The CIL 91000 self-laminating labels from Computer Imprintable Label Systems (CILS), based in Worthing, West Sussex, UK will survive cryogenic storage.
The company says the labels feature a clear wrap-around tail to protect computer-printed variable data, providing clear and reliable identification.
The labels for vials and tubes are waterproof and can withstand multiple freeze-thaw cycles, water-baths, solvents, abrasion and long-term storage in liquid nitrogen and ultra-low temperature freezers - even down to -196°C without detaching, cracking or fading.
The labels can be printed 'in-lab' using a PC and laser or thermal transfer printer and supplied pre-printed or plain in any size, shape and colour.
