Food Labeling using PTI Labels
Who needs verified labels?
The Product Traceability Initiative Label, also known as the PTI Label, is an industry-wide effort to label and track produce from the field to the grocery store.
This traceability process allows produce to be quickly and efficiently tracked by scanning a barcode label, adhered to produce cases from the grower’s field, all the way to the grocery store.
Barcode Factory offers everything you need to create, design, and print PTI labels that meet GS1 standards and make it from the "field to the fork".

The balance of the label text is called the Human Readable and MUST be in ALL CAPS if possible. If product name is too long for all CAPS, Upper and Lower Case is acceptable.
The Pack Style is directly under the produce name and describes the Pack quantity and Weight.
Pack Date must include 3-digit Month and Date inside a boxed area.

Packer or Shipper name, City, State and other information. May include a company logo.
PTI Voice Pick Code- The Voice Pick Code is printed on the PTI label, and designed to integrate with the voice picking systems popular in large warehouse management systems (WMS). The Voice Pick Code itself is a CRC16 Number that is created by combining the GTIN, Lot Number and Pack Date calculated into a 16-digit number. The Voice Pick Code represents the last 4 digits of that code.
