Designing a tag that works
A good asset tag is simple. The asset number must be large enough to read at arm's length, the barcode must have a clear margin, and the logo should identify the owner without crowding the code. We lay out every tag to those rules and suggest a size once we know the assets. For detail, read how to design custom aluminium asset tags and customising aluminium tags.

Custom tags for different organisations
- Donor-funded projects and NGOs: tags naming both the organisation and the donor or project, as many funding agreements require.
- County governments and public institutions: numbering by department and location to support verification under IPSAS.
- Schools and universities: tags for labs, ICT rooms, furniture and sports equipment.
- Companies: branded tags that match your corporate identity across branches.

From artwork to delivery
- Send your logo (vector file if you have one), quantity and number format.
- We recommend material, size and adhesive for your assets.
- You receive a free digital proof to approve or change.
- Tags are produced in sequence and checked for print and scan quality.
- We deliver across Kenya, ship across Africa, or tag the assets for you.

Custom asset tag ideas
- Department colour coding: a different colour band for ICT, finance, facilities and labs.
- Location prefixes: numbers that start with a branch or county code.
- Dual branding: your logo alongside a donor or partner logo.
- Return information: a phone number or email so lost items can be returned.
- Service reminders: a QR code that opens the maintenance log.








Frequently asked questions
What file should I send for my logo?
A vector file (AI, EPS, PDF or SVG) gives the sharpest result. If you only have a PNG or JPG, send the highest resolution available and we will advise.
Can I see the design before printing?
Yes. Every order includes a free digital proof showing the layout, logo, numbering and barcode or QR code. We only print after you approve it.
Can tags include a donor's logo?
Yes. Many NGOs and donor-funded projects print both the organisation's and the donor's name or logo on each tag.
Can you make custom shapes?
Yes. Standard rectangles are most economical, but we can produce custom shapes and sizes to fit specific assets.
