Asset Tags for IT and Data Centers
Serialized, scannable tags for racks, servers, laptops, and peripherals.
An IT asset moves fast. Laptops get reissued, racks get re-cabled, servers get decommissioned, and the asset database has to keep up. These scenarios could turn into a disaster if the barcode or QR code tags start falling off. Stronger-tier vinyl tags work well on some laptops, monitors, and rack equipment because they survive wiping and normal handling. Some laptops, like Chromebooks, have a difficult surface so our Strongest tier tags would be the best choice. Also, if the theft of an asset is a possibility, the Strongest tier tag should be your only choice.
Best-practice install pattern
- 01Place the tag on the front bezel or top surface where it scans without moving the device.
- 02Use a Code 128 barcode or a QR code so scanning into your app is easy.
- 03For data-center racks, attach to the rail post on the cold-aisle side so audits don't require opening the cabinet.
- 04Pair every laptop tag with a tamper-evident chassis seal to track unauthorized teardowns.
FAQ for it + data centers
Will the adhesive damage a laptop chassis?
The adhesive on the Stronger tier tags can be removed from hard surfaces without permanently leaving residue. The Strongest tier tags will be very difficult to impossible to remove and will result in some substrate destruction, and these tags are designed for permanent adhesion especially to difficult substrates.
What size is best for a server tag?
1"x2" is the standard for server rack labels because it fits the available bezel space and resolves a 13-mil 1D barcode at scanner-friendly density. For 1U appliances, 0.75"x1.5" works.
Stop replacing labels. Start trusting them.
