What are smart labels?
Smart labels are digital labels with E-Ink display technology that replace conventional paper labels in warehouses and logistics. These intelligent displays are automatically updated via radio frequency and offer interactive functions for optimised work processes.
Retrofitting smart labels and digital upgrading of existing containers
Smart labels are very easy to retrofit. This means that existing container stocks can be digitised without the need for any changes to your warehouse.
Universal mounts for various label sizes enable fitting to U-Turn containers, large volume containers SL68, SK bins and XL containersas well as MB containers.
The sustainable alternative to paper labels offers
- Permanent display with virtually no energy consumption thanks to E-Ink technology
- Remote updates of all information in real time
- Integrated LEDs for pick-by-light solutions
- Buttons for direct interaction and process confirmation
Product features and benefits in brief
Smart labels combine sustainability, cost efficiency and process optimisation

Complete elimination of paper labels and printer accessories. All information is displayed digitally and updated automatically.
Easy retrofitting
Smart labels can be easily retrofitted to BITO bins containers to enable digital container management.
70% saving on costs
Significant reduction in running costs for labels, printers and maintenance. No more expenditure on toner, paper or printer servicing.
50% fewer errors
Significant reduction in errors thanks to dynamic displays and LED guidance. Mix-ups and incorrect withdrawals are minimised.
25% faster processes
Accelerated workflows by eliminating printing and by enabling instant updates. Modifications can be visualised immediately in all locations.
5-year battery life
Long-lasting power supply without cabling or frequent battery changes. Minimal maintenance required throughout the entire service life.
ROI in 6 to 9 months
Fast return on investment thanks to savings in material costs and efficiency gains. The investment pays for itself in the first year.
How do BITO smart labels work?
Smart labels use energy-saving e-paper display technology to permanently display information without a continuous power supply. Communication is ensured via radio encrypted message exchange with the central control software, allowing information to be updated in real time.
Each smart label has a high-resolution display for showing text, numbers and barcodes, as well as multi-coloured LEDs for visual signals. Integrated buttons enable direct interaction, f.ex. for confirming quantities or placing repeat orders.
E-Paper smart labels are energy efficient, secure and interactive. Benefit from
- E-Ink screen with permanent image display and zero power consumption when idle
- Radio-based communication via secure connections
- Multicoloured LEDs for pick-by-light and put-to-light applications
- Programmable buttons for user interaction and process control
- Optional integrated sensors for automated inventory recording
Where are smart labels used?
Broad range of applications in all intralogistics fields
Order picking from shelving and racking
Digital labelling of storage positions with real-time inventory information. Clear product and position details guaranteed, even in warehouse systems with random storage.
Container management and transport
Flexible labelling of bins and containers without relabelling when contents change. Smart labels remain permanently on the container and display up-to-date information.
Production and assembly
Display of work instructions and parts lists directly at the assembly station. Status messages and priorities are updated dynamically.
Wholesale and retail logistics
Digital price tags and product information in sales areas. Centrally updated prices are automatically synced across all branches.
Your added value
The use of smart labels fundamentally transforms your labelling processes and creates the basis for paperless, sustainable logistics. Not only do they significantly reduce your recurring costs for consumables, they also increase the flexibility and responsiveness of your processes. Employees benefit from clear, up-to-date information and intuitive guidance via LED signals. The digital solution grows flexibly with your requirements and can be seamlessly integrated into existing systems and retrofitted.
- Sustainable corporate management by eliminating paper and plastic labels
- Flexibility in the case of short-term modifications without relabelling
- VImproved data quality through automatic synchronisation
- Reduced carbon footprint by eliminating printing processes
- Easy and quick to retrofit on almost all BITO bins and containers
