Up to now barcode labels have been used by retailers to highlight ownership and make it extra difficult for a thief to pass off a product as their own. They can be easily used within the justice system as proof of ownership. The beauty of this new barcode is it can be used many times on one product.<\/p>\n

For example,\u00a0Some will come in packs of 4 or 5 identical parts. \u00a0Each label can also have the same serial number but with a different letter suffix.\u00a0 Some multi-part tags also have a main label and a mini-label which is the perfect size for file folders. \u00a0A label can be placed on a vial and a matching mini-label with the same bar code number can be placed on a paper form or file folder for the office records.\u00a0The labels can have security cuts to show if the labels have been tampered with.\u00a0 Some labels can void the warranty when the seal is broken. There are also destructible labels that break into tiny pieces when they are removed, preventing vandals from removing the labels.<\/p>\n

The other option is to have 4-in-1 Asset Tags that have a main label with custom text, bar code and number, in addition to 3 mini-labels that have just the number. This is useful for recording one item in multiple departments by placing the main tag on the item and the other tags in the paper form in the different departments.\u00a0 Alternatively, different parts of the tag can be placed in different parts of the equipment.\u00a0 The multi-part labels can also be used to inventory various small items, such as books in a library.<\/p>\n
