ITF-14 Carton Codes
ITF-14 Carton Codes (also known as GTIN-14 or TUN) are 14-digit barcodes that go on the delivery containers for your retail products. They are based on the product’s EAN-13 barcode number. Watch our short video to learn more about ITF-14 Carton Codes. We will email your carton code images in 3 formats (png, SVG and pdf). You can then choose the format you prefer and print your carton code onto the delivery box.
Note: ITF-14 Codes are only for the outer shipping containers/cartons containing the retail products. They are not for use on retail products themselves. Anything sold as one unit at a checkout requires an EAN-13 barcode. For example, a can of beer and a 6-pack of the same beer would each use an EAN-13 barcode. A carton code would only be for the wholesale carton of say 10x 6 pack of beer. Please place your order below if you need an ITF-14 Carton Code.

How do Carton Codes work?
Please watch our short video explainer which explains how carton codes link to the retail product number.
How to use an ITF-14 Carton Code:
Example Number One: If you want to deliver tins of tomatoes to supermarkets (and each tin is to be sold individually once in the supermarket), then you will need: 1) One EAN-13 barcode (e.g. ‘0123456789012’*) to go onto each of the tins; and 2) One ITF-14 Carton Code (based on your EAN barcode – i.e. ‘10123456789019’*) to be printed onto the delivery cartons. * FYI: to turn an EAN-13 number into an ITF-14 number, a digit (usually a “1”) is added to the start of the EAN-13 number, and then the checksum digit (the last digit) is re-calculated.
Example Number Two: If your tins of tomatoes were to be sold in the supermarkets both as a) individual tins and as b) 6-packs of tins, then you would need: 1) Two separate EAN-13 barcodes (one for the tins being sold individually, and the other for the 6-packs of tins); and 2) Two ITF-14 Carton Codes (one based on each of the EAN barcode numbers). One Carton Code would be printed onto the delivery box that contained the individual tins, and the other would be printed onto the delivery box that contained the 6-pack lots of tins.
