If it's used in military and defence, we can label it

Supporting global defence leaders like the MOD, US Air Force and the French Army, our labels bring unmatched durability and security to the field.

From tactical vehicles to sensitive electronic systems, CILS International provides robust labelling solutions that meet the exacting standards of military applications. Serving organisations such as Chemring and Safran, our labels offer essential information integrity, incorporate tamper-evident features and withstand extreme conditions, ensuring operational readiness and compliance with MIL-STD military standards.

Common types of label

Asset ID and Inventory

Secure your valuable assets with durable permanent labels.

Barcode and Serial Number Traceability

Our barcode and serial number labels are engineered to optimise data capture in the industrial sector.

Branding and Product Identification

At CILS, we understand the critical role that clear branding and durable identification play in the life cycle of a product.

Cable Identification

Navigating the complexities of IT, telecom and product wiring is no small feat. Unidentified cables can turn routine testing and repairs into a time-consuming challenge, particularly when access is limited, as in underground settings.

Calibration

Maintaining regulatory compliance for calibrated equipment is paramount in industries where precision is non-negotiable.

Compliance

In the intricate fabric of industry standards and regulations, compliance labels from CILS International play a pivotal role.

Component ID

The identification of components is crucial for operational efficiency and accuracy during and after production.

Hose and Pipe ID

Secure your valuable assets with durable permanent labels.

PCB Identification and Tracking

Safeguard your production continuity and reduce the risk associated with misidentification or loss of critical component data.

Rating Plate

Our durable rating plate labels are a high-performance alternative to traditional metal rating plates or nameplates.

Sign and Seal

Label failure in the field can lead to rework, non-compliance, and even safety risks.

Tamper-Evident Security

Our tamper-evident security labels and seals ensure your assets are protected against unauthorised tampering or alterations.

Temporary Removable

Our temporary removable labels are a versatile solution for industries requiring flexible, yet durable, labelling for asset tracking and inventory management.

UL

At CILS, we pride ourselves on being UL 969 labelling experts, ready to address your challenges and deliver solutions that meet your product’s UL accreditation needs.

Warning, Safety and Instruction

Our durable warning, safety, and instruction labels are a critical investment for ensuring the safety and compliance of your industrial operations.
