BarTender is software for label design and label printing. Layouts are created once and then filled with data from databases or ERP systems, printed and logged. The software is widespread in regulated industries because approvals and changes can be controlled traceably. OPAL uses BarTender to automate labelling directly from the leading system.

What is BarTender?
SHARED TOPICS
Which problems do we solve with BarTender?
Label printing rarely becomes a topic because of looks, but because of these points.
Layouts are scattered everywhere
Templates on local machines mean every department prints its own version.
Data is typed in by hand
Entering label data manually creates errors that only surface at the customer.
Changes without evidence
In regulated industries it must be provable who changed and approved a layout, and when.
Printing is not automated
A label should be created when the process step demands it, not when somebody remembers.
HOW WE WORK
How do we solve this in practice?
We bring layout, data and printer together.
Creating layouts
We build your label templates, including barcodes, logos and mandatory information.
Connecting data
Layouts draw their content directly from a database, ERP or SAP®, with no retyping.
Automating printing
Printing is triggered by the process and routed to the correct printer.
