Get The Best - In Every Respect

There's a reason why DuraLabel printers, such as the DuraLabel PRO (DLP), have become recognized as THE BEST label and sign printers you can get. Actually there are a number of reasons. I'll let DuraLabel customers tell you:

It's the great customer service: "I work with so many vendors. Sometimes, it's like pulling teeth to get them to respond, even to just an email where I am placing an order. (revenue for their company!) You and your group have been so responsive and quite prompt... path of least resistance...makes my work day pleasant so I can move on to the next task.
Keep up the great work! :) " - Thank you, Marianne

Easy to use: "Just wanted to say the DLP is great!! Easy interface and straightforward. Couldn't be happier." Cheers, Jeff - Biology Department, Canadian University

Versatile, and able to handle many types of labeling and sign making jobs: "Proper signs make it easier for every one to learn how the equipment is run and figure out what is going on. Several other departments have 'borrowed' the label maker for things that they needed labeled. The warehouse was recently expanded and made about a hundred labels for the shelves in 10 minutes." Natalie - Engineer

Duralabel printers make your job easier: "I just wanted to write you and let you know how pleased I am with the new DL-9000 sign maker. I set it up today and wow, what a difference! It’s awesome! Thank you so much for suggesting it. I think I might have the Underground interested in one also. They are having quite a time with their PowerMark." Peggy - Major Mining Company

And there are many other reasons. Why not call 1-888-326-9244 today and find out how a DuraLabel printer can make your job easier.

OSHA Safety Signs

This blog is primarily about making safety labels, with a focus on labeling that is required by OSHA, although we also cover a range of other somewhat related topics. We have another blog that is loosely targeted at OSHA Safety Signs. It's the place to visit for information about DuraLabel sign printers and sign making supplies.

What's the difference between a sign and a label?

The first thing that comes to mind is the size. Signs are larger and labels are smaller. But, although in general that is typically true, that's not the difference.

The difference is in how it is used. Let's take a 7" x 10.5" arc flash _____ (shown to the right). For now I'll leave it blank what we'll call this.

Here is the definition:

When used to supply information about the object to which it has been applied, then it is called a label.

When supplying information about something other than what it is applied on, then it is a sign.

For example, when applied to a device that presents an arc flash hazard, then the above is called a label, even though it is 7" x 10-1/2" in size. It is a BIG label, but it still is a label.

If it was applied to a door, warning about arc flash hazards within a room, then it would be called a sign, even though it is the same 7" x 10-1/2" size.

However, whether you call it a sign or label is not critically important. What is important is that it deliver the needed information... and that it do that reliability, clearly and durably. To accomplish that you need a DuraLabel printer, the industrial label and sign printers that get the job done... and get it done right.
