Tip N Tell Labels

Tip N Tells labels (or indicators) are used to tell if packages have been tipped over or put on their side during transit. These brightly-colored labels contain a V-shaped arrow that is half-filled with blue dye. If the package is tipped more than 80° from vertical, the white part of the arrow turns blue, making it easy to identify package mishandling. Tip N Tell labels are internationally-recognized, making them ideal for shipping sensitive packages abroad.Get Quote

Shock Watch Labels

Similar to Tip N Tell Labels, Shock Watch labels (aka indicators) are used to detect package mishandling. They have a small indicator that turns red when the package has been exposed to a potentially damaging impact during transit. These indicators can detect an impact from the top, bottom, sides, or even corners. Shock Watch labels are available for a wide range of package sizes and weights, generally denoted by their color.Get Quote

Pictorial Labels

Pictorial labels use images that convey quick information about packages. Most of the time these are used as Caution or Warning labels like examples listed above, but other examples of pictorial labels include:

• Fragile - Delicate Instruments
• Do Not Stack
• Keep Dry
• Do Not Use Blades To Open

Thermal Transfer Labels + Ribbons

Thermal transfer labels are created by running a ribbon of ink between a label and printhead. When heated, the printhead transfers the ink from the ribbon onto the label. The ink in transfer ribbons can be made for simple, everyday printing, or rougher use - like being able to withstand chemicals or solvents. Thermal transfer labels generally are long lasting and able to withstand moisture, abrasion, and UV fairly well.Get Quote
