Use of DuraBlack Asset Labels: The Only On-site Asset Identification Signage You Need
Asset identification and labelling are essential for organisations to track and manage their equipment, machinery, and property effectively. It provides a systematic approach to inventory management, enabling businesses to maintain accurate records of their assets.
Effective asset identification signage is crucial in maintaining operational efficiency and safety, especially in industries where precision and durability are paramount. This process not only streamlines operations by facilitating quick identification and retrieval of equipment but also ensures that maintenance schedules are adhered to promptly. Moreover, clear and visible asset identification enhances overall workplace safety by reducing the risk of operational errors and promoting efficient emergency responses. By investing in robust asset identification signage, organisations can foster a more organised and secure working environment while optimising their resource allocation strategies.
With several materials available for creating asset labels, DuraBlack is one of the most versatile and reliable solutions. In this blog, you will find out more about the benefits and applications of DuraBlack Asset Labels, highlighting why they are the preferred choice for on-site asset identification.
What is DuraBlack?
It is a specially designed CO2 laser markable aluminium that excels in demanding environments. Unlike traditional methods, it does not require chemical pre-treatment or a protective topcoat. It boasts exceptional resistance to UV radiation, abrasion, high temperatures, and chemicals, making it ideal for harsh industrial settings where durability is non-negotiable. Due to its durability across a range of challenging environments, it meets several government, industrial and military specifications including MIL-STD 130N, A-A-50271 (≈MIL-P-514D) and MIL-STD-15024G, Type L.
Advantages of DuraBlack
DuraBlack surpasses other materials like black anodised aluminium and laser markable acrylic tape in rigorous performance tests. Its durability ensures long-lasting visibility and readability, crucial for asset identification in challenging environmental or chemical conditions. The material offers flexibility in attachment methods, including adhesive backing, riveting, or screwing, and is available in pre-cut blanks for easy application across various surfaces.
Applications of DuraBlack
DuraBlack is ideal for many applications, including outdoor signage, asset & property tags, barcode labels, and industrial nameplates. It excels in outdoor environments where exposure to weather elements is a concern. It also maintains its integrity and readability over time, making it ideal for permanent outdoor asset identification.
Whether it is labelling machinery, tools, or infrastructure, DuraBlack provides clear and durable identification that withstands the rigours of industrial use. With its high-resolution laser marking capabilities, it ensures accurate barcode scanning, facilitating efficient inventory management and asset tracking. In industrial settings requiring robust identification solutions, it offers a reliable choice for nameplates that need to endure tough conditions while remaining legible.
