QR Code Factory & GS1 Digital Links
To make digital product passports accessible, garments must carry a physical link (QR code or NFC tag) that consumers can scan. Passr implements the international GS1 Digital Link standard to link physical barcodes to web pages.1. Understanding GS1 Digital Links
Traditional barcodes (UPC/EAN) are separate from website URLs. GS1 Digital Link combines both into a single QR code:- The URL Format:
verify.passr.eu/01/{GTIN} - How it Works: A consumer’s smartphone scans the QR code and opens the public passport web page. If scanned by a retailer’s point-of-sale scanner, the same QR code reads the GTIN barcode directly, making packaging cleaner by removing the need for double barcodes.
2. Exporting Print Assets
Navigate to the QR Generator dashboard page to export vector or raster assets for printing:Recommended Export Formats
- SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics): Highly Recommended for print. Can be scaled infinitely without pixelation. Ideal for textile printing, cardboard hangtags, and screen printing.
- PNG: High-resolution raster images, best for web embeds or low-resolution label printing.
Standard Tag Sizes
Passr offers presets optimized for garment manufacturing:- Hangtag (25mm x 25mm): Compact QR code suitable for paper swing tags.
- Care Label (40mm x 40mm): Standard size for polyester/satin care instruction labels sewn into seams.
- Box Packaging (60mm x 60mm): Large format for carton boxes or polybags.
