Can I allocate GTINs to project-specific items, such as windows and doors?

A GTIN ensures that each product is distinct and can be easily incorporated across the open value chain. We advise using a GTIN, even for products that are specific to a project, such as pre-made windows, doors, concrete elements, and more. This way, you can link these items with relevant product information and data. This method makes your products unmistakable and compatible with the wider supply chain.

In conjunction with industry, GS1 is currently working on guidance for manufacturers of made-to-order and customisable construction products to ensure consistent processes across the sector.
