FOCUS ON – Serial Number Labels

We could talk all day about which industries serial number labels can be used within as they are such a versatile product but that would be a very extensive list so in this article we will focus our attention on and discuss the use of serial number labels within the outdoor equipment and warehousing & logistics markets.

Serial Number Labels within the Outdoor Equipment Industry
This vast industry can have serial number labels that are to be used in all kind of environments for many different purposes. A bike company will need a serial number for their bike products that are able to stick to a curved substrate, withstand muddy dirt and then be cleaned. An anodised aluminium foil serial number label or polycarbonate serial number label would be ideal.

An anodised aluminium foil serial number label is the perfect solution because it is a heavy-duty label that can withstand outdoor environments. Anodising the aluminium is the process of electrically charging the material which in turn opens its pores that can then be printed into. The printed detail is then sealed beneath the anodic layer to create a very durable face to the serial number label.

Although metal serial number labels are desirable for the outdoor equipment industry there is also the option to have a plastic serial number label. We manufacture these by under-surface printing polycarbonate using UV ink. The polycarbonate acts as a barrier for the ink against external environments that can be harsh and unforgiving.

Uses for Serial Number Labels in the Warehousing & Logistics
An essential part of the warehousing and logistics market is speed and efficiency. Now more than ever we are relying on this market to provide us with delivery of goods. It is a market that has grown exponentially within the last year and GSM Online Label Sales has been here to support and help ease and speed through the use of serial number labels.

Using serial number labels for location point within the warehousing and logistics sector enables persons and parcels to ‘check in’ at various areas within the warehouse and along the route that a parcel may take. Our printed polycarbonate serial number labels are a perfect solution for use of racks and other location points. They are reverse printed so that the ink printed is protected by the clear material and therefore resistant to dust and scratch resistant surface.

Anodised aluminium foil serial number labels are the perfect solution for outdoor warehousing and logistic applications, potentially for use on a pallet. The aluminium is anodised which means that the printed ink is sealed beneath the anodic layer creating a weatherproof and hardy label that may be curved to fit around a rounded substrate.
