Simplify data capture with\nsmear-resistant barcodes that fit your custom label. <\/li><li>Writable surface\n&#8211; Since caregivers will most likely need to write on your labels, minimize time\nspent looking for appropriate pens and integrate writable surfaces into your\nlabeling solution. <\/li><li>Chemical\nresistance &#8211; Last but not least, healthcare labels should be able to endure\nabrasive and\/or corrosive chemicals as well as disinfectants in order to\nprotect information.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Using\nZebra Certified Labels, Barcodes Inc. creates scalable and cost-effective\nlabeling solutions built for healthcare.
