Clarion Nameplates & Data Plates
Custom or Off-The-Shelf
Custom Nameplate Label Example
Clarion can customize data plates to your exact specifications. The entire layout
(as well as all field names) can be modified as you require.
We can also produce your data plates on a wide variety of materials including:
- In-stock or customized aluminum plates with blank fields that allow you to
stamp in data.
- Polyester labels that have a write-able overlaminate for you
to fill in.
- Polyester labels with polyester or scratch-resistant Lexan® (polycarbonate)
laminate with your data filled in using our digital production
capabilities and information you supply to us in Excel spreadsheets
Serialization Capabilities
Clarion can also supply all of your custom serialized safety label needs! We are
one of the few places in the world that is able to produce high quality individualized
custom-serialized overlaminated die-cut labels including data plate labels and individualized
arc flash labels (see our arc flash section for more information on customized arc
flash label templates). Our digital production presses allow you to change the data
in any field on every label. The end result is that each individual label is capable
of containing different information!
In-Stock Aluminum Data Plates
Clarion stocks this generic data plate in .020 aluminum with white background except
where the data is to be stamped on the plate. The areas for stamping are left in
natural aluminum.
Standard Data Plate:
No. DP-20 = 3.6" x 3"
No. DP-21 = 2.25" x 2.7"
Order Serialized Labels in Four Easy Steps
- Tell Clarion what you want your label to look like (we have templates available).
- Tell Clarion which data fields are fixed (will not change) and the information
that goes into each field.
- Tell Clarion which fields are to have variable data (data that will change for
each label) and how you will supply Clarion with this information.
- Tell Clarion how many labels you require and your choice of materials:
- 3M polyester base material with clear polyester overlaminate (Clarion's premium
quality standard material).
- 3M polyester base material with clear velvet textured Lexan® polycarbonate
overlaminate (for improved scratch resistance).
- 3M polyester base material with clear 3M weatherable overlaminate (for improved
outdoor durability).
Data Matrix Barcodes
Data Matrix barcodes use a pattern of unique black and white squares and a perimeter
pattern to encode what can be tremendous amounts of data. With the capacity of holding
over 800 characters of information, these codes function as a unique identifier
and are now required for most military contracts. What is particularly interesting
about this form of symbolic coding is that even if a good portion of the label is
destroyed, a large amount of data can still be read. Use of these code labels can
give each of your individual parts or products a specific, unique identifier. Clarion
now offers data matrix barcodes as part of our line of serialized signs and labels
and our full digital capability means that every identification code can be different.
