Industries We Support
OEMs can get a contract to either manufacture the entire product or part of the product, and they can choose to manufacture or subcontract part or all of it. They often use specialized equipment to produce products that require a particular type of environment. Due to these conditions, many OEMs use industrial tapes and labels to help create and categorize specialized products fit for certain industrial conditions.
During manufacturing, shipping, and storage, manufactured parts or products are prone to damage or disorganization, which is why OEMs turn to NADCO for protective industrial tapes and high-quality labels. Read on to find out more about the benefits and applications of industrial tapes as well as the products NADCO provides to the OEM market.
What Are the Benefits and Applications Of NADCO’s Tapes for OEMs?
These are the most common examples of tapes used in the manufacturing industry:
- Performance masking tape: Performance masking tapes are manufactured to adhere to a variety of industrial surfaces, such as metal, plastics, rubber, and fiberglass. They can withstand high-temperature cure cycles, UV exposure, water, and solvents. Automotive, marine, and transportation environments that rely on industrial coatings use performance masking tapes to achieve smooth, clean lines.
- Duct tape: Duct tape has one side made of polyethylene resin and the other made of a rubber-based adhesive layer. It is suitable for quick repairs and for sticking temporary poly sheeting to rough surfaces like brick.
- Masking tape: Masking tapes are sticky adhesive tapes used to cover surfaces when painting, labeling items, or attaching masking papers. Performance-quality masking tapes are the best option for intense industrial coating applications because they can withstand high temperatures, UV exposure, and moisture.
- Electrical tape: Electrical tapes are pressure-sensitive tapes that provide tight seals and protect electrical wires against corrosion. They can be color-coded for quick identification.
Labels are also a key part of any manufacturing process, throughout the entire supply chain. Not only must product labels provide textual or visual information about use or risks, but they must also be made of materials and inks durable enough to withstand extreme temperatures, moisture, chemicals, or other environmental conditions.
NADCO produces labels from durable materials, such as vinyl, paper, foil, and foam. We primarily produce pressure-sensitive, tamper-evident, and food and beverage labels, but we can customize a specialized label solution to meet your needs. We custom-print industrial labels such as:
- Identification labels: Identification labels help manufacturers identify individual components as well as finished production orders. These labels give products a unique, traceable digital identity throughout the supply chain, enhancing efficiency, accuracy, and customer satisfaction.
- Assembly instruction labels: Assembly instructions are crucial to informing end users how to assemble your product. These labels require high-quality printing technologies to produce accurate images and legible, easy-to-follow information.
- Finished product labels: These labels identify finished products so that they can move on to the next stage of the supply chain, whether it’s distribution to customers or transport to warehouses.
- Shipping/carton labels: Shipping labels identify and describe the contents of a package, containing information like product names, tracking numbers, weight, and addresses. Handlers need this information to know how to handle the carton, as it may be heavy or contain fragile items.
- Product serial numbers and other labels printed with variable data: With product serial numbers, manufacturers can quickly identify defective parts in case of customer complaints or product recalls. With variable data printing, manufacturers can group labels for multiple products into one larger order, lowering their per-label cost and benefiting from considerable cost savings.
