Utility Arborist Tags

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

Are you an utility arborist interested in proper identification for both power poles and trees? Then, we are here to help! National Band & Tag specializes in both Power Pole Tags and Tree Tags. Utility arborists who practice Utility Vegetation Management (UVM) keep vegetation in check around power lines to ensure there are no outages to the electricity and other essential services while also being a steward of the environment and protecting our ecosystems. Everyone wants access to power, but we shouldn’t chop down every tree next to a power pole, making UVM a very important practice.

According to the Utility Arborist Association (UAA),  “An increasing number of utilities follow the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) A-300 Part 1: Tree, Shrub and Other Woody Plant Maintenance – Standard Practices, Pruning. These guidelines, endorsed by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), promote directional pruning methods which minimize pruning stress and focus on tree health while obtaining necessary clearance from power lines.” Following these pruning standards are a great way to do what is best for the vegetation and power pole lines.

Power Pole Tags and Tree Tags can all be customized to meet your identification needs. Whether that is for treatment, inspection dates, last trimmed date, etc. Shown below are Style #137 round shape (1-1/4″) and Style #89 pie shape (7/8″ x 3/4″). The two tags overlap and have their holes line up so they can be nailed on to the tree or pole together. The tree tag on the left shows the company name and slogan on the round tag, and the tree inspection type and dates on the pie shaped tag. The power pole tag on the right shows the company and year date on the round tag, and the treatment on the pie shaped tag. These are just a two examples of what we can do. We have multiple tag styles and sizes to choose from to meet your needs.

LDAR Tags To Meet EPA Standards

/0 Comments/in , , , /by
WHAT IS LDAR AND WHY DO WE NEED LDAR PROGRAMS?

Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) focuses on any type of system that may leak volatile compounds or pollutants, such as valves, pumps, pressure relief systems, compressors and connectors. The purpose of a LDAR program is to identify a leaking valve and repair it as quickly as possible. Due to industrial organizations letting pollutants leak into the environment, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set forth the Clean Air Act of 1963. This federal mandate targets industrial facilities which emit volatile organic compounds and air pollutants.

LDAR techs monitor the levels of exposure the facility produces. When a leak is detected, it must be repaired within a few days. If the leak is not fixed in a timely manner, the organization can be hit with hefty fines and penalties. Metal LDAR Tags are used to identify any valves or pumps that could possibly leak. Each tag has a unique identification number. The ID number correlates to its location in the facility, what compound is leaking, and any other important information.

OTHER BENEFITS OF LDAR TRACKING:

Besides meeting EPA regulations and following the law. Other benefits include reduced product loss, and safety for your employees. Leaks mean you are losing your product. Quickly and efficiently fixing the issue can save money on lost product. Leaking hazardous chemicals will put your workers at risk. Fixing the leak can help ensure a safe work environment and prevent employee injury.

HOW NATIONAL BAND & TAG CAN HELP:

NB&T produces custom, metal, LDAR tags. We offer stainless steel tags for extremely harsh environments or colored aluminum tags for those who wish to color code their LDAR tags. Tags can be laser etched or stamped. See below for examples from our customers. Check out some of most popular tag styles for LDAR tags here: Round Tags, Square Tags, Rectangle Tags.

Dog Tags for Apartment Complexes

/0 Comments/in , /by

Apartment complexes, condos, HOA associations, and property managers can all keep track of the pets being kept in their residential housing with pet ID tags.

Benefits to having a Pet ID program:

  • Tag cost is covered by the resident’s pet fee
  • Know what serial number on the tag goes to what apartment number. If a dog gets lost and someone else in the complex finds them, you can help get them home.
  • If you have an enclosed dog park or pet area, for residents only, the tag can act as a visual pass so you know they are a resident.
  • By requiring dogs to wear the tag, you will be able to enforce approved dogs living in the apartments.  Residents won’t be able to easily hide a new dog to avoid the fees.
  • Serial numbers on the tags can be paired with any pet waste management system that you are already using to ID residents not picking up after their pets.

