Transparent Labels (Clear Labels) are labels that allow light to pass through so that prints can be seen clearly
Transparent Labels (Clear Labels)
UV Printing (Ultraviolet Printing)
UV Printing (Ultraviolet Printing) is a printing process that uses ultraviolet curing inks that dry quickly when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light
UV Resistance
UV Resistance is the resistance level of label or ink to intense sunlight exposure or ultraviolet radiation
Variable Data Printing
Variable Data Printing can be in the form of variable text, barcodes, and sequential numbers that are commonly used in warehouses, distribution, shipments, and tracking
Varnish
Varnishes are clear coatings used to protect a label. They cost less than laminates and UV coatings but are the least durable. Varnishes are available in gloss and matt and can be applied to the whole label (flood varnish) or only certain parts of the label (spot coating) to create interesting visual effects.
UV coatings cure during printing by exposure to ultraviolet light. UV coatings tend to be more durable and have a high-quality gloss finish.
Vector
Vector are prints that are initially created through outlines and filled in by spots before printing
Vinyl Labels
Vinyl labels are synthetic plastic material made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC). They are known for their durability, flexibility, and resistance to various environmental factors.
They are often used for a wide range of applications, including:
- Outdoor Labels: Vinyl labels are weather-resistant and can withstand exposure to sunlight, rain, and extreme temperatures. This makes them suitable for outdoor applications, such as on vehicles, signs, and equipment.
- Decals: Vinyl is commonly used for creating decals for vehicles, windows, and various surfaces. Vinyl decals can be designed in various shapes, sizes, and colours.
Wax Thermal Ribbons
Wax Thermal Ribbons are recommended for general purpose printing on coated or uncoated paper stocks. It has a low melting point making it suitable for high-speed printing. . But because this is the softest material, it has a tendency to smudge or rub-off when exposed to heat or friction. Wax ribbons tend to not print well on high-gloss substrates.
Wax-Resin Thermal Ribbon
Wax-Resin Thermal Ribbons produce excellent print quality on coated or glossy labels (paper and synthetic). This type of ribbon contains resin which makes it more durable than wax thermal ribbons. Although more expensive, it provides longer usage and has better anti-smudge resistance.
Wide Format Printing
Wide Format Printing is a process that involves either feeding paper rolls into the printer or the flatbed slides under the print head
