Ensure accuracy and consistency in every step. From print-ready label kits to fully marked labware, every option is built for clarity and durability.

  • Blank labels and ribbons for thermal transfer printing

  • Pre-marked tubes and vials with barcodes or graphics

  • Automated print-and-apply systems for tube labeling

Explore pressure-sensitive labels, custom markings, and automation-ready solutions. Whatever your workflow, we’ll help you label with confidence.

Explore tube labeling strategies.

Pressure-sensitive adhesive tube labels.

These labels use flexible films and durable adhesives engineered for the small diameters and curved surfaces of labware. Most constructions pair a synthetic face stock with an acrylic or rubber-based adhesive, optimized for long-term adhesion. Format and durability options vary to match tube size, storage conditions, and application method.

thermal transfer labels

Blank tube labels are paired with tested thermal transfer ribbons to ensure durability and clear imaging in harsh lab environments. We match label materials and adhesives to specific tube surfaces, chemical exposure, and storage conditions. Some constructions are also compatible with automation for higher-throughput workflows.

pre-printed labels

Pre-printed tube labels arrive application-ready with options for static data, color elements, and fully serialized barcodes. Our sequence management services ensure that no duplicates occur, even across large batches or multiple shipments. This solution supports speed, accuracy, and regulatory traceability in complex operations.

specialty label formats

Specialty formats are designed for tube labeling scenarios where a standard rectangular label won’t suffice. Popular options include wrap-around labels with self-laminating tails, dual tube-and-cap label sets, and bullet-shaped die-cuts for microcentrifuge tubes. These formats offer precise fit, maximum adhesion, and workflow-specific usability.

Tube label printers and applicators.

Print-on-demand solutions.

Print-on-demand labeling gives labs flexibility to generate barcodes and text exactly when and where they’re needed. These systems support both small-batch and high-throughput workflows and reduce inventory of pre-printed labels. Labels are typically printed using thermal transfer technology with lab-tested ribbons and materials. Some systems include automated applicators for faster, more consistent labeling. Whether printing manually or integrating into a larger workflow, these solutions scale with your growth.

  • Reliable barcode printing on small diameter labels

  • Print as needed, avoid excess label waste

  • Compatible with lab-tested label materials and ribbons

  • Compact design for bench and tabletop organization

Printing

Thermal transfer printing produces durable images that resist smudging, solvents, and extreme temperatures. When paired with the right ribbon and label, it ensures long-term traceability. These systems are ideal for variable data and small-format barcodes.

automation

Automated label applicators reduce manual handling and increase consistency across batches. Many models support capped or uncapped tubes and can be integrated with robotic systems. Automation is ideal for labs scaling up or standardizing workflows.

zebra zd printer

These compact desktop printers are known for their consistency and high-resolution output on small-format labels. They’re ideal for labs that need reliable barcode printing without overcomplicating setup or printer maintenance. 

axon 1 tube labeler

The Axon 1 uses a vertical orientation that supports capped and uncapped tubes in a space-saving design. It’s optimized for robotic pick-and-place automation and fits seamlessly into advanced lab workflows. Ideal for labeling before or after filling.

axon 2 tube labeler

The Axon 2 offers semi-automated print and apply labeling in a horizontal format. It’s easy to operate and delivers fast, consistent label placement for each tube. A great fit for labs looking to automate without fully overhauling their workflow.

not sure how to start?

Whether you’re printing labels in-house, considering automation, or exploring pre-marked tubes, we’ll help you sort through the options. Just answer a few quick questions and we’ll recommend the best path for your workflow.

Pre-marked tubes and vials.

Superior durability and performance.

Pre-marked tubes and vials arrive labeled or imaged to your exact specifications, eliminating manual labeling and reducing errors. Each tube is marked using professional techniques for clarity, placement, and long-term performance. Ideal for high-throughput labs or long-term sample storage, these solutions streamline workflows from the start.

  • Arrives labeled, serialized, and fully organized

  • Eliminates manual handling and label application

  • Suitable for automation and robotic systems

  • Available with labels or direct imaging options

precision marking

Barcodes, human-readable data, and graphics are laid out with precision to ensure scan accuracy and rack compatibility. Labels are thin and flexible to prevent interference with tube handling or storage equipment. Placement is tightly controlled for consistency across batches and formats.

customization

From full-color logos to functional grad lines, pre-marked tubes can be tailored to your workflow and branding. Color-coded symbols and tube-cap sets improve organization and sample tracking. We support a range of marking types, including lab-specific formats and reference indicators.

superior durability

Pre-marked tubes are built for the demands of long-term storage, repeated handling, and extreme conditions. Some formats like ceramic-baked labels offer durability that matches or exceeds the lifespan of the tube itself. Ideal for biobanks, reference labs, and critical research storage.
