Custom Labeling
Krayden provides custom labeling that meets the precise requirements of our customers worldwide.
For manufacturers and procurement teams handling specialty chemicals, adhesives, sealants, and coatings, accurate labeling is not optional — it is a quality and compliance requirement. Krayden's custom labeling service ensures every container that leaves our facilities carries the exact information your receiving, inspection, and production teams need to verify, store, and consume material correctly.
What Custom Labels Include
Custom labeling delivers accurate product specification allowing hassle-free inventory management. Labels can include any combination of the following fields:
- Lot Number
- Customer Part Number
- Customer Name
- Storage Information
- PO Number
- Shelf Life
- Expiration Date
Documentation Provided
Keeping accurate records of material is critical for quality systems, incoming inspection, and regulatory compliance. Every shipment can be supported by:
- Technical Data Sheets
- Certificates of Conformance
- Material Safety Data Sheets (SDS)
- Manufacturer Reports on Testing
- Certificates of Origin
AIAG Compliant Labeling is available for Automotive Customers — making all data conveniently accessible via a 2D barcode (QR code) for seamless integration with receiving and ERP systems.
Why Custom Labeling Matters
Standard manufacturer labels are designed for distribution, not for your production floor. Krayden bridges the gap with labeling that speaks your language.
Incoming Inspection Efficiency
When your part number, lot number, and shelf life appear directly on the label, receiving and quality teams can verify and clear material in seconds — no cross-referencing packing slips or manufacturer documentation.
ERP & WMS Integration
Barcoded labels — including 2D QR codes and Data Matrix formats — allow direct scanning into ERP and warehouse management systems, eliminating manual data entry errors and accelerating material flow from dock to stockroom.
Shelf Life & Expiry Control
Specialty chemicals and adhesives have defined shelf lives, often requiring temperature-controlled storage and FIFO rotation. Labels that clearly display manufacture date, expiration date, and storage conditions reduce the risk of out-of-date material reaching the production floor.
Full Lot Traceability
In aerospace, defense, and automotive supply chains, full lot traceability is a non-negotiable requirement. Custom labels with manufacturer lot numbers, Krayden lot numbers, and customer PO references create a complete chain of custody from manufacturer to assembly.
AIAG Compliance for Automotive
Automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers operating under AIAG standards require specific label formats and data fields. Krayden produces AIAG-compliant labels with 2D barcodes, ensuring smooth integration with automotive supply chain systems and quality requirements.
Global Consistency
With operations across the US, Europe, and Asia, Krayden can apply consistent custom labeling standards across all shipping locations — so your facilities in Denver, Singapore, and the Netherlands receive identically labeled material regardless of origin.
Industries That Depend on Custom Labeling
Any industry handling regulated, time-sensitive, or high-value specialty materials benefits from custom labeling. Krayden most commonly supports the following sectors:
Aerospace & Defense
Full lot traceability and material certification documentation required by AS9120, NADCAP, and customer-specific quality plans. Every container must be traceable from manufacturer production run to point of assembly.
Automotive OEM & Tier 1
AIAG-compliant labeling with 2D barcodes enables direct scanning into supplier portals and JIT replenishment systems. Critical for adhesives, sealants, and coatings used in body-in-white, powertrain, and EV battery assembly.
Electronics & Contract Manufacturing
High-volume PCB assembly and semiconductor packaging operations rely on accurate shelf life and storage condition labeling to prevent the use of degraded materials. Custom part numbering aligns incoming material directly to BOM references.
MRO & Aviation
Maintenance and overhaul operations require clearly labeled, fully traceable materials with current certifications on hand. Krayden's Aerospheres division specializes in MRO supply with documentation and labeling standards aligned to airline and regulatory requirements.
How It Works
Setting up custom labeling with Krayden is straightforward. Most programs are established during the initial order setup and apply automatically to all subsequent shipments.
Label Specification
Share your required fields, part number format, barcode standard, and any template or logo requirements with your Krayden account manager.
Proof & Approval
Krayden produces a label proof for your review and approval before applying to any shipment. Changes are accommodated before sign-off.
Applied at Shipment
Custom labels are applied at our warehouse prior to shipment. Lot-specific data (lot number, expiry, PO) is populated automatically from order information.
Ongoing & Scalable
Once established, the label profile applies to every order automatically. Label specs can be updated at any time as your requirements evolve.
Our custom labeling meets the needs and demands of our customers worldwide.
