Adhesive Testing is Critical

A medical device manufacturer intends to go through clinical testing, and requires a Label Solution adhere on a rough ABS surface of several medical equipment sizes and types while in a hospital setting. The client thought he would require several sizes for the equipment. After measuring, we settled on a standard size to fit the different equipment and picked bright, clearly visible colors, resulting in saving label costs. The label needed to withstand cleaning, handling and constant use. Several visits were made showing materials and testing adhesives until a good match was found.
