Labelling on cables, wires, walls and many other applications can be troublesome and confusing if they are hand-made. But with the P-touch labelling machine, labelling for any tough job is now easy.

Designed and produced by Brother Industries, Ltd., the leading Japanese electronics manufacturer, P-touch is designed to handle labelling tasks for any kind of work including in the construction industry.

With its wide range of models P-touch can be applied to almost all electrical functions such as faceplates (essential to creating labels for electrical outlets, wall, plates and outlet covers); cable wrap (essential to creating labels that wrap around cable or wires), cable flags (essential to creating labels to identify very thin cables or wires), patch panels (essential to creating labels to identify various type of panels such as networks, patches, distribution boards, and terminal blocks), and serialised printings (essential to creating labels with serial numbering).

P-touch labels have strong adhesion and are water resistant, fade resistant, temperature resistant, abrasion resistant and chemical resistant. They can withstand harsh environments due to extra layer of lamination and the high resolution give a professional appearance. Users can also create/design labels to their own requirements using free P-touch Editor software along with many options of label colour and sizes.

Brother TZe Laminated Labels are designed to withstand water, grease, fading and abrasion. They can be used in both hot and cold environments as well as indoors and outdoors as they is protected by clear laminated film. The labels are engineered to qualify to industrial standards, ideal for manufacturing & construction, datacom & electrical, medical and general business applications.

Brother also produces special tapes suitable for construction sector. Its flexible identification tape is laminated and specially designed for labelling around sharp bends and cylindrical surfaces; perfect for labelling around hydraulic and electrical connectors, as well as small curved surfaces such as tubing, cables with wire flagging applications. It is good for wrapping/flagging wires and cable, cylindrical surfaces, conduits, sharp bends, PVC pipes and rods.

Its Strong Adhesive tape has twice the adhesive strength of our standard laminated tapes. Made with a ‘softer’ adhesive that instantly fills recessed surfaces for more surface area contact, it is excellent for labelling textured, rough or uneven surfaces like those in typical plant, field and manufacturing operations.

It is also good for painted metal surfaces, powder–coated surfaces, patch panels, utility cabinets and plants.

In Cambodia, Brother P-touch label printers and laminated labels are distributed with authorisation by Business Machines & Supplies Center (BMSC).
