In the high-stakes environment of the operating room, there is no margin for error. Anesthesiologists, charge nurses, and hospital administrators depend on systems that are clear, standardized, and reliable. That’s why color-coded, custom anesthesia tape with ASTM-compliant drug imprints has become a critical tool in modern perioperative care.

But choosing the right partner to supply those labels is just as important as choosing the right system.

Why Hospitals and GPO's Trust ChromaLabel:

For more than 50 years, ChromaLabel has worked alongside hundreds of hospitals, medical suppliers, and Group Purchasing Organizations to provide dependable, ASTM-aligned anesthesia labeling solutions. We understand that this is not just about colored tape – it’s about patient safety, supply chain reliability, and operational consistency across entire healthcare networks.

ASTM-Compliant, Stock Drug Imprints – Ready When You Need Them

Our most popular stock anesthesia tape imprints follow ASTM color guidelines for drug classes commonly used in anesthesia – including Propofol, Fentanyl, Rocuronium, Epinephrine, Midazolam, and more. This standardization supports safe syringe identification while ensuring compliance with recognized industry recommendations.

Because we maintain consistent stock programs, your facility avoids the unpredictability of short runs, inconsistent colors, or last-minute substitutions. What you order is what you receive – every time.

Consistency Across Multi-Facility Systems

For IDNs and GPO-driven networks, standardization is essential. We help healthcare systems implement uniform color-coded anesthesia tape programs across multiple facilities, reducing variation and supporting staff who rotate between sites. When colors and imprints remain consistent, cognitive load decreases and workflow improves.

Supply Chain Stability You Can Count On

In healthcare, disruptions are costly. With five decades of manufacturing expertise, refined production processes, and long-standing raw material relationships, ChromaLabel delivers reliable lead times and predictable inventory support. We understand hospital procurement cycles and work proactively to prevent backorders and interruptions.

"It was really important to me to find a company that had good reviews, and seemed like they take care of their customers and their employees."

More Than a Vendor – A Long-Term Partner

While color-coded anesthesia tape supports medication safety and aligns with ASTM guidance, the real value comes from partnering with a manufacturer who understands your operational realities.

We consult with anesthesiology teams, materials managers, and supply chain leadership to:

• Standardize stock imprints across departments

• Align color programs with ASTM recommendations

• Optimize ordering structures for GPO and IDN systems

• Reduce SKU confusion and streamline replenishment

"The responses from ChromaLabel were really quick. That's really important to me. It's like a dream come true when I can get actual communication instead of my email being ignored..."
