Whether you’re labeling a new distribution center, expanding an existing warehouse, or replacing damaged labels, Par Code can help design a durable, easy-to-scan labeling system tailored to your operation. With over 40 years of experience and millions of labels produced, we help warehouses improve accuracy, efficiency, and long-term performance.

ParCode manufactures a wide variety of custom warehouse signs, including aisle markers, rack identification signs, dock door signs, overhead hanging signs, safety signage, directional signage, location markers, and barcode-integrated warehouse signs.

Yes. Many of our signs incorporate durable barcode labels, including retro-reflective barcode technology for long-range scanning applications. Signs can include text, barcodes, QR codes, or a combination of all three.

Our signs are typically manufactured from durable industrial-grade plastic substrates designed to withstand warehouse, distribution center, and manufacturing environments while remaining lightweight and highly visible.

Yes. Depending on the application, signs can be suspended from chains, mounted to conduit, attached to wire supports, fastened directly to racks, or installed using custom mounting hardware.

Proper facility identification reduces travel time, minimizes picking errors, improves employee navigation, increases scanning accuracy, and helps maintain organized inventory locations.

The angled design provides an optimal scanning surface for long-range barcode scanners, allowing operators to capture location information quickly and accurately without needing to reposition equipment.

Depending on the scanner and barcode size, retro-reflective barcode placards can often be scanned from distances in excess of 35 feet.

Yes. We can incorporate location numbers, aisle designations, warehouse zones, barcodes, QR codes, and custom graphics on the same placard.

Our team evaluates your warehouse management system, scanner capabilities, mounting requirements, scanning distances, and budget to recommend the most effective solution.

Our floor markers feature a premium 10-mil construction with an ultra-aggressive adhesive, high-quality print substrate, and a premium 3M slip-resistant overlaminate engineered specifically for warehouse environments.

Floor markers are commonly used for warehouse locations, staging areas, inventory zones, pallet positions, safety markings, workstations, and directional guidance.

Our standard floor marker size is 4″ x 6″, but custom sizes are available upon request.

Standard colors include White, Black, Red, Green, Orange, and Blue.

Yes. The pressure-sensitive adhesive backing allows for quick installation without special tools, reducing labor costs and minimizing operational disruption.

Absolutely. Floor markers can be printed with location identifiers, text, barcodes, QR codes, arrows, and other custom information.

Asset tags are durable labels used to identify, track, and manage physical assets such as computers, tools, equipment, furniture, vehicles, and machinery. Each tag typically includes a barcode, QR code, serial number, or other unique identifier that links the asset to a database or inventory management system.

Asset tags can be customized to include virtually any information your organization requires, including:

• Company name or logo
• Barcode or QR code
• Sequential asset number
• Serial number
• Department or location information
• Property identification text
• Contact information
• Equipment descriptions
• Security or warranty information

Par Code can customize the layout, colors, and data fields to match your tracking requirements.

Asset tags are available in a variety of materials to suit different environments and applications, including:

• Polyester labels
• Silver polyester labels
• Tamper-evident materials
• Destructible vinyl labels
• High-performance industrial materials
• Outdoor and UV-resistant materials
• Chemical and abrasion-resistant constructions

The best material depends on the asset, environment, and expected lifespan of the tag.

Yes. Some Tamper-evident asset tags are available for organizations that require additional security. These labels are designed to leave a visible pattern (Void),fragment into pieces, or otherwise show evidence of tampering if someone attempts to remove or transfer them.

Absolutely. Asset tags can be produced with QR Codes, Data Matrix Codes, traditional linear barcodes, or multiple barcode formats on the same label. QR codes are especially useful when additional information, maintenance records, or online resources need to be accessed using a smartphone or scanning device.

Asset tags are used across nearly every industry, including:

• Education and School Districts
• Healthcare and Medical Facilities
• Manufacturing
• Government Agencies
• Municipalities
• Warehousing and Distribution
• Information Technology Departments
• Utilities and Telecommunications
• Construction and Field Services
• Corporate Offices and Businesses

Any organization that needs to track valuable equipment can benefit from a well-designed asset tagging system.

The lifespan of an asset tag depends on the material and environment. Standard indoor asset tags often last for many years, while premium industrial constructions can withstand harsh conditions including abrasion, chemicals, UV exposure, moisture, and extreme temperatures.

Par Code offers asset tag materials designed for both short-term applications and long-term asset identification programs that can remain legible and scannable for the life of the asset.

Whether you need simple property labels, tamper-evident security tags, serialized barcode labels, or durable metal asset tags, Par Code can help you select the right material and design for your application. Contact us to discuss your tracking requirements and receive a customized recommendation.
