How do you know what to label in a warehouse and which kinds of labels are best? Dasko Label, a manufacturer of customized bar-code and other labels for racks and shelving, floors, dock doors, containers and pallets, and other equipment, says it has written the book on the subject.

The company has published The Book: Labeling a Warehouse and Other Industrial Label Applications, a reference guide for labeling projects for the warehouse and other industrial automation applications. According to Dasko, the guide addresses bar-code specifications, label and sign materials, and design solutions. It includes photos of applications, sample designs, and a variety of bar codes for test scanning.

Dasko is offering the book free of charge to anyone who's responsible for labeling warehouse locations, inventory, pallets, totes, work-in-process, tools, or equipment. To request a copy, contact Paul Movsesian at paulm@daskolabel.com or (866) 286-6500, ext.111.

The Port of Oakland has been awarded $50 million from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Maritime Administration (MARAD) to modernize wharves and terminal infrastructure at its Outer Harbor facility, the port said today.

Each of these ships has a handling capacity of up to 24,000 TEUs (20-foot containers) but are currently restricted at portions of Oakland’s Outer Harbor by aging wharves which were originally designed for smaller ships.
