The Products We Offer
We offer a wide variety of asset tagging solutions. Take a look at what may work for you.
Asset Tags
An asset tag is a unique label appended on equipment to aid tracking, inventory taking, and accountability follow-up. Among the different types of asset tags in Kenya, Swemi Tech offers two of the most versatile and durable asset tags:
Anodized Aluminium asset tags. These metallic asset tags are made from aluminum, making them the most durable due to their ability to resist extreme conditions. These are the most common asset tags in Kenya.
Polyester asset tags. Polyester or laminated type of asset tags are graphic images printed underneath transparent polyester material and bound with a substrate; hence, they are best for less harsh conditions.
Notably, there are critical components of our asset tags in Kenya:
Company name. This is essential as it will append an asset to your company to help know where the item belongs.
Company logo. Including a logo will help to quickly identify your company’s internal and external assets at a glance without going into the details.
- Barcode/QR code. Barcodes and QR codes are unique codes that help identify your asset identification upon scanning. In short, these codes store all your asset details.
4. Serial Number. These will ensure that asset tags are arranged and printed using a numerical sequence to ensure you maintain order in your business.
5. Sticking agent. This is the adhesive used to attach a tag to an asset. Swemi Tech mainly uses two sticking agents: acetone-activated and self-sticking sticking agents. The acetone-activated adhesive is a permanent sticking agent primarily used on metallic asset tags. In contrast, self-sticking asset tags are peel-and-stick forms of glue that are not permanent. These are the removable asset labels.
Below are the steps on how to use the two sticking agents to tag assets:
i. Peel the paper behind the asset tags.
ii. To activate acetone-activated asset tags, apply acetone to the adhesive.
iii. Press the tag on a clean asset surface.
iv. For self-sticking asset tags, stick the peeled part on a dust-free surface of an asset.
v. Record the asset’s data and move to the next property.
Barcode Scanners
A barcode code scanner is an optical scanning gadget that can read information stored in a series of pixels. Our barcode readers ensure you can read the codes printed on asset tags by scanning with smartphones or tablets. As the best asset tagging service in Kenya, we have guaranteed that our scanners are also available as cordless or corded and can connect to Android or iOS devices. We also have USB barcode scanners if you do not want wireless ones. We also have QR code readers in stock.
Fixed Asset Management Software
A fixed asset management software is a database that helps you track and monitor internal and external assets throughout the company’s entire lifecycle. It plays a critical role in fixed asset tagging as it compiles extensive data about your assets for efficient real-time tracking and long-term monitoring. It is a good solution to manage asset movement in the company. It is essential to have an asset management system if you have decided to tag your assets. It makes it easy for the barcode scanners to read your asset tags.

What is asset tagging and verification?
Asset tagging is placing a physical tag on an asset, usually in the form of a barcode or RFID tag. This tag contains information about the asset, such as its serial number, make, and model. Asset tags are used for various purposes, such as inventory control, tracking assets during shipping and storage, and asset identification in the case of theft or loss. Verification is the process of confirming that an asset tag contains accurate information. This typically involves scanning the tag and comparing the data to a master record. Verification can be done manually or automatically using barcode scanners or RFID readers. Asset tagging and verification are essential tools for managing physical assets. Asset tracking labels help organizations keep track of their inventory, ensure that assets are appropriately accounted for, and prevent theft and loss.
Will asset tagging help in business growth?
Asset tagging helps businesses grow in several ways. First, it helps minimize losses by making tracking and recovering lost or stolen assets easy. Second, it helps businesses keep track of their inventory, so they can quickly know when an item needs to be replaced or repaired. Finally, asset tagging can also help companies to save money by improving the efficiency of their operations. Businesses can avoid costly downtime and wasted resources by knowing exactly where their assets are located and who is responsible for them. As a result, asset tagging is an essential tool for any business that wants to grow and prosper.
