Features

  • 1.0 mil matte topcoated clear overlaminating polyester provides excellent clarity and label protection
  • This thin gauge film can also be used as a printable base film alternative to the standard 2.0 mil product
  • Matte topcoated film designed for cross-technology printability via impact, laser, electron beam, wax, resin and wax/resin thermal transfer (we recommend evaluating the intended ribbon and ink system for compatibility with the product under the application conditions)
  • Unique matte topcoat allows for greater than four times as many die revolutions before retooling compared with competing label materials
  • Topcoat provides excellent resistance to chemicals, moisture, smudging and scratching
  • Permanent pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive bonds well to base film substrates, as well as low-surface energy plastics, metal and powder-coated paint
  • Backed with an ultra smooth clear polyester release liner
