Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) bar codes adopted globally
19 Jun 2006: GS1 today announced a global sunrise date of Jan 1, 2010 for a new bar code called Reduced Space Symbology (RSS). This marks the first time since the EAN/UPC bar code was adopted that GS1 has endorsed a bar code for global, open (unrestricted) trade item identification. Today’s announcement follows a compelling business case review by a global task force comprising retailers, fast moving consumer goods manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, GS1 member organizations (MOs), and trade associations.
