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
- Omni-directional reflective performance
- ASTM D4956 Type I / EN-12899 RA1 performance
- Permanent pressure-sensitive adhesive
- Used for reflective solar labels, emergency identification, disconnect labels, and rapid shutdown labels
Engraved Solar Placards
Engraved solar placards are produced with Rowmark UltraGrave, a polymer-surfaced impact-modified acrylic designed for interior and exterior signage. Engraved placards are a strong option for permanent field marking, system maps, directories, and high-visibility equipment identification.
- Rowmark UltraGrave engraved acrylic
- Polymer-surfaced impact-modified acrylic
- Laser or rotary engravable
- Matte / satin finish options
- RoHS compliant, PVC-free, halogen-free, and UL 94 HB rated
- Used for engraved placards, system maps, directories, and permanent identification

Material & Durability FAQ
Are PV Labels UV stable?
PV Labels offers UV-rated and outdoor-rated solar labeling materials depending on the product type. Standard white solar labels, reflective labels, engraved placards, and metal signs are each built with material systems selected for solar and electrical environments.
What materials does PV Labels use?
PV Labels uses FLEXcon white vinyl material systems for standard solar labels, Avery Dennison engineering-grade reflective film for reflective labels, Rowmark UltraGrave for engraved placards, and aluminum materials for metal solar signs.
Which material is best for outdoor solar labels?
The best material depends on the installation. White vinyl labels are commonly used for standard NEC solar warning labels. Reflective labels are used when visibility is important. Engraved acrylic placards and aluminum signs are used for permanent field identification, system maps, directories, and harsh exterior environments.

good product
I’m happy with the placard quality. My drawing was altered and the “You are here” text was relocated to an inaccurate location. Did not ship the same day as estimates and shipping was slow after that so they were not here in time for inspection. Very disappointing
-
Great Work
They always do great work and turnaround is quick
-
Better than my drawing
I was surprised at how nicely the design was laid out. It looked better than what I submitted.
-
Great work
They took my bad drawing and made it look good, and they did it and had it shipped in no time. Highly recommend.

Placards made easy
Customer service above and beyond, Thank you for making this easy.

High Quality Placards to Compliance with Electrical Inspector
High-quality product, but I would like to share 2 important things with new buyers:
1) You need to order with Rivet Holes option or you are planning to drill 4 holes yourself then attach it to your main electrical service panel with the rivet to pass the electrical inspector. They will not accept the placard with adhesive only.
2) You are responsible for the layout and content of the placard because you are the one who approves the design before official printing. If the electrical inspector rejects your placard, you have to order a new one. It takes me at least 3 redlines to get the final design. -
As advertised and on time
What more could you want
-
very nice
High quality routed hard plastic sign. You took my graphic and text and did a great job with it. Should last a lifetime.
-
Great service
Super happy with PV labels. The order was filled and shipped the next day. Quality product. W
-
Just what we needed.
Thanks! You even fixed the sign to include just what I needed and not the entirety of the plot plan that I sent.
-
Mind Blowing
These guys are great. I Sent a very crappy hand drawn design and the placard that came in looked very professional. It included every detail that my drawing did, plus some. I would recommend this any day. Also, the placard was ordered Friday afternoon and was in the mailbox by Monday morning.

quick turn around
a little pricey but it was fast.
