Boost operational efficiency with cryogenic labels

Cryogenic conditions are challenging, but that doesn’t mean you have to settle for a one-trick-pony of a label. CleanMark’s custom cryogenic labels are tough, and they multi-task for operational efficiency.

Boost quality and customer satisfaction

CleanMark’s custom cryogenic labels simplify inspections and quality verification. They’re compatible with both on-site printing and handwriting, providing flexible use options. And, they’re available in sterile or cleanroom-ready options for sensitive environments.

Avoid regulatory fines

Cryogenic storage often involves complex regulatory demands. Our custom labels remain adhered and legible in cryogenic temperatures, allowing you to reliably prove compliance.

Streamline your supply chain

Custom cryogenic labels with barcodes, QR codes, and batch details enable real-time tracking even in ultra-low temperatures, enhancing inventory accuracy, reducing loss, and ensuring efficient operations.

The future of cryogenic labels

CleanMark has been a leading innovator in labels for more than 40 years. Our cryogenic labels push the boundaries of adhesive development, laminate application, and synthetic construction.

Extreme cold durability

CleanMark’s cryogenic-specific adhesives bond to a variety of surfaces and remain intact and flexible through moisture and freezing temperatures down to -196 °C, rapid temperature shifts, and thaw cycles.

Print legibility

CleanMark’s thermal transfer labels produce smudge-proof, detailed print that remains legible through cryogenic temperatures and moisture exposure.

Moisture and chemical resistance

From liquid nitrogen exposure to condensation and harsh cleaning chemicals, CleanMark’s cryogenic labels are designed to stand the most extreme elements of your research or production environment.

What if I need a cryogenic label that’s clean or sterile?

Extreme cold durability is just one of many label aspects that need to be optimized for a label to perform well in your operation. We consider them all.

Let us design the perfect cryogenic label for you

What sets CleanMark apart from other label producers is our expertise and level of service. Our label experts work with you to understand the exact parameters of your operational needs and then design a label that meets every one of them — even if we have to invent something new to make it happen.
