Poly Chart Dividers for Medical Records

★★★★★5.0 from 1 verified review

Tabzoola is a US manufacturer and supplier of poly chart dividers for medical records, made to order in Schaumburg, Illinois by Anselmo Die & Index, Inc. — die-cutting index tabs since 1993 and shipping nationwide as Tabzoola.

Poly chart dividers are the medical-records divider in its most durable form: solid .015 polyethylene, so the tab and the sheet are one piece of plastic with nothing laminated on to peel or tear. They wipe clean, tolerate gloves and spills, and outlast the chart itself — which is why records rooms and clinics standardize on poly for active charts.

Tabzoola prints poly chart dividers to your own section names in 11 sheet colors, collated into ready-to-assemble sets from a 25-set minimum, with live pricing online and a free PDF proof before production.

Why poly for medical charts

Medical charts fail at the divider tab: paper tabs soften with handling and tear at the extension. Poly does not — the .015 sheet is water-resistant, wipeable and effectively tear-proof, which matters where charts are handled with gloves, sanitized between pulls, or live on a high-touch active shelf.

Solid .015 poly — sheet and tab are one piece, nothing to delaminate
Wipes clean; stands up to moisture, gloves and daily pulls
11 sheet colors for section color-coding, mixable within a set
3-hole punched for standard chart rings; body printing available

Printed to your section map

Every set prints your own section titles — up to 2 lines per tab — in your color scheme, and arrives collated so charts assemble identically. Common medical sets run 6 to 10 sections: demographics, history, progress notes, medications, labs, consents, billing, correspondence.

Where paper still makes sense

Poly costs more per set and produces in about 15 business days versus about 5 for paper. Archived charts that sit untouched for a retention period do fine in Mylar-reinforced paper — many departments run poly on the active shelf and paper in the archive. If you are weighing the two, our poly-versus-paper guide walks the decision.

Frequently asked questions

What are poly chart dividers?

Medical chart dividers cut from solid .015 polyethylene — sheet and tab in one piece of plastic. They are water-resistant, wipeable and tear-proof, printed with custom section titles in 11 sheet colors, 3-hole punched for standard chart rings and collated into sets.

Poly versus paper chart dividers — which one?

Poly for active, high-touch charts: it wipes clean and does not tear, at a higher price and about 15-day production. Mylar-reinforced paper for archives and cost-sensitive volume: about 5-day production and the Mylar edge still protects the tab. Many records departments use both — poly active, paper archive.

Can poly dividers be sanitized?

Yes — the solid poly sheet is non-absorbent and wipes clean with standard surface disinfectants, which is a main reason clinical settings choose poly over paper for charts that move between rooms.

What is the minimum order and price?

Minimum 25 sets, priced live online in the poly configurator with setup included and a free PDF proof before production. Volume pricing runs past 1,000 sets.

Great Job

First time we have ordered plastic tabs, printing was sharp and easy to read. Will definitely come back.

Response from Tabzoola · Aug 6, 2026

Thank you, Harvey — glad the printing came through sharp. That’s the part that takes real care on poly, since the ink has to sit on the plastic instead of soaking into paper the way it does on an index sheet. Your set is .015 poly, so it’ll wipe clean and should outlast the binder it’s in. We’ll be ready whenever you need the next one.
