Self-Adhesive Labels: The Innovation That Keeps Facilities Running Smoothly
You’ve probably never heard of Stan Avery but if you work in facilities management, construction, or MRO, you benefit from his invention every day. Back in 1939, Avery built the world’s first self-adhesive label machine using a washing machine motor, sewing machine parts, and a saber saw. That low-tech prototype sparked a high-impact revolution.
Today, self-adhesive labels are everywhere — on tools, equipment, assets, safety signage, and maintenance records. They’re essential for clear communication, quick identification, and efficient operations across every site.
Why Self Adhesive Labels Matter in FM and MRO
Self adhesive labels stick securely to surfaces, resist tough environments, and are easy to apply no need for extra fixings or hardware. Whether you’re marking electrical panels, tagging plant equipment, or logging inspections, they keep your workplace safe, organised, and compliant.
We print custom self adhesive labels for:
-
Asset tracking (barcodes, QR codes, serial numbers)
-
Maintenance logs (next service due, date of inspection)
-
Warning and hazard notices
-
Branded equipment and tool identification
