At Custom Labels Ltd, we believe that exceptional products start with exceptional materials. Our commitment to quality runs through everything we do from the raw materials we source to the cutting-edge digital printing technology we’ve invested in. This focus allows us to deliver premium asset tags and graphic overlays that meet the needs of a wide variety of industries, including healthcare, aerospace, education, and manufacturing.
We’ve embraced digital printing as a way to improve both efficiency and quality, offering our customers vibrant, high-resolution graphics, faster turnaround times, and a more consistent product overall. But our reputation isn’t just built on speed it’s built on durability, performance, and reliability.
Tough, High-Performance Asset Labels
Asset identification is a critical part of equipment management, security, and compliance. Our range of asset tags is designed to stand up to the harshest environments and applications, ensuring your assets remain clearly marked and traceable for years.
Ultimate Asset Tags™: Engineered for the Extreme
Our Ultimate Asset Tags™ are one of the most robust solutions available. Made using a combination of polycarbonate and full-colour UV-resistant under-surface printing, these tags are built to last. They can be paired with either 3M 467 or 3M 468 permanent adhesives, both of which are renowned for their strength and long-term durability. Whether you’re applying them to smooth surfaces or more textured ones, these adhesives provide a solid, long-lasting bond.
These tags resist high temperatures, moisture, and chemicals including solvents, oils, and disinfectants. They also maintain their performance through exposure to humidity and extreme hot or cold cycles. For plastic applications, they even offer initial repositionability, making installation easier and more forgiving.
These tags are particularly well suited for demanding industries like automotive, aerospace, electronics, and industrial equipment manufacturing, where long-term reliability is non-negotiable.
Ultra Destruct Vinyl: Tamper-Evident
Our Ultra Destruct Vinyl tags are the go-to solution for clients needing an added layer of security. This destructible vinyl material is engineered to fragment when someone attempts to remove it, effectively deterring theft and preventing tampering or label relocation. It’s a popular choice for educational institutions, public sector organisations, and anywhere asset protection is a priority.
These labels use a 3M Gloss White or Silver Platinum polyester with a tough clear laminate, making them both waterproof and resilient. The top layer is thermal-transfer printable and performs exceptionally well when printed with resin ribbons. They’re backed by 3M’s 350E adhesive, known for its compatibility with a wide range of surfaces, from high to low energy substrates, and are UL (Underwriters Laboratories) and cUL (Canadian Underwriters Laboratories) recognised for added peace of mind.
UltraTuff Asset Tags
When you need labels that will endure heavy wear and tear, UltraTuff Asset Tags are a smart choice. These tags feature a velvet, mark-resistant vinyl and Flexcon adhesive, which is engineered to withstand heat, chemicals, vibration, and more. Designed for flat surfaces, UltraTuff tags hold up well in industrial, outdoor, and high-abuse environments. They’re a perfect match for businesses looking for long-term asset tracking with minimal maintenance.
Graphic Overlays & Control Panel Labels
In addition to asset tags, we specialise in high-performance graphic overlays used in control panels, membrane switches, and nameplates. These overlays combine robust materials with customisation features to meet a wide range of operational and aesthetic requirements.
We work with several high-quality materials including Polycarbonate, Polyester, PVC, and Vinyl. Polycarbonate is popular for its clarity and thermal stability, while Polyester offers enhanced toughness and durability, making it especially useful in chemically aggressive or high-wear environments. PVC and Vinyl offer more economical options while still delivering strong performance for less demanding applications.
Overlay options include chemical and UV-resistant coatings, a wide variety of finishes, and advanced features like embossing (rim, pillow, braille, or dome), filter windows, interchangeable legends, and precise colour matching. These overlays are designed to maintain performance and readability over time, even in the most challenging conditions.
Certified Quality and Environmental Responsibility
At Custom Labels Ltd, we don’t just aim to meet industry standards we strive to exceed them. We are proud to hold ISO 9001 accreditation, which confirms that our manufacturing processes meet strict international quality management standards. This ensures that we consistently deliver products that meet both customer expectations and regulatory requirements.
In addition to quality, we also take our environmental responsibility seriously. Our ISO 14001 certification reflects our dedication to reducing our environmental impact. From minimising waste to promoting sustainable materials and practices, we are committed to building a cleaner, greener future, one label at a time.
