DuraLabel Label Printers & Supplies

Which way do you go to get out?  Where is the exit?  During an emergency, when there could be a lot of noise and confusion, can you quickly find your way out of the building?  Is the sign pictured here helpful?

This sign says "Emergency Exit"... in Polish.  Unless you can read Polish it is not very helpful in directing you out of the building.  That's why a new set of safety sign standards has been developed based on using pictures. ISO 7010:2003, Graphical symbols - Safety colors and safety signs - Safety signs used in workplaces and public areas, provides this new standard for safety signs.

The sign to the left is an example of an ISO 7010 compliant sign.  Without using words it clearly shows the way to the nearest emergency exit.

ISO 7010 emergency exit signs are not limited to safety symbols. They may include text.  The Polish text and the safety symbol in the sign to the left can be combined on one sign.  However, ISO 7010 requires the specified safety symbol always be included.  The text is optional.

There are a number of other graphical ways to show people how to get out of a building in an emergency.  The most common is to use floor marking tape.  This is particularly important for marking emergency exits such that they can be found in the dark. Luminescent floor marking is used to mark the pathway to an exit and outline the exit.  Emergency exit signs are also made using luminescent materials.  The result is an illuminated and well-marked path showing the way to the nearest exit.  This is impossible to achieve using anything other than luminescent floor marking tape and signs.

When you need floor marking, the place to turn to is DuraLabel. With DuraLabel's advanced technology and wide selection of supplies, you can get both the right floor marking tape and the right materials for making needed safety signs.

DuraLabel has five types of floor marking tape, each available in multiple colors - except for the luminescent floor marking tape which is only available in luminescent green.  DuraLabel also has luminescent supplies for making emergency exit signs, or other materials such as reflective vinyl, premium vinyl, high tack vinyl (for direct application on difficult to mark surfaces) and various sign making materials for use in harsh environments.  With over 50 types of supplies available, you can always find the right supply for your emergency exit marking requirements.

Call DuraLabel today at 1-888-326-9244.  You'll be glad you did.

DuraLabel Continuous Vinyl

An industrial grade labeling supply is a labeling supply that is stronger, more durable, and available in more sizes and materials than office grade labeling supplies.  DuraLabel is the leading maker of industrial grade labeling supplies.

How can you make a comparison to determine which labeling supply is best?  That can be difficult because you can't really try a supply without buying the label printer that uses that supply.

What about warranties as a basis of comparison?

The most commonly used labeling supply is continuous vinyl. All suppliers of continuous vinyl provide a warranty that states that their vinyl will be free from defects.  But how does that translate into actual performance?  How can you identify a defect in continuous vinyl?  You can see something obvious, such as holes in the vinyl, or missing adhesive, or vinyl that can't be printed on. But that does not tell you how good the vinyl is. Will labels made with this vinyl last?  Are they truly resistant to peeling, cracking, fading, moisture, chemicals and sunlight.  You'll only find that out after you've made labels and applied them - and it may take several years.  And still the supplier will say you didn't install the labels correctly or didn't properly clean the surface.

There is one labeling supply warranty that stands out.

DuraLabel is different. With DuraLabel you get a warranty on the labels you make.  If they fail, you get a replacement roll of vinyl, no matter what the circumstances are. We know you don't want to spend the labor man-hours to replace labels prematurely.  We know you want to get your labeling jobs done and not have to do them over again.  So we know you are not going to be sloppy and install labels in a way you know they will quickly fail.  We also know DuraLabel continuous vinyl is the best, longest lasting vinyl you can get. It is the only Tough Tested vinyl and it must survive DuraLabel's rigorous QA process.  The result is the unique DuraLabel five year warranty of the labels you make.

It's a warranty with no where-as, if, but or exceptions.  No complex legal language.  If a label made with DuraLabel premium continuous vinyl fails within five years of the purchase of the vinyl, DuraLabel will provide a one-time replacement roll of vinyl.  It's that simple.

That's how you can tell DuraLabel is the best.  DuraLabel is the only industrial labeling supplies vendor that provides a warranty like this.  DuraLabel is the only labeling supplier that 100% stands benind the quality of the labels made with their supplies.

Call 1-888-326-9244 today and ask about special DuraLabel kits. You'll be getting the best labeling supplies, the most outstanding printers, and incredible customer service.

There are only a few copies left of this limited edition ANSI safety sign poster.

This safety poster provides an overview of the ANSI Z535 standards that set the design requirements for safety signs.  Using a retro-style that looks like a 60's concert poster, the ANSI Safety Sign Poster provides the information need to ensure safety signs are consistent and in compliance with ANSI.

The poster is titled as an OSHA Safety Sign poster because a top concern is to be in compliance with OSHA.  For safety signs OSHA references the ANSI standard.  This means that OSHA requires compliance with the ANSI safety sign standards.  But whether you call them OSHA or ANSI the standards are the same and they are shown on this fun and educational poster.

This safety sign poster is available free from Graphic Products. Here is a link to a page where you can request you free ANSI Safety Sign poster.
