Materials & finishes
| Option | Choices |
|---|---|
| Material | Anodized aluminum for lighter indoor items, or 304/316 stainless for outdoor use |
| Thickness | 0.3–1.5 mm depending on the base material |
| Size | 25x25mm, 40x15mm, 50x20mm, 75x25mm, or custom to your drawing |
| Finish | Matte finish cuts glare so a phone camera reads the code cleanly outdoors |
| Marking/Process | Laser-engraved or printed QR generated from your URL or serial list |
| Mounting | 3M adhesive, holes, rivets |
| Variable data | Unique QR per tag linking to a webpage or CMMS record, with a printed serial as backup |
QR only needs a phone camera to read, which is the practical difference from barcode tags that usually need a handheld or fixed laser/CCD scanner. QR suits crews who already carry phones in the field.
Typical buyers & uses
- Maintenance technicians — scanning a tag with a phone to log service directly into a CMMS.
- Field service companies — giving customers a phone-scannable link to equipment history or manuals.
- Property managers — linking a QR tag to a warranty page or maintenance schedule.

FAQ
Can each tag link to a different webpage or asset record?
Yes, we generate a unique QR per tag from the list of URLs or IDs you send us.
Will a scratched or dirty QR code still scan?
QR codes tolerate some damage by design; heavy scratching or missing corners can still block a scan, so we keep the code sized with margin.
Do we need special software to generate QR codes for our batch?
No, send us your list of links or IDs and we generate and engrave the codes for you.
Can a QR tag also show a human-readable serial?
Yes, most layouts pair the QR code with a printed serial number on the same tag.
How is a QR tag different from a barcode tag?
QR reads with any phone camera; barcode usually needs a dedicated handheld or fixed scanner already in use at your site.
