Material, UV Stability & Outdoor Durability
PV Labels manufactures solar labels, reflective labels, engraved placards, and metal signs using outdoor-rated material systems selected for photovoltaic and electrical installations. Our products are built for long-term readability on inverters, disconnects, raceways, combiner boxes, batteries, service equipment, electrical panels, and other solar PV identification points.
Depending on the product, PV Labels uses FLEXcon white vinyl label materials, clear protective overlaminate, Avery Dennison engineering-grade reflective film, Rowmark UltraGrave engraved acrylic, and aluminum sign materials. Each material is selected based on the installation environment, surface type, visibility requirement, and expected field exposure.
Standard White Solar Labels
Standard white PV labels are produced using FLEXcon white vinyl label material for outdoor solar and electrical identification. This material system is used for warning labels, compliance labels, equipment labels, and durable goods labeling.
- FLEXcon white vinyl label material system
- Outdoor-rated material for solar and electrical labeling
- Permanent acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive
- Compatible with conventional and UV ink systems
- UL 969 recognized material component where applicable
- Used for NEC solar labels, disconnect labels, raceway labels, inverter labels, and equipment labels
Reflective Solar Labels
Reflective PV labels use Avery Dennison engineering-grade beaded retroreflective film for improved visibility. Reflective labels are ideal for solar identification points where daytime and nighttime visibility are important.
- Avery Dennison engineering-grade retroreflective film

Custom Placard Review
Shipping got lost so MAJOR delay that caused us to cancel an inspection but PV Labels management did all they could and expedited a new placard out. Crappy situation all around but nothing more I could ask for when dealt a bad hand.
