The Broadest Barcode Label and Tag Offering, Rigorously Quality Tested, Ready for Your Application

Zebra Has the Right Label!

Not every barcode label is created equal. There are thousands of different label and tag materials available – each with their own set of features that affect durability and printer performance. To ensure your labels match your needs, our material sciences experts have pre-tested, selected and certified the highest-performing label and tag materials to assure durable print and minimal printer wear and tear, while also considering your budget and application.

Extensive Pre-Testing

When we say we test our labels, we mean it. Our supplies go through rigorous testing across a wide range of printers, print speeds and darkness settings to ensure print quality and durability. We also test them in harsh conditions using specialized equipment to rate durability to outdoor elements, abrasion, harsh chemicals and extreme temperatures to provide only the toughest labels guaranteed to fit your purpose—and go the distance.

Every Type of Label

With more than 400 stocked ZipShip paper and synthetic labels and tags – all ready to ship within 24 hours – Zebra has the right label and tag on hand for your application. From synthetic materials to basic paper solutions, custom to compliance requirements, hard-to-label surfaces to easy-to-remove labels, or tamper-evident to tear-proof, we have more than 90 material options to meet your unique needs.

Unmatched Quality

Other manufacturers swap out materials to increase their profits – leaving you high and dry when your labels don’t perform like they used to. Instead of substituting materials, Zebra utilizes an ISO 9001 certified, 23-point quality inspection to ensure consistent quality. And, we only use thermal-compatible inks and varnishes to safeguard printer performance.

As Honeywell grows and competes in this global market, we must find ways to improve productivity, performance, efficiency and cost management.

After a thorough evaluation, the decision has been made to close the media business and Fairfield, OH site to respond to continued changes in customer demand. This will allow PSS to focus on and grow its core offerings and invest in new technologies to drive growth into next-generation solutions. This transition enables the business to better help customers tackle their toughest problems related to the cost and availability of labor and productivity-enabled growth. Full closure of the business will occur by Q2 2024.

What does this mean for you?

• If you have an existing order, we are working to fulfill it.
• For future orders, if Honeywell cannot guarantee a production date before December 15, 2023, such order(s) may not be accepted. Orders may be subject to a last-time buy fee of 10%.
• The last day to place an order for products will be November 17, 2023, but we are encouraging customers to place their orders as soon as possible to increase the chance of fulfillment.

For further questions, please contact your local Honeywell representative at Tri State Business Systems!

We remain committed to offering you excellent service during this time of change and appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Chemical drums are crucial in industries that deal with hazardous substances. These drums protect the environment and individuals from exposure to harmful chemicals. The quality of printing on chemical drums plays an essential role in ensuring safe handling, storage, and transport of these chemicals. In this article, we will discuss the importance of quality long-lasting printing on chemical drums.

Compliance with Regulations:

Chemical drums are regulated by various laws, including the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS). This system requires the labeling of chemical drums with information such as the product name, hazardous ingredients, pictograms, and precautionary statements. Quality long-lasting printing ensures that the required information remains visible and legible for the lifespan of the container. This compliance with regulations not only avoids fines and penalties but also ensures the safety of workers and the environment.

Clear Communication:

Clear and concise communication is essential when handling hazardous chemicals. Quality long-lasting printing on chemical drums ensures that workers can quickly identify the contents of the container and the necessary precautions to take. This information helps to prevent accidents, injuries, and even fatalities in the workplace.

Durability:

Chemical drums are often exposed to harsh environments, such as extreme temperatures, moisture, and sunlight. Poor-quality printing can fade, scratch or smudge, making it difficult to read the label. This can lead to confusion and mistakes, which can have serious consequences. Quality long-lasting printing ensures that the label remains legible for the lifespan of the container, even in harsh environments.

Cost-Effective:

Poor-quality printing on chemical drums may require replacement, leading to additional costs. Quality long-lasting printing ensures that the label remains legible for the lifespan of the container, reducing the need for replacements. This saves time and money in the long run.

Quality long-lasting printing on chemical drums is crucial in ensuring safe handling, storage, and transport of hazardous chemicals. It ensures compliance with regulations, clear communication, durability, brand recognition, and cost-effectiveness. As such, companies should prioritize quality printing when designing and manufacturing chemical drums.
