UII submission added to automatic data services and durable UID nameplate and label products

MASON CITY, IOWA (June 22, 2009) – Metalcraft today announced a complete Unique Identification (UID) policy compliance solution for U.S. Department of Defense and its suppliers. The manufacturer of durable, customized UID tag and label products has added data management and registration services to their UID offerings.

Metalcraft now registers and submits Unique Item Identifiers (UIIs) and related pedigree data for End Items, Government Property, Legacy Assets and Virtual UII’s Embedded Items to UID Registry. The addition of this UID registration service means Metalcraft covers every aspect of UID policy compliance except physically attaching the product to the asset.

“Metalcraft delivers an accurate, efficient service that makes UID easy,” said Metalcraft president Steve Doerfler. “Metalcraft is a one-source solution for complete UID compliance.”

Metalcraft’s UID compliance solution includes three core components:

1. Durable products: Metalcraft manufactures photo anodized foil labels and metal nameplates, subsurface printed polyester labels, laser engraved nameplates and ceramic-on-stainless steel nameplates.
2. Quality information: Metalcraft ensures all UID information is verified and validated to ensure compliance with the latest UID and Mil STD 130 specs.
3. Registration/submission services: Metalcraft submit UII’s and related pedigree data to the UID Registry.

“Our durable products, expert data management and automatic registration services combine to save DoD suppliers time and money with their UID compliance,” said Doerfler. “Moreover, by taking care UID compliance for our Defense customers, Metalcraft helps these companies produce additional business value through their investments in asset marking and tracking.”
