Autoclave labels are thermoplastic labels that resist the extreme heat and pressure of autoclaving, intended for materials that will undergo the sterilization process.
These autoclave-resistant labels are ideal for labeling metal, glass, and plastic surfaces, and will withstand sterilization in steam autoclaves, dry heat ovens, gamma irradiators, and ethylene oxide gas chambers.
They have a working temperature range of -60°C/-76°F to +150°C/+302°F, resisting up to 30 psi of pressure as well as radiation levels as high as 50 KGy.
These labels are compatible with several types of printing methods:
- Thermal-transfer
- Inkjet
- Laser
Available in a range of formats, including permanent or removable, as well as blackout, piggyback, and wrap-around.
