Scaffold Tags and Ladder Inspection Tags

Custom printed inspection tags for scaffolding, ladders, harnesses and site equipment — tough waterproof plastic, branded with your company name, and punched ready for cable ties. Manufactured in England by CP Cards since 1992.

If you are paying for generic off-the-shelf tag systems, you are advertising someone else on your own scaffold. Our tags carry your branding, your contact details and your inspection fields, at prices that make sense when you are tagging hundreds of assets.

Built for site conditions

These tags live outdoors, in rain, dust and UV, strapped to a scaffold standard or a ladder stile. Rigid plastic will not tear, go soggy or fade after a month on site. We recommend our premium matt finish for inspection tags — it takes permanent marker cleanly, so inspection dates and initials can be added on site by hand.

Your branding, your fields

We print whatever your inspection process needs:

• Company name, logo and contact number
• Inspection date grids or next inspection due fields
• Unique asset numbers for tracking equipment
• Scaffold incomplete or do not use warnings on the reverse

Because every tag is custom printed, hire companies can add their hire desk number, and scaffolding firms can turn every tagged scaffold into a small advert.

Asset numbering

We specialise in variable data printing. Each tag can carry a unique sequential asset number, so ladders, harnesses and lifting equipment can be individually identified in your inspection records.

A note on compliance

Tags are a visible record of inspection — they support your inspection regime, they do not replace it. Inspections must still be carried out by a competent person in line with the relevant regulations. What our tags do is make the status of every asset obvious at a glance.

Inspection Tag FAQs

Can inspection dates be written on the tags?

Yes. We recommend our premium matt finish for inspection tags, as it takes permanent marker better than our high gloss finish, so inspection dates and initials can be added on site.

Are the tags weatherproof?

Yes. They are rigid waterproof plastic and are made to survive outdoor site conditions, including rain and sunlight, without tearing or fading.

Can each tag have a unique asset number?

Yes. We print sequential or custom asset numbers on every tag, so individual ladders, harnesses and equipment can be tracked in your inspection records.

How do the tags attach to scaffolding and ladders?

Each tag has a punched hole, 5mm in diameter and positioned anywhere around the edge, ready for a cable tie. Cable ties themselves are not supplied.

Can we have our own company branding instead of a generic tag?

Yes. That is the point. Every tag is custom printed with your logo, colours and contact details, so your scaffolding carries your name rather than a generic tag brand.
