Pipeline labeling for reliable adhesion on rounding
The pipes must be marked correctly so they can be unambiguously identified by the type plate labels or pipeline ribbons at a later time. For installation, repair and troubleshooting the technicians depend on the information on the labeling of the pipes. The pipeline labeling adheres safely to high- and low-energy substrates as well as to powder coatings, slightly oily or structured substrates. They must provide high printability for the subsequent thermal transfer printing on customer’s site.
The main features of pipeline labeling
- Reliable adhesion to middle-sized and large radii
- The labels are very flexible and soft and smooth
- No butterfly effect, due to high adhesive power the detaching of the edges will be prevented
- Complete close fitting of the label to the substrate, thus no intrusion of chemicals, liquids or dirt. Also solutions for outdoor application available.
- Safe adhesion to low-energy or oily substrates and structured surfaces
- Also in larger formats easy to apply manually, e.g. by flaps or slits on the back
- High abrasion resistance with suitable thermal transfer ribbons for the thermal transfer printing
- Suitable for standard-compliant labeling like e.g. FMVSS
- Plain and preprinted labels in individual formats and special forms
Functions and advantages – precisely tailored to safe identification in the area of pipeline labeling
The labels for rounded surfaces allow for the safe assignment of pipelines and have the load capacity of type plates. The information must be reliably placed, partially in a small space. The labels offer high flexibility in regard of material and will be individually adjusted to the customer specifications. This happens with the help of suitable special materials of leading manufacturers, individual die-cutting forms and premium adhesives.
The criteria for material choice are e.g. ambient conditions, application temperatures, flammability requirements and individual customer specifications.
The labels can be delivered directly as required in variable amounts, by that the storage and the management of numerous labels may be reduced or dropped.
Our upscale and accurate processing with most modern die-cutting technologies guarantees the highest precision and reliability for the application of pipeline labels. Thus even labels with adhesives which are difficult to process can be processed mechanically very well, which increases the user efficiency in the long term.
