I. Challenges Addressed

Traditional material labeling methods face these issues:

  • Limited Information Capacity: Restricted label space allows only basic text/graphics, lacking detailed or dynamic content.
  • High Update Costs: Physical labels require reprinting for information changes, increasing time and costs.
  • Poor Interactivity: Static labels offer no user interaction or feedback mechanisms.
  • Vulnerability: Physical labels degrade due to weather or damage, causing readability issues.

QR Code Solutions:

  • Rich Content: Support text, images, URLs, videos, audio, and dynamic updates.
  • Low-Cost Updates: Modify information via CaoLiao QR Code platform without reprinting labels.
  • Enhanced Interaction: Enable user feedback through scans.
  • Durability: Digital QR codes remain functional even if partially damaged.
  • Data Tracking: Collect and analyze user feedback data in your account.

This template supports bulk QR codes generation for material identification. Use bulk templates to create unique codes for each material.
