Tool Tracking Labels: Never lose your tools again!

Tool tracking labels can help you organize and reduce the loss of tools in many situations. In your home garage or workshop, company warehouse, auto mechanic shop, fleet vehicles, and more. Missing or stolen tools can cost any person or business time and thousands of dollars a year, not to mention the inconvenience of not having the right tool when you need it.

By applying barcode and tracking labels, you will improve your inventory and cut down on loss. The upfront time you take to choose an affordable option that works best with your situation will save you much more time in the long run.

You can also choose from a variety of materials and sizes, depending on what type of tools you need to label. You can also order sequentially numbered tags, or upload your own custom numbering or unique data field.

Metal Tool Tracking Labels

Metal tool tracking labels provide the ultimate in durability. They can conform to curved surfaces and are easy to print and apply. They will outlast chemicals, solvents and, even, scouring pads. Anodized aluminum seals the graphics into pores of the aluminum. Barcodes and print cannot wash off.  These labels may even outlast your tools!

These types of labels are used by:

• utilities for pole marking
• warehouse pros for organization
• rental car fleets for tracking inventory
• universities for tracking bicycles
• the US Navy for asset labeling and tracking

Aluminum FoilGuard is a very affordable option. The labels are surface printed, 100% aluminum, and use an aggressive 3M adhesive.

Some other great features of these types of labels include:

• Secure and durable!
• Aluminum labels feature embedded print.
• Conforms to curves – ideal for tools.
• Security cuts in aluminum help to thwart vandals.
• The label cannot be moved to another tool.
• Durable aluminum outlasts plastic.

Plastic Tool Tracking Labels

Plastic tool tracking label options cost less than the metal ones and are still durable. However, they may last as long as the metal ones. They are still a great option for many situations. Plastic tool tracking labels are available in a variety of materials.

Economy Plastic, Metallized Polyester, & Paper Labels
