A batch code is an identification code assigned to a batch of cosmetics. It may contain information such as manufacturers code, production date, etc.
A batch code is usually stamped or printed with a dot-matrix printer. You can be confused with the catalog number of the product (Ref.) and EAN / UPC number (barcode), which also appear on the packaging, but these numbers are printed in a standard way. Batch codes can be distinguished because they are applied later to already printed packaging.
Select a brand to see instructions on how to look like for batch codes of the brand. A batch code is printed or stamped on the bottom of a product packaging.
