Digitize Your Supermarket

Electronic shelf label (ESL) is a digital price tag that uses e-ink (electronic ink) technology. Price, product information and promotion updates can be made instantly from a central system via wireless connection. Unlike paper labels, prices of thousands of products can be changed automatically in seconds. Thanks to e-ink technology, it provides perfect readability even in sunlight and battery life is typically 3–7 years depending on usage.

Electronic shelf label prices vary depending on screen size, color features and order quantity. Small labels (1.54"-2.9") offer more economical options, while large screens (10"+) have higher prices. At ESLink we share clear, project-based pricing. Package options can include installation, software and technical support. Contact us for a detailed quote.

Discovery, installation and local technical support in Turkey and Northern Cyprus run through ESLink Technologies. We offer a free survey meeting and demo. Hardware and software scope is listed line by line in the project quote. Use the contact form or email.

ESLink electronic shelf label installation is very easy. With magnetic, adhesive or rail mounting options, it adapts to every shelf type. Installation for an average supermarket is completed within 1-3 days. Our expert team does on-site installation and trains your staff. Integration with your existing POS and ERP system is also included in the installation process.

Battery life typically ranges from 3–7 years depending on usage intensity (daily update frequency, temperature, connectivity). Exact duration varies by field conditions.

Electronic shelf labels are used in supermarkets and hypermarkets, pharmacies (with insurance price integration), electronics stores, hardware stores, warehouse and logistics centers, industrial facilities, libraries and many more sectors. We offer customized solutions for each industry.

Integration with your existing POS or inventory software is assessed during project discovery. Our technical team plans the suitable method with you.

Digital price labels, automatic price updates and shelf management for pharmacies.

Electronic shelf label investment pays for itself in an average of 12-24 months. Savings sources: 90% savings from manual labeling labor, prevention of losses from price errors, time savings in promotion transitions, elimination of paper and printing costs. A medium-sized supermarket can save over $5,000 annually.

E-ink is a special display technology that provides a paper-like appearance. It uses real ink particles, providing perfect readability from any angle and in sunlight. Unlike LCD/LED displays, it only consumes energy when the image changes. This allows battery life to typically last 3–7 years depending on usage. It doesn't strain the eyes and doesn't glare. It's the most commonly used technology in electronic shelf labels.

ESLink electronic shelf labels offer a wide range from 1.54 inches to 13+ inches. Small sizes (1.54"-2.9") are ideal for shelf-edge price tags. Medium sizes (4.2"-7.5") are suitable for products requiring detailed information. Large screens (10"+) are preferred for end caps, promotional areas, and warehouse use. Each size comes in black-white, black-white-red, or black-white-yellow color options.

A single label update takes seconds. Bulk time depends on label count, gateway count and store conditions. 10,000 labels in 15 minutes is an ideal-condition example, confirmed after the survey. Gateway range can reach about 25 m in open space; metal shelves and partitions shorten it. Large stores use multiple gateways.

ESLink electronic shelf labels have protection ratings from IP54 to IP67. IP54 models are resistant to dust and splashing water, suitable for supermarkets and stores. IP67 models are completely dustproof and water-resistant up to 1 meter depth, ideal for cold storage, fish counters, and outdoor use. Industrial models operate between -20°C and +50°C.

Switching to electronic shelf labels helps reduce paper, printing and manual labeling labor. It also helps prevent losses from price errors. Actual savings depend on store size, product count and update frequency, and are clarified after a project assessment.

Supermarket electronic label installation is completed in 4 stages: 1) Survey: Store analysis is performed, product count and shelf layout are determined. 2) Planning: Gateway locations, label sizes, and integration plan are prepared. 3) Installation: Labels are mounted on shelves, gateways are placed, software integration is done. 4) Training and Go-Live: Staff training is given, system goes live. Average time is 1-5 days.

Devices come with a 2-year warranty. The battery is a consumable and is not covered by the device warranty. Details are stated in the project quote.

Using digital price tags in supermarkets provides numerous advantages: Instant price updates eliminate checkout-shelf price mismatches. Promotions start and end automatically. Dynamic pricing is possible (evening discounts, etc.). Stock information can be shown on the label. QR code provides access to product details. Staff efficiency increases by 80%.

The gateway provides wireless communication between labels and the central system. Typical planning figures are 500–1,000 labels per gateway and about 25 m in open space — a survey estimate, not a lab guarantee. Metal shelves and concrete partitions shorten range. It runs on 2.4GHz or Sub-GHz and connects via Ethernet or Wi-Fi. Large stores use multiple gateways.

ESLink offers both black-and-white and color electronic shelf labels. Black-and-white models are the most economical and ideal for basic price display. Three-color models (black-white-red or black-white-yellow) are used to highlight campaigns and discounts. Full-color e-paper models are also available but cost more and consume more energy.

Yes, a scaled start can be planned for smaller stores. A 100–500 label scope is quoted per project. The system can later grow on the same infrastructure. Management is via web or mobile.

NFC-enabled electronic shelf labels enhance customer interaction. Customers can tap their smartphones on the label to: Access detailed product information, view nutritional values, check allergen information, read customer reviews, add products to online cart. Store staff can also do quick inventory checks via NFC.

Electronic shelf label systems require minimal maintenance. Typical battery life is 3–7 years depending on usage. Gateways need a power connection. Software updates are applied remotely. An annual health check is recommended. When batteries are depleted, the label or the battery is replaced.

Yes, electronic shelf labels enable dynamic pricing. Time-based pricing: Discounts on fresh products in evening hours. Demand-based pricing: Price adjustment during peak hours. Automatic updates based on competitor prices. Pricing based on stock levels. All these rules are defined in software and applied automatically.
