Special care must be taken when applying to any frozen products since the recommended minimum application temperature from adhesive manufacturers is -20°F (-29°C). Once properly applied to an acceptable surface, these labels will remain serviceable from 200ºF (93ºC) to cryogenic temperatures starting at -65°F (–54ºC) (these are the and lower temperature limits per the manufacturer). Testing each individual application is recommended.

Minimum application temp:
-20°F (-29°C)
hand application required

Service temp range:
-65°F to +200°F (-54°C to +93°C)
special handling may be required for use with FFP

Shelf life:
Digi-Trax label material has a standard shelf life of one year from date of shipment from Digi-Trax® when stored at 72°F (22°C) at 50% RH. If exposed to elevated temperatures for an extended period time (more than 30 days), the adhesive properties may be diminished.

Supplies are sold and shipped in “Cases” that have been designed for use with our certified desktop bar code label blood bank printers.

Each “Case” contains a matched quantity of labels and ribbons to eliminate waste.

The synthetic label material has been laboratory tested and matched with special resin ink ribbons to meet rigorous standards required as per the ISBT 128 compliant print specifications. It meets durable print standards set forth in the FDA Guidelines.

The adhesive coating meets FDA; CFR21, Sec. 175.105 requirements for direct and indirect bag applications.

The label and ribbon combination is designed to withstand freezing, water bath, bleach disinfecting and repeated abrasion and will not wrinkle, shred, or smudge. The durable thermal transfer ink image printing will remain legible under these harsh conditions.

All Digi-Trax® thermal transfer cellular therapy labels feature high initial tack and ultimate adhesion. In addition, our adhesives offer good resistance to U.V., plasticizers and water.
