Forensic Label Product Highlights

Claim offer write this for description text for a pdf downloadable on a website (customer label printing company), Description: This fragile, yet resilient thermal transfer label will “fracture” and self-destruct if anyone tries to remove it. It works much like peeling paint - you have to chip at it and it will not come off in one piece! Due to its plastic construction, it is also waterproof and resistant to cleaning solutions. Common uses include asset tracking and warranty marking. The special high-performance Rubber adhesive demonstrates very high peel resistance from metal and high surface energy (HSE) plastics like polyester, polycarbonate, PVC, ABS and acrylic. It also offers high peel resistance on low surface energy (LSE) plastics such as polypropylene, polyethylene and polystyrene. Because of these characteristics, it may perform better in certain applications than our standard 623 Destructible product. It is not designed for use on vinyl. * Please allow 24-48 hours for your labels to setup before testing destructibility. The liner has been specially backcoated to prevent label pick-off. Compliance: RoHS and REACH SVHC Recommended Printing Ribbons: EIM Resins T68, T80, T84, and T96 Here’s a polished, web-ready description you can use for your downloadable PDF: Description: This destructible thermal transfer label is engineered to protect your assets and ensure tamper evidence. Designed to fracture upon removal, the label breaks apart into small pieces—similar to chipping paint—making it impossible to remove in one piece or reapply without visible damage. Constructed from a durable plastic film, this label is waterproof and resistant to cleaning solutions, making it ideal for demanding environments. Common applications include asset tracking, warranty labeling, and security identification where tamper evidence is critical. The high-performance rubber adhesive provides exceptional bond strength across a wide range of surfaces. It delivers very high peel resistance on metals and high surface energy (HSE) plastics such as polyester, polycarbonate, PVC, ABS, and acrylic. It also performs strongly on low surface energy (LSE) plastics including polypropylene, polyethylene, and polystyrene. In certain applications, this material may outperform our standard 623 destructible product. (Note: Not recommended for use on vinyl surfaces.) For optimal performance, allow 24–48 hours after application for the adhesive to fully set before testing destructibility. The liner features a specialized backcoating to prevent label pick-off during handling and application. Compliance: RoHS and REACH SVHC Recommended Printing Ribbons: EIM Resins T68, T80, T84, and T96 If you want, I can tighten this into a shorter “marketing” version or make it more technical depending on your audience. no description text for upload, backend meta data Got it — here’s a concise, SEO-friendly backend/meta description version: Meta Description: Destructible thermal transfer label designed for tamper-evident applications.

  • 585 Clear CryoLabel®

    This thermal transfer “wrap around” plastic comes with a colored block for printing barcodes. When sized properly, the clear section wraps completely around test tubes and back over the printed area, providing the durability of an over-laminate. Like our White CryoLabel®, this label can handle extreme cold storage.

What our customers are saying

Gwenn F. | Schwan Cosmetics USA, Inc.
“We have been looking for a label that was Chemical Resistant for our manufacturing facility and so far they are holding up well. A lot of our internal audits departments were failing due to the missing label, label not readable and to date no comments on audits for this reason.“

Michaela B. | NAMSA
“Very quick and professional customer service! I would absolutely order again. It is wonderful to be able to order labels on a fast and ad hoc/a la carte basis VS requiring the labels to be included in another service package, etc.“

Krystal L. | Clin-Path
“I always have a pleasant experience working with Electronic Imaging for our laboratory needs.“
