The Role of Labels in Industry and Manufacturing
Industrial labels or labels used within the manufacturing sector are vital in product identification, safety, and compliance:
Identification
Labels are used to identify different machinery components and provide essential information such as serial numbers and other unique identifiers. This helps in inventory management and traceability throughout the manufacturing process.
Safety information
Labels are used to convey important safety information and warnings. Safety labels help protect workers and users by providing clear instructions and pictographs highlighting potential risks.
Compliance and regulations
Labels are often required to comply with industry standards and regulations. They may include certification labels or compliance marks.
Service and maintenance
Labels can provide service and maintenance-related information, such as contact details for customer support, warranty information, or service reminders.
Customised industrial labels: tailor-made for your business
Our specialist team can advise on the best materials, adhesives, and finishes to ensure that labels remain intact and legible, even in harsh environments. We also understand the need to prioritise compliance with industry regulations and can create labels that both meet these, and provide detailed safety information to customers.
Technical Considerations for Industrial Labels
Based on our experience working with clients in this sector, a number of things need to be considered when creating industrial labels:
Surface Compatibility
Understanding the surface to which the label is to be applied is key to guarantee good adhesion. In industry these are often metal or plastic, but it is important they must be clean, smooth, and non-porous.
Intended Environment
Labels can become unstuck or lose their adhesive strength over time, especially in harsh conditions such as high heat or moisture. It is vital that these are considered in order to select the best combination of material and finish for your label.
Design
Labels in this sector are often placed on very specific parts of machinery and equipment. They may need to be die-cut to a bespoke shape and size, or require text to be printed to a very small size.
Solving Your Industrial Labelling Challenges
Sticky business
Our experts are regularly tasked with producing labels for more unusual surfaces in this arena that are not best suited to standard adhesives.
For example, one customer presented us with the challenge of producing a label that needed to be applied to the highly curved metal surface of a very specialist engineering device.
We presented the customer with a high tack alternative that ensured the labels did exactly what they needed to.
Read the small print
Another challenge regularly faced in this area is the need for extremely small text. By using our highly accurate UV digital inkjet Domino N610i printer our team can easily create high resolution small point text.
