Labels for applications up to 1250°C

Labels for applications up to 1250°C

This revolutionary range of materials provides a reliable identification approach to metal makers that can withstand truly intense heat. They are also designed to cope with outdoor environments and chemical exposure.

They allow identification by printing barcodes and variable data to be added to production lines through manual or automatic application. This improves the monitoring and management of materials automatically across the entire supply chain, reducing the risk of human error and increasing efficiency and safety.

These types of labels and tags are suitable for use on steel – such as slabs, blooms, bars, coils (hot), billets and wires, and also for aluminum applications. The product range also includes label and tag materials suitable for ceramics and precious metals.

Self-adhesive labels and heat-resistant product tags cover three categories:

  1. Application at room temperature and therefore exposure to extreme heat. Uses include metals that are subjected to a secondary heating process – such as homogenization, annealing or baking.
  2. Application at extreme temperatures (up to 800°C), made possible thanks to a proprietary heat-resistant adhesive. This eliminates the need to wait until a metal has cooled to identify goods with thermal transfer printed barcodes, with direct application immediately following the casting process.
  3. Materials Tags (mechanically connected to the goods). Applications are like point (1) above. Appropriate tags can also be provided for application in reducing atmospheres or chemical transformation.
