Why waste time and effort designing and printing out your own asset tags when you could simply order preprinted asset tags from us at Label Source? We have supplied asset tracking products to a huge variety of different businesses over the years, and our expertise extends to a range of different solutions, including:
When you order your preprinted asset tags from Label Source, you don't just get to specify the serial/barcode numbers that will appear on your labels - you can also choose your print colour, add custom text (e.g. 'Property of BestCo Ltd'), and even give additional artwork instructions for our design team to follow.
This means that you can order custom-printed asset labels that harmonise perfectly with your company's brand identity. Here are some examples of what we're capable of delivering.
Types of Preprinted Asset Tags from Label Source
We have preprinted labels to suit all of your needs - but the customisation options don't end there! Our preprinted asset tags are also available in an extensive range of different materials, allowing you to order exactly the right labels for the job. Choose from the following options:

If your business uses manual and/or electrical tools on a regular basis, it's important that these items are safely monitored, in order to ensure that they are in good working order, and to prevent the chances of a possible loss or theft. This can be achieved by using a simple yet efficient property marking system, which allows all relevant information to be recorded clearly, for easy identification.
Here at Label Source, we provide a comprehensive range of security labels for tools, which are designed to provide a huge number of benefits, including durability and enhanced security. Below are just a few items in our selection, but we can happily provide a wider choice of bespoke labels, which are designed to meet individual specifications:
Equipment Identification Markers
These labels offer a simple marking system for tools and equipment, making visual comprehension clear and straightforward. They are available in a selection of colours, with either letters or numbers, and have the additional benefit of being waterproof, as well as abrasion/rub/chemical resistant.
Scanmark Destructable Barcode Labels
For those who would like enhanced tracking options, we provide a fantastic choice of barcode labels. The adhesive used on these labels is designed to offer an impressive level of initial tack and final adhesion, which combines to create a long-lasting and durable product, to be used with a variety of materials. The material also fragments upon attempted removal, providing additional security against attempts to tamper with the label once attached.
Cable Wrap Labels
For electrical tools, we have cable wrap security labels which can be marked with company details, and attached to the power cable of the device. This options is ideal for those who would like to avoid marking the item itself, while preserving the benefits of durability and damage resistance.

When your workplaces calls for the use and storage of expensive items, be it company equipment or stock, this requires a reliable and efficient tracking system. This can be performed by numbering and coding each individual item, assigning it a unique marker that makes it easy to identify and trace.
In order to carry out this vital security and monitoring activity, you'll need to employ a marking system that suits the individual needs of your products and work environment. Luckily, here at Label Source, we provide a comprehensive selection of asset tracking labels, that can be tailored to fit your unique requirements. To give you a better idea of the range that we are able to supply, here's a closer look at some of our products:
Serial Numbered Labels
These asset tracking labels can be personalised with custom text, in order to display a unique serial number, for the purpose of marking stock, inventory, fixtures and more. These are available in simple designs, and can also be further enhanced with company details, such as your name and logo.
Destructable Asset Labels
These custom printed labels are designed to provide an enhanced level of security, and are made from a tamper-proof, self-adhesive material that will fragment on attempted removal. This prevents your asset tracking labels from being removed or transferred, which is highly important in cases of theft, and for keeping track of maintenance operations correctly.
Tamper Evident Asset Tags
These labels also have enhanced security properties, leaving behind a permanent mark as evidence of removal. Due to the fact that both parts of the label separate on removal, this also prevents an individual from attempting to re-apply the label.

It can be very difficult to distinguish one cable to another. Especially when they look practically identical! We've all had to go through that agonising situation of having to decide what to unplug - and it always ends up being the wrong one. This unpleasant situation can easily be avoided if you had one of these Laser Printable Cable Labels. They're really simple to use and will make your life a lot easier.
Our cable labels are supplied on an A4 sheet format, making them ideal for printing by most laser printers, copier machines, or can be hand written. These labels have a coloured printed block with a clear wrap around tail, providing a self-laminating protection over the block (with your added printed details), when wound around cables, wires or electrical leads.
Our Laser Printable Cable Labels come in five colour options - blue, green, red, yellow and white. They're 0.025mm thick, are permanennetly adhesive, and are colourfast, waterproof and abrasion, and chemical resistant. The operating temperatures for these labels are -40°C to +150°C, so they can survive even the harshest conditions. Our pack size is 25 sheets, and are available in 13 different label size options and these are suitable for use on cable diameters of 1.7mm to 35mm.

For those who work with electrical components, it is absolutely essential to ensure that precautions are taken against the risk of electrostatic damage, which can lead to everything from item failure and impairment of function, to fires and explosions. In today's blog, we will take a closer look at the risks surrounding electrostatic sensitive devices, along with possible causes of damage, and how this can be prevented:
What are Electrostatic Sensitive Devices?
Some common ESD devices include:
- MOSFET transistors: Used in the making of integrated circuits (microchips).
- Computer/Expansion Cards: Printed circuit board that can be used to add functionality to a computer system.
- Laser Diodes: Used for fiber optic communications, barcode readers, laser printing and more.
(ESD bonding point label)
How Does Electrostatic Damage Occur?
This type of damage is caused by the effects of an electric filed surrounding the charged object. Electric fields have the ability to generate currents in conductors, with the size depending on the strength of the electrical field and the speed of movement. This can lead to the device becoming polarised, with subsequent handling causing charging and discharging.
- Discharge: In cases where the field is suddenly grounded, and the movement of the charge creates currents. For example, a human can build up a charge on their clothing when walking on a carpet. When we approach a conductive surface (e.g metal door handle), this can cause the charge to exceed the insulating ability of the air, causing a spark.
- Induction: When a conductor moves in a magnetic field that generates an electric current, or the magnetic field moves and the conductor is at rest.
- Polarization: When the electric field and sensitive device remain stationary, but close to each other. For example, whena styrofoam cup is placed next to a sensitive device, such as a microchip. If the device comes into contact with a negative charge, and then discharges onto a grounded surface, this can damage the device.

How Can I Prevent Electrostatic Damage?
- Cover work stations with a conductive material/surface
- Remove nonconductive materials (e.g styrofoam, cellophane etc)
- Ground yourself by touching a conductive surface
- Wear a writ strap that connects you to ground in a static-safe area
- Carry materials in static-shielding containers
- Remove components on a static-safe work surface
Using the Correct Safety Signs:
The last step that should be observed for safe ESD working, is making the potential hazards and safe working procedures known to employees. This can be done by using the correct warning/instructional signs and labels. To see the range of signs and labels we supply for use with electrostatic sensitive devices and work areas, click here.
