FEATURES:

 
  • Specially topcoated for print receptivity with most film ink systems and thermal transfer printing.
  • Adhesive dry ingredients are listed by FDA as indirect food contact additives when used in food packaging with minimum opportunity for exposure. See 21 CFR 175.105.
  • UL recognized for indoor/outdoor use UL file MH11410.
  • Adhesive offers good UV resistance and excellent adhesion to a wide variety of substrates, including polyolefins.
  • Liner is designed for high-speed die cutting and matrix stripping. This liner has been remoisturized after silicone coating to restabilize the sheet and reduce side curl, an excellent choice for perforation and fanfold applications.

PRINTING:

 

Gloss topcoat is designed to be printable with a variety of film inks and thermal transfer ribbons. The following inks and thermal transfer ribbons have been evaluated and found to give excellent adhesion when tested with 3M™ Tape 610 and 3M™ Tape 810. However, press conditions vary and proper evaluation using your specific conditions is critical and highly recommended for successful ink and ribbon adhesion.
