Benteler Automotive Container Label Barcode Specifications

1. Suppliers must insure that all materials shipped to Benteler Automotive Plants are correctly labeled and

that the labels are properly attached or inserted into the holders on the racks or containers. 2. The Benteler Automotive guideline documents the requirements for the format of bar code labels on

unit loads and transport packages for conveying data between trading partners in accordance with the AIAG guidelines. The general term label will be used interchangeably for both the label and the tag. This document outlines the requirements for print labels for unit loads to ensure scan ability of bar code symbols and provide consistency of label formats. Strict adherence to these specifications for the Trading Partner Label will reduce costs and increase benefits throughout the entire supply chain.

3. The purpose of the bar code label is to facilitate the movement of goods and accurate exchange of data

among all members within a channel of distribution (suppliers, carriers, customers, and others).

4. The Benteler Automotive Bar Code Guidelines have been developed based upon the following AIAG publications:

AIAG B-1 Bar Code Symbology

AIAG B-10 Trading Partner Label

AIAG B-5 Primary Metals Tag Application Standard

5. In this document, the word "shall" indicates a requirement and the word "should" indicates a recommendation.

6. Bar codes shall be the 3-of-9 (Code 39) type and shall conform to the "Bar Code Symbology" published

by the Automotive Industry Action Group AIAG B1.

7. It is the responsibility of the supplier to provide bar coded labels that meet these specifications. Equipment is available to verify that bar code symbols meet these requirements. Use of statistical process control techniques to minimize printing variability is recommended.

8. All new suppliers are required to attain label approval prior to initial shipment through the Benteler

Automotive, NAO Regional Logistics Director's office. Project specific requirements may apply.

9. Label paper shall be white in color with bold, black printing. Exceptions to this will be allowed with documented approval by the Plant Logistics Manager or the NAO Regional Logistics Director.

10. The standard Benteler Automotive Container and Master labels shall be 4.0 inches (102mm) high by

6.0 inches (152mm) wide. The standard Primary Metals Tag shall be 7.33 inches (186 mm) high by 5.5 inches (140 mm) wide.

11. Adhesive types can be pressure sensitive or dry gummed as long as adherence to the package

substrate is assured and application is wrinkle-free. In addition, label must be able to be removed from returnable packaging without the need for special adhesive removers.

Position Requirements

26. Label Location 1. Illustrations of the most common shipping packs and recommended label locations are listed in

the AIAG B10 guidelines. 2. In most cases two labels are specified. In most cases of returnable packaging, there are specific

designated areas for the placement of bar code labels. 3. When there is not a specific, designated area; the bottom edge of the label should be parallel to

the base of the package/container. 4. To facilitate reading of bar code symbols, the top edge of the label, where possible, should be a

minimum of 20 inches from the bottom of the container. Wraparound labels are acceptable as long as quiet zones are within specifications.

5. All labels on containers must be identical with the exception of added Master Label or Mixed Load Label.

27. Label Protection

1. Label protection against moisture, weathering, abrasion, etc., may be required in harsh environments and is encouraged wherever practical.

2. Laminates, sprays, window envelopes, and clear plastic pouches are examples of possible protection methods. In choosing any protection method, care must be taken to assure that

NAO_LO-022 Page November 01, 2013 Barcode Label Specifications Version 3.7

8

labels meet the reflectivity and contrast requirements and can be scanned with contrast and non-contrast devices.

3. The removal of old labels prior to shipping has been completed remains the responsibility of the supplier.

28. Suppliers will be informed about which labels are required by Benteler Automotive Purchasing.

The supplier will be notified of a ‘no-label’ situation or a ‘mislabel’ situation via the standardized Benteler Receiving Discrepancy Report (RDR) or Material Complaint Notice (MCN) system; which may also include request for 8D reports as well as a documented means to recover costs in the situation of incorrectly labeled product. Labels that have been damaged in transit will be keyed in manually at our facility. However if this persists, a root cause investigation will be conducted by the plant logistics department. While these specifications will cover most situations, there will be circumstance where requirements will dictate special arrangements between Benteler Automotive and the supplier. Every effort to minimize these situations should be a goal of all so that complexities and costs are not added. Three situations where special labels may be required for better handling and efficient transfer of data are the Master Unit Load Label, Mixed Load Label and the Primary Metals Identification Tag.

inches (25.4mm) letters. 3. The data identifier for the serial number shall be (M) instead of (S). The serial number, preceded by the

"M", shall be a unique number, not to be repeated over the course of one year. Suppliers shall avoid repeating serial numbers within any calendar year. Suppliers shall be able to provide linked traceability information of the totes/boxes to the Master bar code serial number, upon demand.

4. The quantity on the master label shall be the total number of pieces of the part number. 5. The balance of the label format should conform to the specifications from the AIAG Shipping/Parts
