How to read K-LABEL K-LABEL Basic displays three separate squares of thermographic ink that which will permanently change colour when they reach a specific temperature. Using K-LABEL Basic for normal roto-grades of polyethylene, correct cure will be indicated when the bottom two squares have turned from white to black. This indicates that a peak internal mould air temperature of 204℃ has been reached. If no squares, or only one square, of ink has changed colour, the part will probably be under-cured. If all three squares have changed colour, the part will probably be over-cured. K-LABEL Advanc

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as 493K LIMITED, number NI047547. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
