Track your assets for improved security, easier fixed asset accounting, and simpler maintenance with customised, specialist asset tags

To run large-scale operations accurately and efficiently, specialised tracking of your assets is essential to success. Any reliable asset tracking system needs to be unique to your business, which can make selecting the ideal solution complex. At GSM Barcoding, we simplify this process, using our vast experience to simplify and outline all the solutions available to you.

From simple paper barcode labels to customised tamper-proof security tags and real-time location tracking tags, we will have the perfect solution. Our experts will help you identify your needs and guide you in making the right choices.

Our Asset Tagging Solutions

Custom Asset Tags

Offering an easy-to-implement and affordable solution, custom asset tags enable you to identify and track your assets. We offer various plain and pre-printed asset labels, suitable for a range of industry applications. Our asset tags can include features such as sequential numbers, barcodes, QR codes, & branded logo designs.

Available in a selection of colours, sizes, and materials, we have solutions ranging from budget-friendly paper labels to more durable vinyl asset tags. Additionally, if you would prefer to design your own labels in-house, we can provide Bartender label design software that will allow you to design labels on demand, when coupled with a barcode label printer.

Durable Asset Tags

If your assets are applied in challenging environments, like manufacturing plants or outdoor settings, choosing a durable asset tag or label is essential. We can produce labels and tags from materials that are designed to withstand high temperatures, sunlight, abrasion, solvents, and much more.

For the highest level of resistance against abrasion and chemical exposure, polycarbonate labels are ideal, laminated for heavy-duty protection; they can endure the toughest conditions. Alternatively, anodised aluminium tags feature information etched onto them and are a high-quality, long-lasting solution for both indoor and outdoor use.

High-Security Tags

There are many innovative tagging options available, including non-removable tags, destructible labels, and tamper-evident tags. If your organisation has valuable assets that are at an elevated risk of theft, using high-security asset tags can prevent loss and future unauthorised use.

Non-removable asset tags are selected for maximum security, whereas destructible vinyl asset labels and tamper-evident labels leave a void mark if removed. All three are excellent solutions for those wishing to deter theft and discourage others from transferring the tags to other assets.

RFID & RTL Tags

RFID and real-time location systems (RTLS) tags provide that extra step to safeguard and monitor critical assets using the latest features and designs. RFID for asset tracking provides radio reading of tags, improving monitoring of tagged items’ access and exit via portals and gates.

RTLS makes asset tracking in real-time a reliable option with beacons and tags that communicate with mobile devices and track over wider ranges. This type of asset tracking is critical for monitoring personnel or high-value assets. Both solutions deliver more precise data tracking and enhanced security.

Asset Tag Data Encoding

At GSM Barcoding, we specialise in supplying encoded labels & tags for various symbologies and RF data. Our capabilities include numeric codes like EAN, Alphanumeric codes such as Code39 used in automotive and defence industries, and 2D barcodes like DataMatrix for enhanced data capacity and readability, plus RFID, BTL, and transponder tags.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are assets in a business?

Generally, assets are resources employed by the business to achieve its objectives.  It can be current assets, such as materials or consumables or fixed assets such as equipment, machinery and IT hardware.   Whereas current assets are used up in the operational processes, fixed assets tend not to be used and are therefore tracked on asset registers and used within the business from one period to another and depreciation is applied to the asset over time.    Tracking assets is very important for business accounting and for auditing in financial statements.

What’s the benefit of asset tracking?

Asset tracking improves accountability and resource optimisation through tracking the location, usage, staff allocation and depreciation of assets.  Asset tracking is ultimately about accountability and control, a way of keeping an eye on assets within your business but also assets that maybe loaned or in the field, such as utility meters.    Asset tracking can also help with planned preventative maintenance, as assets that require tracking and maintaining can have data records supplemented to their unique identification.   This helps with facility and equipment management.

What is the best type of asset tracking tags?

There is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to choosing asset tags.  The tag that best fits the application, environment, budget and level of accuracy and dependability is key.  There are asset tags, such as paper labels, that are low-cost and ideally suited for low-value internal assets that are not at high risk of tampering.   Then you can have indestructible asset labels and tags that provide constant signalling of their location, such as Bluetooth tags.   It all depends on the user’s requirements.

Can I design & print asset tags in-house?

Yes, you can print RFID and paper label asset tags in-house by using a combination of Bartender label software, a barcode label printer, and labels. Bartender allows you to design your labels with barcodes, QR codes, or RFID technology and incorporate design elements such as logos or sequential numbers. Printing your asset labels in-house offers flexibility, but if you require high-quality asset tags, such as vinyl or specialised asset tags, you should consider having them professionally printed.
