Types of Energy Safety Tags

Warning Labels & Tags

Warning tags are prevalent throughout energy facilities. Warning signs are affixed throughout refineries to provide critical information to workers.

Warning labels and signage is especially important in these facilities which house hazardous as well as non-hazardous materials.

It may seem like a basic safety solution. However, a simple warning placard on a piece of machinery can make the difference between proper procedures and the potential for an accident.

Inspection Tags

Inspections are one of the main ways energy organizations keep their equipment, tools, and other storage up to code. Periodic inspections ensure that these assets are not damaged, leaking, or prone to failure.

Some examples of items commonly marked with inspection tags include:

• Machinery
• Fire Extinguishers
• Equipment
• Valves
• And More

Inspectors rely on custom identification labels and markers to be labeled to the equipment or inventory they are inspecting.

Marking Processes

Photo Anodization

For an all-around marking process, photo anodization is a very versatile option. This marking is embedded between layers of tough aluminum, providing a long-lasting solution.

Photo anodization provides 20+ year outdoor durability. Exposure to the elements is not a concern. In addition, the anodized aluminum material is corrosive resistant.

This process is fully customizable, from high quality barcodes to custom designs. Photo anodized tags can feature symbols to indicate the type of hazard.

In addition to the custom design, the aluminum material can be colored, providing another method for visibly indicating the type of substance (i.e. red placard for a flammable chemical).

Digital Printing

Outside of metal substrates, polyester and vinyl-based labels are used for safety marking as well. These materials are marked with digitally printed ink, allowing for a wide range of design options.

By directly printing on the material, these decals can be produced with bright, stand-out designs. This is a great benefit as their purpose is to draw attention and be noticed. Vivid colors, barcodes, and logos can all be added to these labels.

While the designs might be more vivid, digitally printed inks are not the most durable. Surface level printing is susceptible to wear.

Labels that peel, crack, and fade are more than a nuisance — in energy environments, they’re a safety risk. Use metal nameplates for permanent solutions to asset tracking, equipment labeling, and safety warnings.
