New Bar Coded Glassware & Vials a Permanent Way to Protect and Identify Your Valuable Samples

01 Jan, 2000

You can now protect and immediately identify your precious samples more effectively within your compound management process. Anachem’s unique permanent custom bar coding service utilises vials each with their own individual bar code that guarantee the identity of their contents and position within a stored location.

Each bar code is made from a ceramic material that is permanently bonded to a glass vial or any glass laboratory product e.g. test tubes or bottle in either one dimensional (1D) or two dimensional (2D) forms. This completely eradicates the need for conventional sticky labels that can come off during storage or use, rendering the valuable contents unidentifiable. Vials that have a 2D bar code can be read from underneath using a flatbed scanner while the vial is positioned on an automated system. For immediate recognition, companies have the option to apply corporate logos or company names to the side of the vials giving a customized, professional appearance.
