Tags and labels for concrete components

The labelling of work pieces made of concrete requires labels with, first and foremost, excellent initial adhesion, as the surface to which they are adhered is highly uneven and porous, and often dusty. Another important feature of this type of label is its resistance to both mechanical damage and extremely variable weather conditions. Concrete circles, kerbs, paving stones, etc. are most often stored outside, and this involves exposure to sunlight, rain and fluctuating temperatures all year round.

Once we know which application we are dealing with, we can choose both the type of material the label should be made of and the type of adhesive and ribbon for overprinting. The ideal combination of these three elements is key to ensuring that the labels fulfil their purpose, adhere perfectly to the surface and are easy to read whatever the conditions. After all, their primary function is to convey information.

While each customer has specific needs, a few of the main types of labels used in the construction industry directly related to the production of concrete elements can be listed here. Each meets the needs arising at different stages of production, transport and storage.

When it comes to this industry, we can distinguish between:

  • Paper or specialised plastic labels – most commonly used with a strong adhesive on production lines and at the packaging stage.
  • Foil labels – used for labelling pallets and individual products in building depots.
  • Glueless tags – most commonly used for marking concrete elements in logistics and warehouse processes.