Shown below are two example tags, Style 165 bone and Style 137 circle. We have over 160 pet ID tags to choose from, which you can view here. All of our dog and cat ID tags can be made in colored aluminum, plain aluminum, stainless steel or brass with your customized stamping.

Custom Warehouse Identification Tags

/1 Comment/in , , , , /by

National Band & Tag is your go-to company for all your custom warehouse identification needs. Large warehouses are always in need of proper asset management and inventory management. We can produce custom-designed tags in multiple types of materials to meet your specific ID needs. Check out our materials, and examples from customers below.

 

METAL TAGS

Our heavy-duty metal tags come in a variety of materials to meet your warehouse’s environment. Stainless Steel tags are available for environments with extreme heat or cold, or that deal with harsh chemicals. Colored Aluminum is available for when color coding is necessary, or UV Stable Black Aluminum is available for a high contrasting, easy to read tag. Hole sizes and locations are customizable, so you can have 2 – 4 holes for attaching to a shelving unit, or 1 hole at the top to hang the tag. All of our tags can be customized with logos, numbers, text, barcodes, etc. For barcodes, we offer a 2D Data matrix, Linear Code 39 or Code 128, or a QR Code.

The tag below is an example from a customer who needed an extra-large barcode so they could scan the barcode on the floor while sitting on the fork-lift. This makes picking inventory off the shelf easier and faster for them by not having to get on and off the forklift to scan it out. (Style #14, 3″ x 5″, 2D Data Matrix Barcode, UV Stable Aluminum).

PLASTIC TAGS

Plastic tags are an option if you need a temporary ID solution, or something colorful and flexible. We offer .020″ vinyl plastic that is thin and can be nailed or stapled. We also offer a thicker, but still flexible polyurethane material in select styles. Color options vary by style number.

The tags below are an example from a customer that used these flexible barcoded tags to staple to a wooden pallet. (Style #144VLE, 1″ x 3″, yellow vinyl snap-off tag).

BLANK TAGS / WRITE-ON TAGS FOR ON-SITE IDENTIFICATION

Any of our metal or plastic tags can be produced blank so that you can engrave them yourself. We also offer Write-On Tags, which can be engraved with a ball-point pen or sharp object. These methods are better for warehouse management that requires quick, on-site, identification. For your blank tags, we offer a Battery Powered Precision Engraver with Diamond Tip Bit (Style R1580) and Hardened Steel Hand Stamps, gothic style, letters, and numbers for hand stamping tags (Styles 1571 & 1572).

Paint-Filled Tags

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Want your tags to stand out?

White and black paint fill is available to help stamped characters and logos stand out to be highly visible and easy to read!

Dog and cat tags and industrial tags will be an additional $.15 each (per side). All other tags (wing bands, leg bands, mouse ear tags, etc.) are $.06 each (per side).

All of our paint fill is done by hand so we ask for an additional 1-3 weeks on your order, depending on the quantity and size of your tags to be paint filled.

White paint fill is recommended for: red, green, blue, purple, and black colored aluminum tags.

Black paint fill is recommended for: gold, yellow, orange, white, and plain colored aluminum, stainless steel, and brass tags.

Boat Hull ID Number (HIN) Tags

/0 Comments/in , , , , /by

CLICK TO ORDER YOUR HIN TAG NOW!

According to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, “More than 13,000 Iowa boat owners will be receiving a letter soon alerting them that their boat hull identification number (HIN) does not comply with U.S. Coast Guard regulations and they have to verify their HIN with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) in order to register their boat.” This mistake is from the old manufacturer issuing incorrect Hull Id Numbers (HIN) to boaters. So now, before a boater’s registration expires on April 30, 2016, they will need to contact the Iowa DNR and verify the HIN.

Boaters with incorrect numbers will be required to acquire new HIN tags for their boat, which is where National Band & Tag comes in! Just fill out our quick and easy HIN Tag Form here: https://nationalband.com/hin-tags/ and enter your new hull ID number (12 alphanumeric digits) as well as if you would like 1 or 2 HIN tags for your boat! Our heavy duty non-corrosive stainless steel tags will be custom stamped with your HIN and will last for years on your boat.
