Industrial & chemical

Labels for drums, IBCs and worse

Solvent splash, UV exposure, salt spray, forklifts — industrial labels are safety documents that must stay attached and legible for years, on surfaces nothing wants to stick to.

Chemical containers with GHS labels

What the label is up against

The conditions we design for

1

Chemical resistance

PET and PE faces with resin printing that stay legible through solvent contact, spills and repeated wash-downs.

2

Outdoor & UV

Constructions rated for years of sun, rain and temperature cycling — GHS panels that never fade to guesswork.

3

Difficult surfaces

High-tack and extra-adhesive systems for drums, IBCs, powder-coated metal and low-surface-energy plastics.

Recommended constructions

Where we usually start

Every job is matched individually — these are the constructions that most often win in industrial and chemical.

Drums & marine

PE film, BS5609-ready

The construction path for sea-freight chemical labelling.

Harsh chemicals

PET + high-tack

Maximum face durability with adhesion that keeps hold on metals.

Long legibility

Thermal transfer synthetics

Resin-printed synthetics for years of outdoor identification.

Low-energy plastics

Extra-adhesive construction

For PP totes, powder coatings and other LSE surfaces.

Compliance path: for GHS/CLP and BS5609 requirements, tell us the exact use case — we'll propose a construction with the certification trail to match.
