Tips from our labeling professionals

What our labeling expert Manfred says

Which inspection stickers are suitable for your application depends primarily on your regulations. Both variants are permanently legible with the thermal transfer printer and last a very long time. However, if your inspection stickers need to be tamper-proof, choose the version made from tamper-proof document film!

Test badges properties

Inspection labels are used on a wide variety of electrical devices, machines, systems, and components. In industrial labeling, they fall under the category of inspection markings. An inspection label typically indicates when the next inspection is due. During periodic maintenance of electrical machinery, safety labels on equipment are checked, among other things. The inspection stickers are checked to ensure they are up to date, and it is verified that the inspection dates comply with regulations (year). 


In our guide, "Design and Print Your Own Inspection Stickers," we explain step by step how to customize inspection stickers and then print them yourself.

Here you'll find an overview of our thermal transfer printers for durable inspection stickers. 

Inspection stickers for DGUV inspections and the next inspection date

Inspection stickers make the inspection status visible directly on the equipment and simplify the organization of recurring inspections. This makes it easy to quickly determine whether an inspection has been performed and when the next one is scheduled, particularly for electrical devices, machines, and systems.

For inspections conducted in accordance with the relevant DGUV regulations, the actual inspection is generally performed and documented by a suitably qualified person. An inspection sticker does not replace this documentation, but supplements it as a clearly visible mark directly on the inspected equipment.

Texit inspection labels can be used to display various details tailored to the specific inspection process, for example:

  • "Certified by DGUV"
  • "Next Test Date"
  • Test Date
  • Equipment Number
  • Exam ID
  • Barcode or QR code

This allows different test procedures, locations, and equipment to be covered by a uniform labeling solution.

Inspection Stickers Next Inspection Date

One of the most common uses is to indicate the next inspection date. This makes it immediately clear from the equipment itself when the next inspection is scheduled.

This is particularly helpful when dealing with large inventories of equipment and is suitable, for example, for:

  • electrical equipment
  • Machinery and Equipment
  • Ladders and Step Stools
  • medical devices
  • Equipment in the workshop, office, or cafeteria

Depending on the application, additional information can be added alongside the next inspection date, such as the inspection date, device ID, or a QR code linking to digital documentation. 

Vinyl film or document film—which inspection sticker is right?

Depending on the application, different materials are available.

Inspection stickers made of vinyl film

  • A durable solution for general inspection and maintenance markings
  • Flexible and suitable for many standard applications
  • recommended if no special tamper protection is required

Inspection stickers made from document-grade film

  • for applications requiring enhanced tamper resistance
  • break into pieces when an attempt is made to remove them
  • This makes it significantly more difficult to transfer the load to another piece of equipment
  • It makes sense if attempts to poach players are to be made visible

The choice of material depends on the specific application and the desired characteristics of the marking.

Texit Inspection Label Printing System

To ensure reliable results, the inspection sticker, ribbon, and printing method should be coordinated. Depending on the material used, different components and settings are required.

Texit offers solutions that can be combined to meet these needs, including:

  • Inspection stickers made of vinyl or document-grade film
  • Thermal transfer printers
  • matching ribbons
  • Texit Designer Software
  • Accessories for Various Labeling Tasks

This allows you to customize the labeling solution to suit the material, format, and application.
