Masakhane Barcoding and Labels

We are a label manufacturing business but also supply printed stationery like letterheads etc.

Masakhane Barcoding & Labels is a proudly South African, BEE status level 4, flexographic printing and manufacturing company specialising in the supply of Self Adhesive labels, barcode printers and general printing supplies. Our products are widely used in the mining, agricultural, transport, utilities and manufacturing sectors. The company was founded in September 1993 as "Janet Cziganek CC" a broker for continuous printing for the computer industry. As a result of the economic developments of the rainbow nation (Post 1994), the company experienced good growth in both customers and turnover. The investment in manufacturing machinery and staff prompted a name change from Janet Cziganek cc to Masakhane Businesses forms, a name chosen to represent the unified spirit of a young democracy. In 1997 capital expansion enabled the acquisition of a second printing machine resulting in a broader product offering and a final name change to Masakhane Barcoding & Labels cc. With over 25 years experience in the printing & label industry and a sound knowledge of associated fields, Masakhane Barcoding & Labels is able to deliver customised label solutions of exceptional quality and at competitive prices. We take pride in our dedicated customer focus and operational flexibility allowing for completion of emergency orders and specified customer needs.

Meet the employee who never takes a lunch break.

Doesn't ask for leave.
Doesn't complain about Mondays.
And can be found working in just about every industry.

We're talking about the humble barcode!

It might not look impressive, but when used with the right systems, barcodes help businesses:

✅ Identify products quickly
✅ Track stock and assets
✅ Reduce manual data-entry errors
✅ Improve inventory accuracy
✅ Speed up everyday processes

Of course, even the hardest-working employee needs to be properly equipped.

That's why barcode quality, correct sizing, contrast and print durability matter.

At Masakhane, we understand that a barcode isn't just something you print. It's something your business relies on.

Small code. Big responsibility.

Masakhane 101 - Why can a colour look different when it's printed?

Your screen and a printing press don't create colour in the same way.

RGB uses Red, Green and Blue light to create colours on digital screens.
CMYK uses Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black inks to reproduce colour in print.

Because RGB uses light, a screen can display some very bright, vibrant colours that CMYK inks can't reproduce in exactly the same way.

That's why artwork can look electric on your monitor but slightly different once it's printed.

The takeaway?

When you're designing something specifically for print, make sure the artwork is properly prepared for the intended printing process and don't rely solely on how a colour appears on your screen.

Good print starts before the printer starts running.

It looks like one label. But it could be doing five jobs at once. 🏷

A good label can help your product:
✓ Get noticed
✓ Communicate important information
✓ Carry barcodes or variable data
✓ Identify products or assets
✓ Stand up to the environment it was designed for

The right label isn't simply about what gets printed on it. Material, adhesive, application and finish all need to suit the job.

From product and retail labels to more specialised applications, Masakhane can help you create labels designed for where and how they'll actually be used.

Because the best label isn't just the one that looks good. It's the one that does its job.

From print to installation-ready.

Another piece of branding brought to life by the Masakhane team.

This Supa Quick signage is a great example of how large-format print turns practical information into something clear, visible and unmistakably on-brand.

Whether it’s promoting a service, directing customers or simply making sure your business gets noticed, good signage has a job to do long after the printer stops running.

Printed to be seen. Made to get to work.

Thermal labels in production!

They look the same. Look closer.

Same design.
Same colours.
Same branding.

But every label can carry something different.

A unique barcode. A sequential number. A QR code. Product information. Asset identification.

That's where variable data printing gets clever.

Instead of producing thousands of completely identical pieces, variable information can change from one printed item to the next, while the overall design stays consistent.

For businesses managing products, stock, assets or traceability, that little difference can do a lot of work.

Same design. Different data. Endless possibilities.

Talk to Masakhane about variable data and barcode printing.

May we continue to celebrate what makes each of us unique, while remembering everything that brings us together. 🇿🇦

It starts as a sheet. What happens next is where things get interesting.

With laser cutting, simple materials can become detailed signage, precision-cut components, stencils, packaging elements and creative branded pieces.

Clean lines. Intricate shapes. Repeatable accuracy.

It's a process that gives businesses plenty of room to think beyond the obvious.

At Masakhane, laser cutting is another way to turn an idea on screen into something you can actually hold.

So... what could we cut for you?

You might clock off at 5. Your brand doesn’t.

Every letter delivered.
Every business card handed over.

From business cards and letterheads to envelopes and notepads, Masakhane can help make sure your business looks the part, on paper too.

Because your brand is always on the job.
