Custom Labeling Tips

Data Matrix (also known as 2D Matrix) is a new generation of automatic identification technology that encodes text or raw data into black and white modules or “cells” in a rectangular pattern.

Drake Industries has the technology to manufacture these custom Data Matrix labels quickly and to your specifications.

Load large amounts of data into small places with 2D/Data Matrix labels.  This format is increasingly popular for this reason.  Fifty characters can be placed in a symbol that is readable at 2 or 3 mm squared.  Or go big with a Data Matrix that is as large as 3 feet square.

Data Matrix labels can be used with traditional barcode readers or ”smart” phones.  A FREE iPhone/iPad application can scan the images and transmit the data in seconds!  Data collection on a large scale has never been this easy.

It isn’t just a label. There is a lot more that goes into it besides putting a company’s name in print.

Drake Industries can print your logo, barcode or operating instructions on paper but so can everyone else. Our expertise lies in making durable, highly customizable labels and to do that you need more than paper.

Which base material should be chosen? Are there any special environmental conditions to consider? How long does the label need to last?

We’ll show you what happens on our side of the business: problems that we have solved for our clients; the wide array of clients that we serve; and their very interesting products.

We also want you to be able to use our website and blog as a resource when determining which materials to use or which regulatory bugs to print.
