SLP Labels

New and really strong:

Toughie labels by SEIKO Instruments

Now available: The resistant Toughie Label.

The Toughie label is chemical, ultra violet and tear resistant.

Regarding the UV resistance of this label, an imaged label will last more than five years in an office environment. Our regular labels itself have lasted (text is readable, and bar codes scannable even though the label has turned yellow) more than five years in a typical office environment. Because of the varying nature of environmental conditions and applications the labels can be exposed to, it is difficult to affix a guarantee period for the longevity of the labels. The guarantee period will have to be determined on a case by case basis.
