So many labels to choose from ... but
which one do I choose?

You already know that Metalcraft can provide a variety
of substrates, adhesives, and coatings that can be combined to suit just about
any environment. But how do you know which options to choose for which environment?
Don’t fret! Metalcraft offers a variety of ways to assist you in selecting the
right product for your needs.
Product Selector Guide
This unique and useful tool is located on Metalcraft’s
website. Simply go to www.idplate.com, and
click on the Product Selector Guide button on the right hand side of the main
page. This brings you to a sign-in page, and then to an easy-to-use form. Continue
by filling in the appropriate responses to the questions on the form as they
relate to the environment the label will be used in. After you fill in the form,
click Submit and product recommendations are shown instantly based on the information
you provided!
Product Specification Sheets
Also located on Metalcraft’s website are specification
sheets for most of their products. The specification sheets can be found on the
corresponding product webpage and are in .pdf format for easy download. The sheets
contain product specs as well as environmental ratings. For our more extreme
environment products, such as Metal Bar Code Nameplates and Ceramic on Stainless
Nameplates, even more detailed test result sheets are available. Call 920-582-0328
for copies of these.
Environment Icons
Metalcraft’s catalog offers you off-line help in selecting
the right product. Shown next to each product in the catalog is an environment
icon which appears as a man with varying levels of attire based on the environment
rating: mild, moderate, or extreme. Mr. Mild is in office attire, indicating
mild office conditions. Mr. Moderate is sporting a hard hat to alert you
that the product can withstand a bit more than mild. Mr. Extreme is decked
out in full armor, because the products he is near are ready for the harshest
conditions! For even more detailed descriptions on what the icons mean,
take a look in the middle of the catalog under Environment Icons.
Your Metalcraft Rep!
Of course, you can always give SalesTeam Professional
Services, Inc. (or your area’s
assigned rep) a call, as well, and we will be more than happy to go over
your requirements with you (after all, we live for this stuff!). So don’t let
Metalcraft’s amazing selection leave you feeling overwhelmed. Assistance with
product selection is just a click, page, or phone call away!
