Cryogenic Label Offers Performance and Economy

Print specialists inotec have announced the introduction of a new label material, designed specifically for cryogenic labelling applications. The new label is suitable for direct immersion into liquid nitrogen at -196 degrees Celsius and offers a cohesive bond high enough to withstand thermal shock, eliminating the problem of de-lamination.

As the new label does not require to be wrapped onto itself it is possible to reduce the material size and, importantly cost!

The labels, tested at Southampton University's specialist cryogenic department, deliver benefits for clinical laboratory, biomedical research, and other scientific environments by affording reliable and economic label identification of plastic and glass vessels that undergo long-term cryogenic storage in liquid nitrogen or deep-freezing.

Available pre-printed or blank for desktop laser printing or thermal transfer printing with matched high performance ribbons the material offers durability of print ensuring data is clearly printed even when high definition barcodes or 2D codes are used.
