42-> The tag as a flag – a reliable ambassador
The tag as a flag - an idea catches on. This idea was conceived in Steel Service Centers to be able to identify individual heavy plates in stacks. Manufacturers and distributors of sheet metal and plates rely on this solution. When there is an offset in the stack, barcodes can no longer be read and visual recognition is no longer possible. A flag tag is the best solution.
For automatic recognition and capturing of stock movements or relocations, flag tags can be equipped with a transponder. The location of the steel plates can be captured effortlessly and entered into the company inventory system. Now it’s possible to match shipping requirements in real time and report completed loading procedures automatically. Please ask about our different flag tag options – with or without a transponder.
Application: Reliable ID of metal sheets and plates
Benefit: Warehouse efficiency with barcode and/or RFID

41-> Engineering companies rely on versatile GRAPHIPLAST® solution
There are lots of ways of fastening tags to products in factory and warehouse environments (protective wallets, adhesive tapes, glue sticks, etc.). Our multi-functional tags are equipped with high tech adhesives that stick to virtually any surface and leave no residue during and after removal. This ITI solution is both functional and effective - a hang tag that can also be applied as a self-adhesive label to plastic, metal, packaging and even on anti-corrosion oil. The ITI poly tag, with a high tech adhesive, is the solution for shipping parts, equipment and other goods. It will stick, even when it is shipped to distant construction or customer sites. Please ask us for samples.

40-> GRAPHIPLAST® 7247 – a new superior foil at lower cost
The success of our specially formulated poly foil materials is due to a wide range of properties they provide. With a temperature tolerance of up to 1100F (580 °C), resistance to all known chemicals used in manufacturing processes, weather proof characteristics, tearing strength and a variety of other properties, we have set new standards for labeling and tagging for many years. However, until recently, none of our existing products managed to combine of all of these properties to the maximum. Our newly developed GRAPHIPLAST® 7247.151 represents a new generation of poly tags for thermal transfer printers and makes them superior to all their predecessors.
Application: Identification for harsh production environments
Benefit: Data security for production and shipping identification

39-> Strongest Adhesives on the Market
Quantity and quality of adhesive combined with adequate base material properties are important to insure proper bonding on difficult surface. Our labels carry optimal adhesive films to ensure strong bonding while reducing equipment maintenance/cleaning. These high tech adhesives tolerate oil, dirt/dust, acid/cleaning agents, water, weather, extreme cold and heat.

38-> RFID reliable technology for Steel Slabs
One of the objectives of modern identification technology is automated monitoring of product movements. Matching shipping specifications and manifests are used to prevent errors. Automation is key and data needs to carry itself. While moving steel slabs by crane for example, conventional barcode scanning is challenging. Radio frequency identification technology (RFID) including transponders ensures secure reading of data from a distance. The system was introduced during a pilot project of shipping steel slaps from Brazil to the US. This technology has been added to our ultra durable GRAPHIPLAST® 7278 labels and is available for immediate delivery.
