Barcode Hanging Signs
Long-range, cost effective, and high performance.
Overhead location identification signs for industrial floor storage areas.
Scannable from Long Distance, a Fix-and-Forget Solution for Busy Warehouses
At Fortetga, we design and manufacture high-quality barcode hanging signs that play a critical role in location identification.

What Barcode Signs Do.
Overhead Warehouse Identification
Barcode hanging signs are used to identify floor locations where racks and shelves are not available to apply location identification to. Barcode signs are typically hung from structures or the ceiling, usually directly above the storage position.
Extending Technical Performance
Fortegaโs barcode signs are either printed direct to board or created with a combination of directly print and retro-reflective material. These make it possible for barcodes to be scanned at great distances where scanning hardware allows.
Over ten-meter scan ranges are a base line for this product, making it a versatile solution.
We Make Barcode Enabled Signs for Warehouses.
Our barcode sign products are made from high density plastic, often as angled formations, but can also be flat panels.
Installing them over bulk storage lanes means a single-sided option, or two sided may be required, and based on the angle of visibility, we can produce the signs in such a way that makes it easier to read and scan. The first interaction with these is the worker who needs to clearly read them.

Materials We Use To Produce Barcode Signs.
At Fortega, our barcode sign products are generally made from high density plastic and formed so the face angles toward the person reading the sign and scanning the barcode.
We use:
Expanded PVC โ This is a mid-density plastic, and the most common substrate used for internal signs. Adhesive and print can be applied directly. It can be formed so the surface presents in the direction needed and can be easily installed in most situations.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Questions about Fortega’s barcode hanging signs and our installation services.
How Far Away Can I Scan These?
In an open warehouse with normal lighting, these hanging signs can be scanned at 20m with ease. Generally speaking, the wider the barcode, the greater the distance, but light also plays a factor, particularly with imaging scanners.
Can You Build a Bin Location File of Barcode Signs?
In short yes. We will need information from you, so would need some of your time, but this is something we do frequently and are quick at completing. Most WMS systems can generate data, so we can also talk to your IT guys if it helps.
Do You Install These Or Sell the Parts I Need to Do It?
Fortega is a solutions and services-based company, so we can produce and install them wherever you need them. Throughout the UK and most of the globe if needed. We can also sell the product and parts if you have an able and willing maintenance team.
We Use Logos On Our Signs, Can You Do That Too?
Fortega print signs, so if you need branding, additional messaging or colour coding, we can incorporate all those elements into the design. This would be designed by us, approved by you and in your facility in a timely manner.
