Bar Code Graphics, Inc. has been designated by The Home Depot as the certification resource for their vendors’ GTIN and logistic barcode compliance. Due to the substantial investment in their automated scanning infrastructure and the benefits for both parties achieved from automation, The Home Depot is expecting 100% barcode compliance from their vendors.
Based on packaging requirements, GTIN barcodes for The Home Depot can either be directly printed on corrugate boxes or printed on labels. Vendors are required to provide actual samples for every size carton and/or label used for shipments via The Home Depot RDC supply chain. Home Depot also requires GS1-128 logistic label certification. Since many vendors ship from multiple locations, logistic barcode certification is necessary for every vendor "ship point".
Registration and submission steps depend on where you ship from. Choose your vendor type to register, sign in and see the instructions.
