CUSTOMER PROJECTS
Barcode-IT has helped some of the biggest companies in the UK to modernise their supply chain and logistics operations, taking advantage of the efficiencies and benefits that can be gained by using the latest in data capture and barcoding technologies.
Trade Chemicals Ltd.
Supply Chain Modernisation
Trade Chemicals were looking to fully utilise their Linnworks inventory management solution, to remove paper and reduce errors within their supply chain. Barcode-IT recommended Honeywell rugged mobile PDAs running Waizu's virtual cabinet software, to give Trade Chemicals peace of mind after rolling out their investment in devices. Since installation, Trade Chemicals have seen a 90% reduction in errors and are able to ship out up to 6 times more orders per day than before the scanners were introduced. Watch the video for the full case study.
When Kilo Limited moved to a purpose built warehouse to store batch controlled food ingredients, their Excel spreadsheet based inventory management solution became unworkable. Kilo Ltd. implemented a WMS running on Datalogic guns in 2016 to automate their warehouse and in 2022 upgraded to the new WMS software and Datalogic Android data capture guns. Since the seamless upgrade they have seen even more efficiencies and benefits to their warehouse operation. Watch the video below for more information.

Fontaine Fifth Wheel
RFID Track and Trace Solution
When Volvo and Daimler requested full traceability throughout the manufacturing process of their fifth wheels (the coupling between a lorry tractor and trailer), Fontaine Fifth Wheel contacted long standing partner Barcode-IT for advice. Barcode-IT recommended using RFID technology to trace products through the painting and drying process, as standard barcodes would be covered. Working with Zebra Technologies, Barcode-IT created an accurate and comprehensive RFID Track and Trace Solution that ensures Fontaine can provide their customers accurate and comprehensive data on all products leaving their manufacturing site. Watch the video below for full details.
R. Twinings & Company Ltd.
SAP Warehouse Modernisation
Following the modernisation of production equipment at Twining's Andover factory, it became obvious that the warehouse data capture hardware and software solution also required a refresh. Twining's contacted Barcode-IT to investigate the latest data capture hardware on the market and after trialling a selection of Zebra Technologies devices, selected a range of mobile computers best suited to their business needs. Watch Alan Talbot, Project Systems Manager at Twinings, explain the catalyst for the project and benefits they have seen since installation.
L'Oreal (UK)
Migration From Windows To Android
L'Oreal came to Barcode-IT for advice when looking to upgrade their data capture devices within their UK warehouses, as they were concerned about the compatibility of their existing SAP logistics solution with new Android operating systems. However, following expert advice from Barcode-IT, the migration was a smooth and seamless process that has been rolled out throughout their 3 UK facilities. Watch Dave Potts, Flows Manager at L'Oreal, explain how easy the migration process was and the benefits using the latest data capture technology have given them.
