SKU & Product Label Generator

About this generator

Give every product variant a clear, consistent SKU and print labels for your shelves and parcels. Build SKUs from a prefix, a category code, colours, sizes and a running number, export the list as CSV, and print a label sheet as a PDF with the name, SKU, price and an optional Code 128 barcode.

How it works

• Every combination of the colours, sizes and options you list becomes one variant. Its SKU joins the parts you filled in with your separator, and the running number is padded with zeros, for example 001.
• Values can be shortened to their first letters and are turned into capitals without spaces or accents, so SKUs stay short and safe to type and scan. Duplicate SKUs are reported.
• Barcodes use Code 128 (character set B) with its check character, drawn as solid bars with a quiet zone on both sides. They are made in your browser, not by a service.
• The label sheet is laid out from the page size, label size in millimetres, number of columns and rows, margins and gaps you choose, and checked so that labels fit on the page.

Common questions

Are these barcodes the same as UPC or EAN product barcodes?

No. Code 128 is a general barcode for your own codes such as SKUs, and works with most scanners. Retail UPC or EAN numbers must be licensed from GS1 and are not made by this tool.

Which label sheets does it work with?

Any sheet with a regular grid. Choose a common A4 or Letter layout or enter the label size, columns, rows, margins and gaps printed on your label pack, then print a test page on plain paper first and hold it against a sheet.

Can I print names in other alphabets?

Not in the PDF yet. It uses a standard font that only prints Latin letters, and other characters become a question mark. You are warned when that happens. SKUs in barcodes can only use plain keyboard characters.
