Christmas is know to be the busiest time of the year for traders, with everyone ordering presents and festive accessories for their homes. It can be a chance to inspire real loyalty in your customers, by providing a reliable service during a time of year when everyone is a little more stressed and eager for things to arrive. On the other side of the coin, it can also be an extremely risky time for retailers, who have to deal with a heightened volume of orders, making the process more time-consuming and problematic to deal with. 

To ensure that your shipping process is as efficient and error-free as it should be this Christmas, it's important that you stock up on the right set of packaging labels, in order to maximize your chances of delivering the best possible service to your customers. Here at Label Source, we have a variety of packaging materials to aid the process, allowing you to advise the correct delivery instructions for the products in a clear and concise way.

At Label Source we stock:

• Instructional Shipping Labels - Our Shipping Transit Labels give clear instructions on how to handle goods, in relation to the movement and storage of the items contained. We also provide Heavy Duty labels to withstand troublesome conditions.

• Visual Handling Instructions - Our Packaging Handling Labels give purely visual instructions, for easy comprehension. Alternatively, we also stock Self-Adhesive Packaging Labels without visual symbols, with short and concise phrasing.

• Dispatch labels - These labels give clear and easy-to-read instructions regarding the contents of a load, as well as its position in the ship cycle.

• Packing Tape - We stock a range of high quality packing tape with a selection of instructional messages to choose from. 

• Packing and Shipping Stencils - These stencils display many of the same messages as the labels, but are reusable and work particularly well for large items such as wooden crates.

For organisations of all sizes, there can be a range of site security issues, requiring you to prevent unauthorised entry to your site or premises. This can be to deter loss or damage to company property, or to look after the health, safety and welfare of staff, contractors, visitors or the general public. This refers not only to buildings, but also construction sites, temporary outdoor events, car parks, vacant property and grounds.

Label Source has a range of security signs, which comply with the latest health and safety legislation, fulfil your obligations under the Data Protection Act to safeguard the rights of the individual, and assist in meeting insurance policy requirements. Also, we have produced many more signs to meet our customers' pecific requirements.

Common signs cover such things as CCTV surveillance and recording, use of security guards and patrol dogs, and use of physical security measures such as the use of razor or barbed wire, wall spikes, electric fencing or anti-vandal paint.

Therefore, if you believe that you may be susceptible to vandalism, tampering, arson, theft, fly tipping or any other malicious damage, our signs can clearly identify your security measures on your property to act as a deterrent to illegal entry.
