Q. Why were engraved labels used in the Data communications industry in the first place?
A. Presentation and cost. They look professional and before the advent of digital ‘plate-less’ printing techniques, engraving was the only cost effective way of making labels with unique numbering schemes.
Q. Are engraved labels more hardwearing than digital ones?
A. No. Both types are made from the same material with a colour applied to the surface. Both have similar wear characteristics as well.
Q. Can the digital ink be attacked by thinners, solvents or cleaning fluids?
A. No. It is chemically cured, turning from an ink into a polymer and cannot be removed with any of the above. Unlike the colour coating on laser engraved labels.
Q. Will the print on digital labels fade?
A. No. Our digital labels are external grade and as such are more UV stable than laser engraved labels, which are internal grade only.
Q. How long do you guarantee all your labels for?
A. 25 years of the life of the installation, subject to normal indoor use.
Q. Do the old style engraved labels have any advantages over the new digital versions?
A. No, none. Digital labels are superior in all aspects and because there is no engraved recess for dirt and grime to accumulate in, they stay looking better for longer. Plus, they are wipe clean.
Q. Have you stopped making laser engraved labels?
A. No. We still supply them if required. For instance, for very small orders or on retro fits to match the existing labeling scheme.
