What it is

Code 128 is a compact, high-density barcode that can encode any ASCII text or numbers. It is the most widely used format for internal and logistics applications.

When to use it

Use Code 128 for inventory, asset tracking, event passes, internal shipping labels — anywhere you control both the code and the scanner. No GS1 number required.

How to create one

1. Open the generator and enter your value. 2. The code is validated and previewed instantly, with a scannability check where it applies. 3. Download a crisp SVG for print or a PNG for screens — or switch to bulk mode to make many at once from a list or spreadsheet. Everything happens on your device.

Good to know

Code 128 needs no registration. Encode whatever value you like; pair it with the label-sheet tool to print a full page of labels.
