Home » Metal Asset Tags » Aluminum Asset Tags

Aluminum asset tags carry a serial and a scan code on a metal that stays flat and light on laptops, monitors, and classroom carts. Himgo cuts and anodizes these in Shenzhen for IT teams and facility staff who tag hundreds of indoor items without adding weight or thickness to the item.

  • Anodized aluminum, colored or natural
  • 0.3–1.5 mm thickness
  • 25x25mm to 75x25mm, or custom
  • MOQ 100–500 pcs
  • Sample lead 5–7 days

Materials & finishes

MaterialAnodized aluminum; 304/316 stainless or brass on request for mixed fleets
Thickness0.3–1.5 mm depending on mounting method

Colored anodizing lets a facilities team code tags by building or department without a separate print step. Matte finish cuts glare when a phone or handheld scanner reads the code under fluorescent light.

Typical buyers & uses

  • IT departments — tagging laptops, monitors, and docking stations for lease and warranty tracking.
  • Facilities managers — labeling HVAC units, panels, and fixtures inside offices and schools.
  • School and university asset teams — registering classroom electronics and lab equipment.

FAQ

Is anodized aluminum durable enough for outdoor tagging?

It holds up well indoors and under cover. For direct outdoor weather or wash-down areas, stainless steel tags usually last longer.

Can tags be numbered in sequence for our asset list?

Yes, serials are laser-engraved in the sequence you send, matched to your spreadsheet.

What mounting works on curved or thin equipment housings?

3M adhesive backing conforms to slightly curved or thin surfaces better than rivets or drilled holes.

Do the anodized colors fade over time?

Anodized color holds up well indoors; salt-spray resistance testing is available on request for tougher settings.

Can a tag show a readable serial and a scan code together?

Yes, most layouts combine a human-readable serial with a QR or barcode on the same tag.
