It is an optical machine-readable representation of hidden data which is decoded through a barcode scanner. The barcode labels are represented by parallel lines which are placed at varying widths. Earlier these barcodes used to be 1D but nowadays even 2D and 3D are also available.

HOW TO APPLY:

Firstly, clean the label properly with isopropyl alcohol or any other industrial cleaning solution to remove the unwanted impurities and keep the labels from sticking properly.  Now once the surface is clean apply the label carefully.
