Gearbelt allows you to generate individual QR codes for your assets to easily access and update asset details. Scanning a QR code with a phone or tablet instantly pulls up the associated asset profile, including maintenance history, readings, and compliance documents.

This helps your team quickly log updates, track usage, and keep records accurate without having to manually search for asset-related data.

Here are our recommendations for the best results when printing your assets QR codes:

  • Use high-quality paper or labels – Durable, weatherproof labels work best for assets exposed to tough conditions. We recommend getting them professionally printed as waterproof stickers

  • Choose the right size – Ensure the QR code is large enough to scan easily but not so big that it takes up unnecessary space

  • Print in high resolution – A clear, sharp print prevents scanning issues. Avoid low-quality or faded prints

  • Laminate or protect when needed – For outdoor or high-wear environments, consider laminating or using protective covers to prevent damage

  • Test before applying – Scan the QR code after printing to confirm it works before attaching it to the asset
