Device for labeling, tracking, and increasing the safety and security of industrial cylindrical containers within the chemical and petroleum industry

摘要

The invention relates to the labeling of industrial cylindrical containers containing acids, alkalis, solvents and other corrosive and non-corrosive chemicals. The label is printed, using a dye sublimation process, onto a plastic sleeve which is placed around the container. A portion of the plastic sleeve is biaxially oriented allowing the label to be affixed to the drum by heat activation. The device may also include a pouch for printed material related to the contents of the container and electronic circuits for tracking the container.
