Wrap-around Cable Labels
To complement our engraved labels, we also provide very high quality, printed wrap-around cable labels. Our labels are thermally printed onto vinyl, which has two benefits; thermal printing is very durable and vinyl has no “memory” so once it is wrapped around a cable it will not try to un-wrap itself.

Electrical & Warning
Our engraved electrical, warning labels and signs are made to your exact specification, including warning images, arrows, different text sizes – basically anything you need them to display. They can be any size or shape and include cut out holes for lights, switches or screws. Made from micro capped acrylic. The products are available in a variety of thicknesses, from paper thin labels to fit a curved surface to rigid signs for outdoor use. They are available in various two colour combinations. Please refer to the website for the colour chart.

Blown Fibre & Warning Labels
We also supply rolls of printed Blown Fibre Warning Tape, as well as sheets of Fibre Optic Warning Stickers.

Engraved Tie-on Labels
Made from micro capped acrylic, these engraved labels are tied on to single cables or cable bundles using cable ties. Our Engraved Tie-on Labels are highly durable and flexible. Available in any size, to your exact specification.

Printed Tie-on Labels
Printed Tie-on Labels are a lower cost option to engraved. Made from polyester, these too are tied on to single or cable bundles using cable ties. Our printed Tie-on Labels are water resistant and very flexible. Available in yellow or white, both with black text.

Dibond Labels
Our dibond labels can be printed in full colour. They are made from combined materials, these are the thickest labels we supply. They are also the most durable due to having a polyethylene core, sandwiched between two layers of aluminium and finished with a high quality lacquered surface. These labels are lightweight and corrosive resistant, making them ideal for external use. They can be made to your exact size, shape and colour specification and are also available with either an adhesive backing or with cut out screw holes.

Vinyl Labels
Our vinyl labels can be printed in full colour. These labels are paper thin in thickness and have a glossy premium finish. They can be made to your exact size, shape and colour specification. The labels are produced with a peel off layer revealing a sticky adhesive backing. They can be applied to both flat or curved surfaces and are supplied in an easy to use sheet format.

Switch Templates
Switch Templates are a helpful aid in maintaining a constant workflow, as they allow engineers to carry out testing, regardless of whether the vital equipment has arrived in time. Templates are produced from 5mm cast acrylic, which is cut to create port socket apertures and also engraved for port identification. Company logo can also be added.
