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).

Inspection Tags and Equipment Tags

/1 Comment/in /by

Inspection tags and equipment tags are essential to keeping work environments safe, efficient, and accident-free. Tags are a way to visually communicate workplace hazards and which equipment has been inspected. Keeping your equipment running correctly, while also meeting compliance regulations, will ensure operations in your facility are going smoothly. When workers use inspection tags to record inspections, and equipment tags to record maintenance, it allows employees to see when the next service should take place.

Tags that show equipment, machinery, tools, and other assets have been inspected is important for workplace safety and to meet compliance regulations. Inspection tags also save you time and money by making sure everything is running correctly. It usually costs a lot less to have equipment repaired than replaced. Safety managers need to make sure all parts of the facility are up to the standards set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). By doing this, they are not only staying OSHA compliant but showing their employees that they can provide a safe workspace. Safety inspections can include everything from inspecting fall protection equipment, elevators, heavy-equipment, safety gear, hardware, etc.

There are many types of cheap inspection labels on the market, but National Band & Tag provides low-cost heavy-duty inspection tags. Our metal tags are more efficient than plastic labels for inspection identification because they won’t rip or fade.  Durable materials such as aluminum and stainless steel are perfect for harsh environments and will last for years. We make our custom tags to order so that they meet your company’s specific identification needs. Text is customizable, which allows you to design your own tags for inspection, service records, maintenance records, tested tags, etc. Choose what dates you want on your tags to meet weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annual inspections.

Leak Detection and Repair Tags

If you need custom LDAR Tags to work with your LDAR program and asset management system, NB&T’s customizable tags can meet your needs. Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) regulations were put into place by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) because of the amount of volatile organic compounds and volatile hazardous air pollutants being emitted by leaking equipment such as valves and pumps.

Tagging is an important component of any LDAR program because everything needs an ID. Every regulated component (valve/pump/connectors/compressors/etc.) must have a unique identification number, along with an identified location. An LDAR program is the system of procedures a facility uses to locate and repair leaking components. This minimizes the emission of fugitive volatile organic compounds and hazardous air pollutants. Asset management systems that utilize LDAR Tags can help monitor the lifecycles of these components, as well as help perform reliability studies on equipment. Knowing when equipment needs repair or replacing ahead of time reduces time and increases efficiency.

Environmental Management Tags

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Did you know, National Band & Tag can assist environmental agencies, consulting firms, and other environmental services? Current environmental customers of ours are usually working to help protect the environment by helping companies and municipalities meet the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) requirements.

Some of the solutions our customers offer are permitting for projects with impact on wetlands, solutions for infrastructure of urban water planning, stormwater solutions to address issues of a single outfall or throughout an entire watershed, environmental assessments, testing of air, drinking water, wastewater, and more.

Tree Tags – Environmental customers use tree tags to label trees that are for stormwater, should not be cut down, or to ID ownership. An urban forest management plan gives public works agencies detailed information, recommendations, and resources needed to effectively and proactively manage public trees. Urban forest management may use tree tags like the picture below to ID public trees.
