For #3, we've been using Kimdura piggyback labels which are really easy to remove without ripping the label. I don't know if they will last 10 years, since we've only been using a bar code system for our inventory for 2 years (but they've lasted that long, and they have been chemically resistant in that time as well).

We purchased our labels from Tracking Solutions (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__trackingsolutions.com_&d=BQIFAg&c=lb62iw4YL4RFalcE2hQUQealT9-RXrryqt9KZX2qu2s&r=meWM1Buqv4IQ27AlK1OJRjcQl09S1Zta6YXKalY_Io0&m=ln6-QWyjcennvP-2UPJDFu0FT1FQIeIvGLJWCu3XlAw&s=w_jL1ejrPFDPrmfbqMHjuPgUJcn11cbnYXXT2xHSomI&e= )

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Bar code labels for chemical containers

Does anyone have any specific recommendations for bar code label vendors whose labels:
1. last a long time (around a decade);
2. resist chemical contamination; and
3. are reliably removable from the container when the occasion arises in the lab setting?

Thanks for any leads on this.
