The Safety & Efficiency of Industrial Labeling

If you walk onto any factory floor in Michigan’s "Automotive Alley," you’ll see thousands of custom labels. They’re on bins, pipes, and electrical panels. Because they are everywhere, they are often overlooked—until something goes wrong. 

We’ve seen how "cheap" labeling solutions actually cost local businesses thousands in hidden expenses through safety fines and inventory errors. It's time to treat your labeling as a financial strategy, not an afterthought.

The Strategy

• Combating Safety Monotony: Use custom, high-visibility signage to ensure OSHA/MIOSHA compliance.
• Durability in Harsh Environments: Why thermal transfer technology is essential for labels exposed to Michigan humidity and shop-floor chemicals.
• Visual Management (5S/Kaizen): How color-coded labels on tool cribs and racks reduce "search time" and boost floor productivity.

Utilize Custom Brand Labels for Your Business

Did you know that 64% of consumers will buy a product based on packaging alone, according to a study by CBC?

Do your product’s labels leave a positive impression on consumers?

In a customer’s eyes, product labels are just as important as the product itself. Depending on your business and the services or products you provide, you can build your brand and make sure it lives on in the minds after consumers long after they’ve seen it or heard about it.

Custom labels are hugely helpful when you run and market a local business. They can perform functions, go places, and make connections that may not otherwise be possible.  And they’re available on-demand!

Are Your Adhesive Labels FDA-Approved?

Do you have dreams of growing from just baking or cooking for friends and family to selling your products to the public?

We love to help other small businesses get a kick-start on their journey!

When you’re thinking about packaging your goodies, it’s important that your custom labels comply with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations to keep consumers safe. For example, adhesives used in food packaging can sometimes come into contact with foods, so the glue needs to pass strict safety requirements.

The FDA defines a food-safe adhesive as a food-contact substance “...intended for use as a component of material used in manufacturing, packing, transportation, or holding foods […]”

Food packaging suppliers often use functional barriers to prevent substances from becoming food components. For example, some companies like cereal producers use polyethylene bags to protect food from ink and adhesives.
