Drum labels need to be very durable because they are applied to rough surfaces: painted steel, metal or plastic containers that most of the times carry hazardous materials. These drums are transported and stored in very harsh conditions, so the custom labels that we manufacture need to be permanent in order to adhere to drums under all conditions.
