Types of Vertical Warehouse Labels & Totem Labels
Multi-Level Totem Labels
Multi-level totem labels arrange multiple barcodes vertically on a single label, with each barcode corresponding to a specific pallet rack level. This creates an easy-to-scan representation of the storage locations above and supports efficient person-down scanning.
Color-Coded Totem Labels
Color-coded totem labels use different colors to distinguish individual rack levels or locations. Color provides an additional visual reference that can help workers quickly identify the correct location and reduce scanning errors.
Totem Labels with Companion Labels
Companion labels can be placed at the actual pallet positions while corresponding barcodes are grouped on the vertical totem label below. This provides an accessible barcode for scanning while maintaining clear identification at the physical storage location.
Vertical Warehouse Label Materials & Options
The right vertical rack label depends on your rack surface, operating environment, durability requirements and how frequently locations change. ID Label offers several material and adhesive options for warehouse totem labels.
Magnetic Vertical Labels
A reusable option for warehouses with changing locations or rack configurations. Magnetic warehouse labels can be moved without adhesive residue and are especially useful on textured, pitted or slotted rack beams where traditional adhesive labels may be difficult to apply.
Arctic Xtreme™ Cold Storage Labels
Designed for freezer and cold-storage environments. Arctic Xtreme™ labels can be applied at temperatures as low as -20°F and perform at temperatures down to -65°F, with an adhesive engineered to withstand moisture, frost and extreme cold.
Clean Release™ Repositionable Labels
Ideal for facilities where locations change over time. Clean Release™ labels can be repositioned or removed without leaving behind adhesive residue, making them well suited for temporary, seasonal or frequently changing storage configurations.
BullsEye™ Ultra-Durable Labels
Designed for demanding warehouse environments where labels may be exposed to frequent contact from pallets, carts, forklifts and other equipment. BullsEye™ labels provide a rigid, durable identification solution without requiring a separate placard.
Permanent Adhesive Vertical Labels
For established warehouse locations that are unlikely to change, permanent pressure-sensitive labels provide a straightforward and reliable option for long-term pallet rack identification.
