Smaller bar code under development

The Uniform Code Council is developing a 14-digit reduced space symbology (RSS) bar code designed for case-ready packages of meat and poultry, according to an announcement made at a UCC conference in Orlando in late May.

Jul 31, 2003

The UCC is working with retailers and meat and poultry processors in developing the bar code with the goal of conducting a test of the new RSS bar codes in the first quarter of 2004. UCC is also testing RSS codes on produce at one store in Canada. A deli/baker users group is working on standard product IDs for point of sale, according to UCC.
