projector

In today's fast-paced and interconnected world, efficient asset management is essential for businesses across various industries. Organizations rely heavily on their valuable assets, ranging from equipment and machinery to tools and inventory, to drive productivity and maintain a competitive edge. However, keeping track of these assets can often become daunting, leading to misplaced items, unnecessary downtime, and financial losses. This is why many organizations have begun using metal asset tags.

Advancements in technology have paved the way for innovative solutions, and one such tool that has gained significant popularity is metal asset tags. Built to withstand harsh environments and extreme conditions, metal asset tags are typically made from materials such as aluminum, stainless steel or brass, ensuring longevity and reliability.

Why Are Metal Asset Tags So Popular?

At Metalcraft, we've been producing metal asset tags since we opened our doors in 1950. Our best-selling photo anodized tags are top performers year in and year out for good reason.

  1. Durability - Photo anodized metal tags are constructed using a process called anodization, which creates a protective layer on the surface of the metal. This layer makes the tags highly resistant to corrosion, abrasion, chemicals and extreme temperatures.
  2. Legibility - The photo anodization process allows for high-resolution printing of text, numbers, barcodes and even company logos directly onto the metal surface. This printing method ensures excellent legibility and prevents fading or smudging, even after prolonged exposure to sunlight, chemicals, or rough handling. The clear and crisp identification on these tags makes asset tracking and inventory more accurate and efficient.
  3. Customization - Photo anodized metal tags offer a wide range of customization options including different shapes, sizes and thicknesses to suit your specific needs. Additionally, they have the flexibility to incorporate company branding elements such as colors, logos and designs on the tags.
  4. Versatility - Photo anodized metal tags are suitable for a diverse range of assets across industries. Whether it's heavy machinery, tools, electronic equipment or inventory items, these tags can be securely affixed to any surface. This includes metal, plastic, wood or glass. Their versatility makes them an ideal choice for businesses in sectors like manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, construction and more.
  5. Cost-effectiveness - Despite their advanced features, photo anodized metal tags offer cost-effective solutions for asset management. Their long lifespan minimizes the need for frequent replacements, reducing maintenance costs. In addition, the accuracy and efficiency gained from streamlining the asset tracking process helps organizations avoid losses due to misplaced or stolen items, saving both time and money in the long run.
