Product Description
Easy to use Controlled Room Temp Irrreversible Time temperature detection label
How long has my product been kept above its maximum recommended storagetemperature?
What if you need to know how long your product has spent above a defined temperature?
What if your product can tolerate a number of exposures to an elevated temperature provided they are short lived?
Timestrip PLUS indicators provide simple, quick and cost effective answers.
They record elapsed time at or above a specified threshold temperature; for example at 8°C/46°F for up to 8 hours.
Timestrip PLUS are small and self-adhesive so they can be attached directly to a product, package or shipment.
They can be stored inert at room temperature and then activated without pre-conditioning when required.
Benefits & Features
Flexible Use and Storage | Inert until activated so it can be stored at room temperature and activated when required in the field. Products with thresholds from -20°C to +20°C can be activated at room temperature and don't need any pre-conditioning. Products with thresholds of +25°C or above need preheating to activate. |
Reliable Evidence | Single use, irreversible and accurate to within +/-1°C/2°F. |
Targeted Decision Making | Small, light and cost effective enough to support the monitoring of many packs within a consignment; pockets of temperature abuse can be identified. |
Easy to Read | Visually clear and easy to interpret so handlers can quickly and confidently recognise temperature abuse. Clear and visible monitoring may also encourage a greater duty of care. |
Quality Assured | Manufactured to ISO9001:2008, and process and batch validated. Each indicator has a unique serial number. It is patented, safe and disposable. |
Cost | A low cost solution that requires no power. It is a cost effective and practical replacement for data loggers. |
The Standard Range
From -20°C / -4°F to +38°C / 100°F. The most popular temperatures can be ordered from distributor stocks and
the rest can be ordered subject to minimum volumes.

Type | Irreversible, single use |
Activation Feature | A manual activation button on the top - the 'On' window turns blue to confirm it is armed. |
Indication | A blue colour appears in the viewing window if a breach of the threshold temperature has occurred. The duration of one or more breaches is shown by how far the blue colour has progressed along the time markers. |
Accuracy of Temperature | +/-1°C/2°F |
Accuracy of Time | +/- 15% in isothermal conditions |
Quality Assurance | Produced under ISO9001:2008 |
Size | 40mm x 19mm |
Shipping & Handling
Recommended Storage | Room temperature: 22°C/72°F at 20-80% humidity. Cool dark environment |
Packaging | 100 indicators per bag Labelled with expiry and batch number |
Shipping Package Requirements | No special requirements as inert until activated |
Protection | Splash proof |
Traceability | Unique serial number on each indicator |
Shelf Life | Pre-activation: 2 years from shipping for most lines, otherwise 2 years from manu- facturing date. Active life: up to 1 year. |
How it Works
All Timestrip® PLUS indicators work from three principles. A mixture will melt from solid to liquid
form when an ascending temperature threshold is breached and return to solid form
if the temperature falls again to its freeze point (STOP tem- perature).
When in liquid form, the mixture will move laterally through a porous membrane at a known rate.
The progress of the liquid will be visible through a viewing window.
Once any Timestrip® PLUS is activated,
if the temperature being monitored remains below the STOP temperature, the blue colour will not move.
If the threshold is breached, the blue colour will progress to the viewing window with the time markers.
Each movement is irreversible so the cumulative time of any temperature breaches is shown by
how far the blue colour has moved along the time markers.
Activation InstructionsStorage- Inactive
Timestrip ® PLUS is inert prior to activation so it can be stored at room temperature.
Activation Conditions
Activation is possible when the temperature is above the threshold temperature.
If stored and then activated at room temperature:
• No pre-conditioning is required for Timestrip® PLUS of -20°C to +20°C.
• Warming to 1°C above the threshold is required for Timestrip PLUS of +25°C or more.
To Activate
When the button is fully squeezed a blue activation line appears in the first window and ON is revealed. If this does not happen,
check you are activating at a temperature 1°C above the threshold and re-squeeze the button fully.
Within 5 minutes of activation you must place the Timestrip® PLUS below its STOP temperature. If the carrying card or product to
be monitored is already at or below the STOP temperature the Timestrip® PLUS can be stuck directly to it after activation.
Otherwise,chill the indicator at the STOP temperature for up to an hour before applying to avoid premature indication.
Review
As long as the product or carrying card is maintained under the threshold temperature the second window
with the time markers will remain white. If a breach occurs, the blue colour will progress to the second
window and the duration of the breach can be read using the time markers.
The progress of the blue colour is irreversible but it will stop moving if the temperature falls again to the
STOP temperature. The time markers show the cumulative time of all breaches.
