Applications

Recreational Vehicles

Whether they’re found on snowmobiles operating in subzero temperatures or motorcycles crossing the country, our high performance identification solutions meet harsh environmental and compliance standards.

Applications

Rail & Mass Transit

Subway systems, passenger rail cars and busses use our labels to reliably identify the components and systems that keep them moving.

  • Wire identification systems withstand harsh environments, including high engine temperatures
  • Warning labels to stay clear of moving parts / pinch-points / high voltage
  • Switchgear terminal identification for proper track side signaling
  • Rail Car Track & Trace Labeling
  • Anti-graffiti labels that wipe clean

Applications

Marine

From saltwater-resistant safety labels to wire markers engineered to perform in harsh offshore environments, our marine solutions are rigorously tested to meet strict compliance and performance requirements.

  • Labels designed to survive salt water spray and submersion
  • Emissions control labeling for EPA compliance
  • Labels that survive high temperatures in engine compartments
