14-digit SCC-14 / GTIN-14 code, when scanned identifies the container of goods with your company; the cases or pallets of goods.
 
 

What if I have multiple items with different UPC codes within one box?

  Let’s assume that you pack 10 units of item A and 10 units of item B into a master carton. This is referred to as a Mixed Master Carton. Often this comes in the form of a mixed carton or mixed palette. Mixed Master Cartons are a special case. They require a specific starting digit (called a package level indicator) and require their own unique base UPC code. You MAY NOT use the UPC from an actual item inside of the box as the base for the master carton code for a mixed master carton. If you are unclear about this requirement, please call us at +1 404-869-0701 for further explanation.

  For your convenience, you choose your barcode graphic from different graphic formats so that your graphic artist, printing company, or manufacturing facility can work with your barcode graphic in their preferred software.
 
   
EPS Format - This layered, vector EPS file is the preferred format of most graphic designers due to its quality and versatility, particularly for resizing. EPS is an "exchange" format, not necessarily associated with one specific graphics program. An exchange format is one intended for multiple applications to be able to open.
PNG Format - This raster PNG file works well for graphic artists who need a transparent background. This format supports lossless data compression. However, this format is not suitable for significant resizing.
JPEG Format - This uncompressed, high-quality JPEG file is the most common file format. All computers can open a JPEG. However, it is not suitable for resizing.
Other Formats - We offer a variety of other formats. Just ask our friendly team.
