asset-label


This article is designed to help people understand asset label marking. We will start by defining assets and divide them into two categories;

1) Non-fixed Assets
2) Fixed Assets

1) Non-fixed Assets would comprise any item that is not physically attached or part of a building. For example this would include assets such as furniture and equipment that you would find in office, school and home environments such as PC s, Laptops, IT Equipment, Cameras, Telephones, Printers, Desks, Oscilloscopes, etc.

2) Fixed asset labels would comprise the opposite meaning that we are talking about buildings, signs and machinery that is attached to buildings and any other items that might be classed under this heading. These fixed asset labels are also called infrastructure items as they are part of the infrastructure.

Asset Labels, Asset Tags, Property asset labels or Identification asset labels are used to uniquely visually identify these non-fixed and fixed assets by means of attaching a unique identifier to each asset . This may be in the form of a label or etching.

Depending upon how permanent you wanted the asset label marking to be, would help you decide the type of material that your asset label would need to be constructed from. The different materials of the asset labels would be suited to different surfaces.
