Barcode signs enable fast and secure capture of product and process data – manually or automatically. In manufacturing and logistics, consistently good readability is crucial to ensure identification and traceability throughout the entire lifecycle.
Becher Industrieschilder manufactures barcode signs and DataMatrix labels tailored to the material, application environment, and scanning technology. Depending on the requirements, we implement marking, for example, using subsurface anodized printing on aluminum or through laser marking/etching techniques on metal – including serial numbers, variants, and customer-specific data sets.![]()

The durability and scannability of a code largely depend on the material, surface structure, contrast, and the code geometry (e.g. module size/X-dimension, quiet zone). Equally important are the mounting location, abrasion, cleaning cycles, chemical exposure, and temperature. We design the execution and code parameters to ensure reliable performance within your process.

Almost any shape possible, in-house toolmaking, extensive tool inventory available | Drilled holes, self-adhesive (wide range of adhesives for various applications) | Sequential numbering, consecutive barcodes, and variable markings through embossing, engraving, laser marking, or digital printing | Individually supplied, optionally with clear coating, surface protection film, or paint protection film |
We tailor code size, contrast, and placement to your scanning technology and installation situation – ensuring stable readability within your process.
We select materials and marking methods based on abrasion, cleaning agents, UV exposure, temperature, and chemical stress (depending on the application).
We integrate sequential numbers, DataMatrix/QR codes, plain text, and project-specific content in a reliable process – from samples to series production.
Documented specifications and defined process parameters ensure consistent results across batches and repeat orders.
Upon request, we support you with data formats, layout specifications, and coordination with labeling systems, assembly, and scanning processes.
Our sales team will advise you on material selection, manufacturing processes, design, and mounting solutions.
From a single sign to large-scale production – we have the right solution.
A specialized manufacturer takes into account not only the right material but above all code geometry, contrast and mounting/operating conditions. It is crucial that barcodes and 2D codes remain reliably scannable even under abrasion, cleaning cycles, UV exposure and temperature fluctuations – both manually and in automated processes.
We manufacture both 1D barcodes (e.g. Code 128) and 2D codes (e.g. DataMatrix or QR code) – including human-readable text, serial numbers and project-specific content. The selection depends on data volume, scanner technology, available space and process requirements.
Yes, depending on the design. For outdoor applications, aluminum with subsurface anodized printing or stainless steel with laser marking or chemical etching is commonly used. The suitable solution depends, among other factors, on UV exposure, weather conditions, mounting location and mechanical stress.
This is ensured through the coordinated design of code size (module size/X-dimension), quiet zone and contrast, as well as the appropriate material and marking process. We also take into account the installation situation, scanning distance and typical contamination/stress to ensure that the code can be reliably read in real-world operation.
Yes. We implement consecutive serial numbers, variable data sets as well as 1D/2D codes in a process-reliable manner – from the sample phase to series production. If required, we can import data, for example from Excel/CSV, and align format and structure with your workflow.
Helpful information includes the code type (1D/2D), approximate data density, dimensions/available space, preferred material, operating environment (abrasion/UV/chemicals/temperature), mounting method, as well as quantity and whether consecutive numbering is required.
