Take 1 minute to learn something new about UL and CSA labels.
(Heads up: This info can make your life better.)
Medical research indicates we can “exercise” our brain by learning something new every day. Here’s something about UL and CSA labels that you probably didn’t know!
First, let’s talk about your product. Is it electrical or mechanical? Does it require plumbing or gas? If so, you probably know the Underwriters Laboratories must test and inspect US products to ensure safety in living and work environments. In Canada, this task falls to CSA International.
At NFI, we provide UL and CSA labels printed on UL 969 recognized constructions and CSA Certified Constructions. See NFI’s review applicable UL label constructions for the full UL label product line.
To confirm the right construction before you commit, Request Relevant Samples and evaluate them against your own compliance and durability requirements.
What’s more, you may be surprised to learn that not every printing company can create UL and CSA labels. For example, for UL labels, the printer must be registered with the UL Authorized Label Suppliers Program.
If you’re a manager, engineer or purchasing agent in charge of selecting a vendor – then teaming with that vendor to design, order, and apply UL or CSA labels – you want to get it right the first time. A quality label from a service-minded company like NFI means no rework and no headache.
For instance, manufacturers of medical equipment and technology require UL and CSA labels for the products they supply to hospitals, operating rooms, clinics, and laboratories. As with other industries, labels applied to medical equipment often must endure harsh environmental conditions, withstand maintenance and cleaning, and tolerate exposure to chemical solutions. Plus, labels must meet federal regulations and safety requirements. That’s a lot to ask of a “simple” label!
