Barcode labels can allow for the organization of large amounts of data. They are widely used in the healthcare and hospital settings, ranging from patient identification (to access patient data, including medical history, drug allergies, etc.) to creating SOAP Notes[13] with barcodes to medication management. They are also used to facilitate the separation and indexing of documents that have been imaged in batch scanning applications, track the organization of species in biology,and integrate with in-motion checkweighers to identify the item being weighed in a conveyor line for data collection.

And barcode labels also be used to keep track of objects and people; they are used to keep track of rental cars, airline luggage, nuclear waste, registered mail, express mail and parcels. Barcoded tickets allow the holder to enter sports arenas, cinemas, theatres, fairgrounds, and transportation, and are used to record the arrival and departure of vehicles from rental facilities etc.   That is why you can see barcode labels be sticked on every where.

As many combinations of adhesive materials are available. Some applications require permanent labels that resist exposure to temperature extremes, high humidity, chemicals or outdoor use. Other labels must be easily removed without tearing, damaging the item or leaving a residue. Labels may also need to removed and then reapplied or to be tamper-resistant or tamper-evident. Many surfaces are difficult to label and require specific adhesive formulations. There are two common types of adhesive materials used today that are:

Rubber based Adhesives 
These adhesives are useful for quick sticking applications but may weaken when exposed to cleaning solvents, chemicals or ultraviolet light.
Acrylic based Adhesives

These adhesives come in a wide range of properties. Some allow clean, easy removal without leaving residues. Others may require some time period in which to set completely but hold permanently in a wide variety of conditions. Some can be used in label applications where the labels will not come off in one piece.
