Color
Coding of Security Labels
Color
Coding of Tamper Evident Labels is sometimes done to distinguish assets
visually in situations requiring quick inspection where it is difficult to scan Security Labels.
- Reading security tags very quickly
by color could represent significant time savings for security personel in public environments.
Interdepartmental transfer of equipment is reduced by allowing immediate visual identification of assigned department color codes.
- Inventory barcode scanned items can be sorted by color, allowing clear separation into grouped categories and specific classifications.
Some
color coding examples: Color code assets for accounting department green, facilities
maintenance department purple, while sales department assets may be
color coded red. Choice of colors may also represent the year of asset acquisition
and rotate through colors representing new assets acquired each
year. Types of assets might be distinguished by color with
computer equipment carrying blue security labels, furniture with orange
labels and fixtures, black labels.
Black
Security Labels are most resistant to fading outdoors. Red asset labels
are seen quickly against most machinery and silver tamper-evident labels are
least noticeable on most types of publicly accessible assets.
Color
coded security labels can be used in conjunction with barcodes, using colors
to distinguish scheduled scanning of barcoded items. Individual
groups of ccolor coded items may be sorted by department, year of acquisition or type of asset as in the examples above.
