We offer a wide range of valve marking tags here at Label Source. In this blog post, we will detail each of the available options, allowing you to make an informed decision and select the right valve tag for your requirements.

• Brass tags are corrosion-resistant and non-magnetic. They conduct heat and electricity, and they are highly durable. Available with serial numbers, or customised to your specifications.
   
• Aluminium tags are lighter than our brass products; they are also highly reflective. Coloured aluminium can be a particularly eye-catching choice.
  
  
• Plastic tags are resistant to solvents, acids and alkalis, and we have nine different colour combinations to choose from. Like the brass tags, our plastic tags come with serial numbers or customised to meet your needs.
  
  
• Finally, our valve control tags are made of durable, tear-resistant plastic and specifically designed to inform workers whether a valve is 'open' or 'closed'.

Recently, our range of high visibility, polypropylene tags have been used by a number of organisations to mark diseased trees in woodlands.

These tags are produced in 0.5mm polypropylene, a tear resistant, shatterproof plastic, which can be easily affixed by nailing or stapling. Infected tree species, suffering from ranges of bacterial or viral infections or fungal decay can be identified by using these colour coded tags.

The most popular ranges are the circular tags, particularly the 42mm diameter and 55mm diameter versions. These have been used in the Royal Parks, and by tree husbandry, tree care or arboricultural companies to identified diseased tree species including ash, oak, elm, spruce and horse chestnut.
