Our Custom Labels Make Things Easy…
…not to mention safer, more efficient, and more profitable. To many people, a “label” is a tag on a T-shirt or a sticker on a box in the attic. But to today’s business owner, labels can mean a great many critical things. At the very least, they are a fundamental component of packing and shipping operations for countless businesses. But within many industries, they play vital and integral roles that directly impact the success and growth of the business.
Take warehousing, where labels are the key to inventory control and distribution. Labels on totes, pallets, drums and other compartmentalized systems tell picking and sortation systems where items are to be stored and where they can be retrieved efficiently. In logistics, labels help streamline freight and shipping operations; the transit of goods is handled faster and more accurately from manufacture or acquisition through final delivery.
Labels are extremely vital in the food industry,as well. The Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) calls for tracking food products from source to retail shelves, and PTI labels help make this accountability possible, not only for shipments and case lots, but down to individual items. In agriculture, RFID and barcode technologies allow for tracking of ranch and farm products from the time they enter processing through the time they are available for consumer purchase.
Perhaps no industry relies more on accurate and advanced labeling technologies than healthcare. Test tubes, vials, blood and drug test samples, slides used for diagnostic purposes and laboratory analysis – the list of process applications in which labels are critical to the maintenance of health and safety standards is nearly endless. Even the patients themselves are “labeled”. The medical field needs all these labels supplied in quantity with flawless accuracy.
At Superior Business Solutions, our expertise includes custom labels from all the leading label manufacturers, including both traditional styles and those used in advanced labeling technologies including barcode, RFID, digital, laser, thermal scanning and more.
