Most of the stuff from Farnell uses thermal labels that fade.
RS components also uses thermal labels.
You can check if it is thermal with a soldering iron, obviously.
There are varying grades of thermal paper, with different archival time and
always only guaranteed under strict environmental conditions.
So you basically have to copy them all.
I pay for the components, not the label, so I don't hold it against them.
