Pallets are constantly on the move and subject to a lot of strain and abuse as they make their way through the logistical cycle. If your pallet identification labels aren’t up to spec, you’ll experience peeling, fading, and difficulty scanning inventory as it moves through the supply chain. All these issues contribute to wasted time, stock confusion and delivery disputes that you simply shouldn’t have to deal with.
With over 25 years of label manufacturing experience, BEE 4 knows exactly what it takes to create durable pallet labels well-suited to any environment. We are specialists in creating completely bespoke labels with strong adhesive options, crisp print for scanners, and finishes that withstand real-world wear and tear.
Whether you require labels with hi-tack adhesive, sequentially numbered labels, or GS1-standard pallet labels for shipping and compliance, we can be relied upon to design and manufacture labels tailored to your specific use case and application.
Interested in partnering with our expert services on this? Use the on-screen enquiry form and provide us with details on:
label size + quantity
barcode type (or your requirement)
sequential range or an Excel/CSV file (if variable data)
What kind of conditions the pallets will be exposed to (dry, damp, oily, chilled)
We’ll come back with a clear recommendation and provide a free pre-production sample to give you maximum assurance before placing your full order!
When it comes to labelling, wood is one of the most difficult surfaces to work with. It’s fibrous, uneven, dusty, and often damp. When you add factors like stretch wrap, forklift contact, temperature swings, and tough working conditions to the mix, it’s often very hard to find the right solution unless you’re an expert in label manufacturing.
This is where BEE 4 comes into play. Leveraging our extensive industry experience, we have the knowledge, expertise and in-house capabilities to overcome all these hurdles. Our approach to pallet label printing starts with the reality of timber pallets and how they’re handled:
For Pallet ID Labels to bond securely to pallets and remain secure throughout the logistical cycle, a special adhesive is required that bites into the wooden surface and creates an aggressive bond that external forces cannot sever. We use a custom made adhesive solution that guarantees long-term bonding, allowing the label to withstand whatever is thrown its way.
No matter how good the quality of the label materials are, it means nothing if the label can’t scan properly. We print pallet barcode labels with strong contrast and clean edges so handheld scanners and warehouse systems pick them up quickly. If you require variable data such as sequential numbering, we format all your labels in a way that guarantees long-term scanability and legibility.
Throughout the logistics cycle, your labels will likely come into contact with dust, moisture, oil, and chemicals. To mitigate these external influences, we offer a broad range of laminated finishing options that keep your label protected and preserve its legibility.
We can print a variety of different barcode type options, including:
Code 39 (popular for internal IDs)
EAN-13 / UPC (product-level or trade uses)
QR Codes (when you need more data or smartphone scanning)
GS1-128 / EAN-128 (often required for logistics labels and SSCC)
If you’re not sure what type of barcode is required, we offer qa free consultation where we can leverage our expertise to advise on the most appropriate type for your specific use case.
If you’re shipping into certain supply chains, you may be asked for GS1-standard pallet labels, typically built around an SSCC and encoded in a GS1-128 barcode.
If you’ve been provided with a template or a partner specification, share it with us, and we will ensure your pallet tag is completely aligned with expectations.
Given the highly technical nature and strict performance criteria of pallet labels, many of our clients want pre-production samples before placing a full order. This is why we offer:
Pre-production sampling available so you can test adhesion and scan performance on your actual pallets
Proofing support for barcode pallet labels and variable data layouts
Consistency for repeat orders, so your pallet identifier format stays the same month after month
If you’ve had problems working with previous suppliers, let us know exactly what the issue was, and we can resolve it. Whether it’s peeling edges, smudging, fading print quality or proo scan rates, we’ve seen it all and have a solution.
