The GS1 Composite 2D barcode belongs to the GS1 & GS1 Composite family. GS1 Composite 2D component. On this page you can generate GS1 Composite 2D barcodes directly in your browser: enter your data, watch the preview update in real time, then download the finished symbol as PNG or SVG. Rendering happens locally on your device — nothing you type is ever uploaded to a server.
GS1 barcodes combine application identifiers (AIs), written in parentheses, with the data itself, so a single symbol can carry a GTIN plus batch numbers, expiry dates, weights, and more. Composite variants add a 2D layer on top of the linear code to hold that extra data while staying compatible with existing retail scanners.
GS1 Composite 2D codes are used for shipping labels, logistics units, healthcare products, and any GS1-labelled trade item. Because the data is fixed inside the symbol at generation time, a printed GS1 Composite 2D barcode keeps working indefinitely — there is no service behind it, no expiry date, and no per-scan fee.
(10)BATCH123Yes. You can generate and download GS1 Composite 2D barcodes for free, with no sign-up and no watermark. Generation runs entirely in your browser — your data is never uploaded.
GS1 AI in parentheses. For example: (10)BATCH123. If your data does not match the expected format, the encoder will show an error instead of producing a symbol that cannot scan.
PNG for screens and documents, and SVG for unlimited-quality print and design work. Both formats are rendered locally in your browser.
No. The barcode is a fixed image of the data you entered — it keeps scanning for as long as the print or display lasts. If your data changes, simply generate a new barcode.
