6161| | identity | disputed | Net content: the UPC Database entry and the old Barcodepedia page (2009 capture) give 1 litre for this barcode, while the 2023 Spanish shelf tag printing the same barcode reads 900ml, with a per-litre price that matches 900 ml. The page follows the newer tag. The 900 ml Orange sold in Britain now carries 5054267013070 per Open Food Facts. | ^off13070 |
6262| off-shelf-2023 | ingredients | unknown | No ingredient list for this barcode: the only photograph is a front shelf shot, and the Open Food Facts record has no ingredients. Lists for the Suntory-era Orange bottles belong to other barcodes and to the 2017 and 2023 recipes, so none is copied here. | ^off |
6363| off-shelf-2023 | nutrition | unknown | The bottle fronts in the photograph carry a front-of-pack strip in which fat 0g, saturates 0g, sugars 11.2g (12%) and salt 0.14g (2%) can be read, but the energy figures and the serving basis are blurred, so no panel is transcribed. | ^off |
6464| | markets | unknown | Searched amazon.es on 2026-09-26 for "Lucozade Energy Orange 900ml", "lucozade" and 5000134045071 (no Lucozade result): no listing of this article; the only Lucozade Energy Orange listing is B07FNVWV3W, Lucozade Energy Orange 6 x 380ml, another size and a multipack. | |
6565| | relationships | unknown | No source names the licensee of GS1 prefix 5000134 or its length. The Open Food Facts block under 5000134 holds Lucozade, Ribena and Horlicks (GlaxoSmithKline brands of the period) alongside McIlhenny's Tabasco, so nothing is written to gs1_prefixes or gs1_prefixes_inferred. | |
6666| off-shelf-2023 | images | unknown | No back-label or close front photograph of this bottle; the only image is the shelf shot. | |

7272note: Built from the wanted queue (named by family/lucozade-energy). Identity rests on the UPC Database entry, the 2009 capture of the old Barcodepedia page and the 2023 Open Food Facts shelf photograph, whose shelf tag prints this barcode. The size conflict between the old catalogue entries (1 l) and the 2023 tag (900 ml) is recorded in pack history and research gaps.

9494## About <!--about-->
9595Lucozade Energy Orange is the orange-flavoured variety of Lucozade Energy, the sparkling glucose drink of the British Lucozade brand; Orange and Lemon joined the original flavour in 1986.[^wikipedia] This barcode is on a plastic bottle labelled "Lucozade Energy", "Orange" and "Contains glucose", photographed in June 2023 on a Spanish shop shelf whose price tag prints the same code, the name "Lucozade Energy Orange 900ml" and a price of 3,00 € (3,33 € per litre).[^off] The code dates from the GlaxoSmithKline era: the UPC Database names GlaxoSmithKline PLC for it, and both that entry and the 2006-2013 Barcodepedia site listed it as a one-litre bottle.[^upcdb][^oldsite] GlaxoSmithKline completed the sale of Lucozade to Suntory on 31 December 2013.[^gsk-complete]
9696 
9797Since the sale the brand has been held in Britain by Lucozade Ribena Suntory Limited.[^ch-lrs] Lucozade Energy was reformulated in 2017 to cut its sugar to 22.5 g per 500 ml ahead of the British sugar tax, adding sweeteners, and again in 2023.[^wikipedia] The 2023 change, the first major one since 2017, covered Original and Orange, the range's most popular variants, and gave both new sleeves.[^grocer2023] The 900 ml Orange bottle sold in Britain carries the Suntory-era barcode 5054267013070.[^off13070]

|                | identity      | disputed | Net content: the UPC Database entry and the old Barcodepedia page (2009 capture) give 1 litre for this barcode, while the 2023 Spanish shelf tag printing the same barcode reads 900ml, with a per-litre price that matches 900 ml. The page follows the newer tag. The 900 ml Orange sold in Britain now carries 5054267013070 per Open Food Facts. | ^off13070 |
| off-shelf-2023 | ingredients   | unknown  | No ingredient list for this barcode: the only photograph is a front shelf shot, and the Open Food Facts record has no ingredients. Lists for the Suntory-era Orange bottles belong to other barcodes and to the 2017 and 2023 recipes, so none is copied here.                                                                                       | ^off      |
| off-shelf-2023 | nutrition     | unknown  | The bottle fronts in the photograph carry a front-of-pack strip in which fat 0g, saturates 0g, sugars 11.2g (12%) and salt 0.14g (2%) can be read, but the energy figures and the serving basis are blurred, so no panel is transcribed.                                                                                                             | ^off      |
|                | markets       | unknown  | Searched amazon.es on 2026-09-26 for "Lucozade Energy Orange 900ml", "lucozade" and 5000134045071 (no Lucozade result): no listing of this article; the only Lucozade Energy Orange listing is B07FNVWV3W, Lucozade Energy Orange 6 x 380ml, another size and a multipack.                                                                           |           |
|                | relationships | unknown  | No source names the licensee of GS1 prefix 5000134 or its length. The Open Food Facts block under 5000134 holds Lucozade, Ribena and Horlicks (GlaxoSmithKline brands of the period) alongside McIlhenny's Tabasco, so nothing is written to gs1_prefixes or gs1_prefixes_inferred.                                                                  |           |
| off-shelf-2023 | images        | unknown  | No back-label or close front photograph of this bottle; the only image is the shelf shot.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |           |

note: Built from the wanted queue (named by family/lucozade-energy). Identity rests on the UPC Database entry, the 2009 capture of the old Barcodepedia page and the 2023 Open Food Facts shelf photograph, whose shelf tag prints this barcode. The size conflict between the old catalogue entries (1 l) and the 2023 tag (900 ml) is recorded in pack history and research gaps.

## About <!--about-->
Lucozade Energy Orange is the orange-flavoured variety of Lucozade Energy, the sparkling glucose drink of the British Lucozade brand; Orange and Lemon joined the original flavour in 1986.[^wikipedia] This barcode is on a plastic bottle labelled "Lucozade Energy", "Orange" and "Contains glucose", photographed in June 2023 on a Spanish shop shelf whose price tag prints the same code, the name "Lucozade Energy Orange 900ml" and a price of 3,00 € (3,33 € per litre).[^off] The code dates from the GlaxoSmithKline era: the UPC Database names GlaxoSmithKline PLC for it, and both that entry and the 2006-2013 Barcodepedia site listed it as a one-litre bottle.[^upcdb][^oldsite] GlaxoSmithKline completed the sale of Lucozade to Suntory on 31 December 2013.[^gsk-complete]

Since the sale the brand has been held in Britain by Lucozade Ribena Suntory Limited.[^ch-lrs] Lucozade Energy was reformulated in 2017 to cut its sugar to 22.5 g per 500 ml ahead of the British sugar tax, adding sweeteners, and again in 2023.[^wikipedia] The 2023 change, the first major one since 2017, covered Original and Orange, the range's most popular variants, and gave both new sleeves.[^grocer2023] The 900 ml Orange bottle sold in Britain carries the Suntory-era barcode 5054267013070.[^off13070]
