About Industrial Label Printers

Label printing may seem like such
a small component of a business
practice, but it can truly yield BIG
results.
When work environments are labeled
effectively, employees work safer and
processes run smoother. In addition,
OSHA, NFPA, and ANSI compliance
can also be achieved with appropriate
facility labeling.
Printing labels right in-house allows you
to customize them as desired, and is
more affordable and more efficient than
buying them elsewhere.
Be sure to select a printer that
meets your labeling needs. A good
printer should:
be high quality with a good
warranty.
have software that is easy to
understand so you can get up
to speed quickly.
be able to print labels in
dimensions that are useful to
your business.
be easy to connect, operate
and load ribbon and print
supply.
About Floor and Wall Signs

Floor signs should be able to handle
heavy duty industrial traffic, water and
chemical spills, and resist UV damage.
Purchase floor signs from a company that
will guarantee their use in industrial areas.
Wall signs should be made of durable
material. Some sign materials are not
meant to be used outdoors. They may
be prone to fading, and the sign material
itself may not stand up to elements.
Adhesive backing makes installation
easy. Make sure the surface is clean
and free of oil and other liquids that will
compromise the adhesive.
If your signs are likely to be placed
where they will have excessive scuffing
or traffic, use a clear protective film to
extend the life of the sign.
If your facility has unique sign
requirements, look for a vendor that can
produce the custom signs you need.
Creative Safety Supply has a wide
selection of floor and wall signs.
Additionally we can print custom signs
to fit your needs.

About Floor Tape
4
What makes a good floor tape? Lets start from the top:
1. Tape Material. The material used for floor tape should maintain its
functioning power through chemical and grease spills, truck and forklift traffic,
and even pallet wear and tear.
2. Contoured edges. Contoured/beveled edges create a smoother transition
so forklift forks dont snag and pull up the tape.
3. Industrial adhesive. The adhesive should be aggressive enough to cling to
porous and non-porous surfaces.
4. Removable liner. A removable liner makes installation of the floor tape
easier. The installer can cut the tape to the desired length and position them
with the liner in place. This makes it possible to very accurately place the tape
before removing the liner to expose the adhesive.

OSHA Compliance and Safety

Visual communication for OSHA compliance is all about safety for your
employees, visitors and guests. Relevant directional and safety signs is good
business. It also fosters good morale by showing employees that you are
concerned for their safety.
THIS WORKS u
If you are applying a sign or label to a location where it is likely to

be scuffed, cover it with a clear protective layer for added durability.

Personal Protective Equipment

Areas that require personal protective equipment (PPE) are required by OSHA to be
marked appropriately. Confined spaces and areas that have arc flash hazard are
examples of these types of spaces. Additionally, your facility may have areas that
require permits for entry. These areas may also need signage and floor markings to
comply with standards.

punishment and the tape lays out straighter than any other product weve tried. The
