“We turn to EDP
whenever we have media storage challenges
because they always have the solution.”
Service
EDP representatives begin by assessing your media storage requirements. Before recommending
a solution and the right combination of media storage products, we collect
comprehensive information about your media, capacity requirements, indexing systems, potential growth, access needs, business &
operational goals, budget, and more. Our teams of CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) specialists will create custom layouts to maximize the efficiency and capacity of your media library.

Advantages of Bar Coding:
• Bar coding speeds up tape identification and handling
• Easily tracks tape stored off-site and in multiple locations
• Provides the highest level of auditing and inventory control
Computer Generated Tri-Optic Labels
EDP’s Tri-Optic labels utilize computer generated printing to put the largest alpha and numeric characters precisely in the center of the label for perfect horizontal and vertical alignment. Each label features a strong, double-sided, acrylic-based adhesive which resists peeling once bonded.
A (1) mil thick overlaminate decreases UV discoloration &
smudging, while preventing tearing and providing an easy-to-read label surface.
Media Identification
EDP LABELS FEATURE:
• Highest resolution laser-quality bar codes which are verified and certified for fast, accurate, and 100% machine readability
• Protective film layer to ensure long term, accurate scanning
• Available in the standard 3 of 9 code or other ATL modified bar codes
• Available in numeric, alpha, and alphanumeric sequences
COLOR CODING
Color Coding is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve existing filing systems. When color is used in conjunction with alpha and numeric characters, tape identification and retrieval
accelerates up to 50% faster. EDP’s color coding systems are flexible, easy to implement and very cost effective. Color coding offers many advantages including reducing retrieval and filing time, improving read time, and increasing efficiency.
