Labels, some are engraved plastic tags and some are paper-based and have many uses, including marking food and drink, as well as letting people know when something contains something hazardous that they shouldn't be in contact with.
Other beneficial uses for labels themselves are keeping files organized, keeping track of books and of course just making sure individual ownership is clear on things like water bottles and food containers.
The only drawback to paper labels is that they're easily weakened by the sun’s rays and moisture damage. Ink will run in contact with enough water and the label will eventually fall off entirely.
The harshness of the sun and heat will fade the ink and weaken the adhesive binding the sticker on, causing it to follow suit. These two environmental elements make paper labels ineffective and impractical for use outdoors or anywhere where they will be exposed to moisture or direct sunlight.
A way to avoid these issues is with the use of engraved plastic tags and labels. Made of vinyl, these waterproof and durable labels are the best material for a long-lasting label made to stand up against any elements you want to throw at them, including direct sunlight, heat, and exposure to moisture.
If you love to camp, this option is definitely for you. No more worries about whose sandwich is whose, particularly if there are any allergy sufferers on your trip that need to make sure they know which meal is theirs.
Pop your food and drinks into a cooler with these waterproof labels on them and you won't have to worry about them not being stuck on the next time you open the lid. If you're also a boat-enthusiast, be it kayaks, canoes or fishing boats, these labels will work for them as well so you can identify which watercraft is yours, or your neighbors in the site next door.
You can put a tracking number or specially made ID number on your boat for easy recognition in any situation.
If you work with your tools as well as your hands, these durable labels are great or another usage, keeping track of your personal tools or the tools your company provides. This will help increase organization and reduce loss since it will be known quickly when something is missing.
On the job itself, these labels can be useful as well, such as in the case of labeling electrical boxes, parts, and equipment. Thanks to a very strong, permanent adhesive, these stickers will keep on sticking, even on difficult and rough surfaces. Waterproof vinyl plastic tags also can be made with fade-resistant, UV protected inks so they won't fade away from exposure to sunlight during their lifetime.
The lifetime of these waterproof custom engraved plastic tags abels is their superior lifetime of usage, a whopping five years in many cases before you have to attach new ones. If you get them extra-laminated that number increases to seven years. Well worth the money for a simple sticker that stays put for that long and serves such a useful purpose.
