What are Barcode Scanners? Why are they important?

Barcode scanners are devices designed to read and capture data from 1D and 2D barcodes, QR codes, or RFID-enabled labels, helping businesses improve efficiency, accuracy, and traceability.

Each barcode scanning solution typically includes:

Handheld, wearable, or fixed scanners – reliable devices for reading codes in retail, warehouse, manufacturing, or healthcare environments.
Scanning modules and accessories – tools for optimising speed, accuracy, and device integration.
Software and data systems – applications that store, analyse, and visualise scanned data, integrating seamlessly with ERP and WMS workflows.

Barcode scanners enable fast, accurate, and real-time data capture wherever your team operates, improving efficiency, reducing errors, and supporting traceability in logistics, retail, manufacturing, healthcare, and other high-volume environments.
