In a business world which needs to keep a constant check on valuable assets, asset labels are invaluable tools.
In the past asset labels usually used a simple numbering system to define between separate assets. A log of the assets would be kept in paper form and the assets manually checked on a frequent basis.
With technological advances however, asset tracking has been made a lot easier. Asset labels can now be printed with a unique barcode which can be read easily and quickly using a barcode scanner. The database containing the information about the asset can then be updated or changed as required.
New asset labels can contain a numbering system, a barcode and even a company logo or other printed text on the label. For companies which provide asset tracking services, this can provide a unique point of marketing and point of recall for the owner of the asset.
Factories may have many machines or pieces of equipment which need to be tracked and monitored. If the assets are being used in an industrial environment, the label can be manufactured out of tough and durable anodised aluminium, making the labels perfect for indoor and outdoor use. These labels are resistant to sunlight, abrasion, solvents and will not chip or crack.
