Healthcare and Laboratory Labels |
|
Applications:
- Diagnostic equipment labeling
- Process tracking of laboratory testing
- Blood bank labels, piggyback and American Blood Commission ID
Overview:
Ideal for equipment assignment, patient tracking, and drug delivery, hospitals and other health care facilities are implementing bar code labeling systems for accuracy and efficiency. To answer this health care industry need, Watson Label Products has developed pre-printed bar code labels that easily wrap around vials and maintain adhesion in extremely cool temperatures.
Features:
WLP has developed a specific polypropylene label construction that has been approved by the Blood industry. This piggyback construction, with or without an overprint varnish, is used extensively in blood bag labeling. Adhesion to glass and the ability of the label to wrap around a small circumference test tube or vial are critical in laboratory applications. We have adhesives suggested for its excellent bond strength to glass, good low temperature properties where vials are frozen, and show good resistance to label flagging. Additionally, the polypropylene facestock gives the label extra flexibility to wrap around curved surfaces.
