Need a label to resist autoclave and sterilization?

In the world of medical research, surgery and medical device production, labels must endure the rigorous conditions of autoclaves and sterilization processes.

Whether identifying if an item has been autoclaved, or maintaining compliance with health and safety standards, our durable labels resist high-pressure steam and heat, as well as the disintegration or fading of critical information.

Where does this happen often?

Animal Health Laboratories

Labels must withstand the sterilization of equipment and containers, as these environments prioritize contamination prevention, especially in the handling of blood samples, tissue cultures, and biomedical wastes.

Biotech Research Laboratories

The loss of label information on vials containing high-value genetic material or cultures, which are regularly sterilized to maintain integrity, can lead to setbacks in ground-breaking research.

Forensic Laboratories

Labels on containers and tools used for handling and analyzing forensic evidence that require sterilization to avoid contamination.

Hospital Clinics and Medical Laboratories

Labels must withstand the sterilization of equipment and containers, as these environments prioritize contamination prevention, especially in the handling of blood samples, tissue cultures and biomedical wastes.

Museums

Historical preservation can require autoclaving of artefacts to prevent decay. Labels used in these settings must endure without damaging the valuable information they bear.

Pharmaceutical R&D

In the development phase of new drugs, samples are frequently autoclaved for sterility testing, necessitating labels that can survive without loss of legibility or adhesion.

Secure your data in any condition

Autoclave and sterilization-resistant labels are typically affixed to a variety of containers and equipment – from cryo vials and microtubes in storage at sub-zero temperatures to vessels and racks exposed to high-heat sterilization processes.

Our durable labels not only withstand the physical conditions of an autoclave but also remain legible, so vital information such as sample origin, date of collection, and storage instructions are always accessible.
