Who tags with us

Asset tags for IT equipment, labs, and everything bolted down

If it gets audited, loaned out, calibrated, or stolen, it should wear a serialized tag that can’t peel, fade, or wash off. That’s what a laser mark in metal buys you.

IT departments

Laptops, monitors, docks, and switches — one scan pulls the record in your asset system. Deploy day gets faster and audit week stops hurting.

Labs and research

Instruments, fixtures, and sample equipment tagged with serials that survive wipe-downs and solvent splash. Cryo and autoclave-rated variants quoted.

Facilities and plant

Pumps, motors, panels, and HVAC gear tagged for your CMMS. Stainless tags shrug off grease, pressure washing, and decades outdoors.

Schools and districts

Chromebooks, carts, projectors, and shop equipment — property-of tags with district numbering, priced so tagging every device actually pencils out.

Specifications

The specs

Every run is marked on the same fiber laser we use for industrial laser cutting and engraving work — which is why a 1″ QR code scans on the first try and the serial is still legible after years of handling.

Reorder program

Your tag spec stays on file — reorders pick up the sequence

No re-setup, no duplicate serials

After your first run we keep the artwork, layout, material, and serial range on file. When new equipment lands, you send one email — “next 50, same spec” — and the new batch continues numbering exactly where the last one stopped. Your asset register stays clean across years of reorders, and nobody rebuilds a template.

Standing programs for IT, labs, and districts

Quarterly refresh cycles, new-hire hardware batches, and grant-funded equipment waves all fit the program. Lock in 250+ pricing across scheduled batches, mix anodized and stainless in one program, and get every reorder proofed and marked on the same 2–5 day clock.

QR code asset tag FAQs

What can be marked on each asset tag?

A QR code pointing at your asset-management URL or encoding the asset ID, a human-readable serial, your logo, and a department or “Property of” line. Send a prefix and starting number and we generate the sequence, or hand us a CSV exported from your CMMS or inventory system and we mark the exact IDs you already use. Personalization and data setup are free, and you approve a proof of the first tag before the run starts.

Will the QR codes stay scannable in service?

Yes. The codes are fiber-laser marked into the anodized layer of the aluminum — not printed or stickered — so they shrug off solvents, UV, and the abrasion of daily handling that wipes out paper and polyester labels. For autoclaves, washdown areas, chemical exposure, or outdoor equipment, step up to the 304 stainless version and the mark outlives the machine it’s riveted to.

How long does a run of 50 tags take?

Every run is marked to order. You approve a digital proof of the layout and serial scheme, then most runs ship with tracking or are ready for free Raleigh pickup within 2–5 business days. Rolling out tagging before an audit or semester start? Tell us the date and we’ll confirm the timeline before you pay.

Can you handle 250+ tags or a rolling tagging program?

That’s the core of this product. At 250+ tags the price drops to $1.20 per anodized tag, and our reorder program keeps your artwork, layout, and serial sequence on file — your next batch picks up numbering exactly where the last one ended, no duplicate IDs, no re-setup. Send quantities through the quote form and a real person replies with program pricing within one business day.

Tag it once, scan it for a decade

Send your logo, URL scheme, and starting number — or a CSV of asset IDs. We proof tag 0001, laser-mark the run in our Raleigh studio, and keep your spec on file so the next batch is one email away.
