All foam is cut in the USA.
Tested for Extreme Conditions – Heat, water, oil, UV, abrasion & more
Our durable labels for equipment are built to last on tough surfaces like metal, stainless steel, and powder-coated materials. If your tools face extreme temperatures or chemicals, these labels provide reliable identification you can count on.
Use our industrial labels to track parts, organize inventory, brand machinery, or meet compliance needs.

Industrial Labels CIS Makes
CIS makes industrial labels and handles industrial labeling programs for manufacturers, distributors and warehouses. Common uses include:
- Equipment and machinery labels for tools, machines and manufacturing environments.
- Asset tags, including anodized aluminum tags for tools and equipment.
- GHS chemical labels for drums and containers.
- Warehouse rack and barcode labels, including retro-reflective labels for upper levels. See warehouse labeling.
- Freezer and cold storage rack labels that apply as low as -10F and hold to -65F.
- RFID labels, stock or fully custom printed.
- UL and cUL labels, tags and pipe markers.
Materials and Adhesives
Facestocks include paper, films, foils and synthetic materials such as polyester, with laminates and varnishes available in line. Our labels for equipment are built to last on tough surfaces like metal, stainless steel and powder-coated materials, with adhesives matched to the surface and to heat, water, oil, UV and abrasion exposure.
Printing Methods
We print industrial labels with flexographic, digital and thermal transfer processes. Flexo is the low cost-per-label choice on long runs. Digital fits short runs, versioning and variable data with no plate charge. Thermal transfer covers durable in-plant and on-demand printing, supported by our barcoding equipment. See CIS label printing capabilities.

Watch: Our Flexo, Digital, and Thermal Transfer Printing
A look at how CIS prints labels across flexographic, digital, and thermal transfer processes, and how we pick the right method for your run length, artwork, and substrate.
- Flexographic printing uses flexible relief plates and fast-drying inks, which makes it the low cost-per-label choice on long runs.
- Digital printing is the better fit for short runs, versioning, variable data, and fast proofs with no plate charge.
- Thermal transfer covers durable in-plant and on-demand printing where labels are produced as they are needed.
- Substrates include paper, films, foils, and synthetic facestocks, with laminates and varnishes available in line.
- Spot color matching holds brand colors consistent across reorders.
Watch: How We Build RFID Labels
How CIS builds RAIN RFID (UHF Class 1 Gen 2) labels and tags, from inlay selection through encoding and verification, for manufacturing, distribution, retail, and asset tracking.
- RFID inlays are embedded between the facestock and liner, so the label prints and applies like any other pressure-sensitive label.
- Inlay choice depends on read range, substrate (metal, liquid, cardboard), and the environment the tag lives in.
- RAIN RFID needs no line of sight, reads at distance, and reads many tags at once.
- CIS checks inlay compatibility against your printer/encoder and your customer specification before production.
- Available as stock or fully custom printed RFID labels.
