The European Article Number (EAN) symbol has served the packaging industry well since 1977 when it was first used commercially. But times have changed, and packaging must change with it. Because packaging has a finite amount of physical space to communicate, it’s become challenging for manufacturers to comply with increasing regulation that cuts into the limited “canvas” for the design of packaging. It also slows the checkout process for retailers when either a cashier or consumer has to repeatedly scan the EAN symbol on the package to get it to work. It frustrates consumers and blunts retailers’ profits.
