“All markers look - and perform - alike.”

Most marker manufacturers are printers who imprint standardized legends on medium-grade materials - without any understanding of the harsh conditions markers must withstand. These "one-size-fits-all" markers frequently fail on pipes in less than two years due to deterioration of the marker material or its adhesive. The result is that your plant becomes a test site for repeated product failures, and marking efforts are often curtailed.

The MSI Advantage:

Quality Markers Fit To Your Specific Application

Since pipe marker costs are secondary to installation expense, it makes sense to use the best, most durable materials available. As a manufacturer dedicated only to the production and installation of mechanical identification, MSI has developed the highest quality products and the most advanced printing capabilities in the industry. First, we learn and understand your plant's needs, its operating environment, regulatory, safety and training requirements. Then, we help select markers that are best able to withstand the environmental effects within the plant and which provide the most useful legend copy.
