Thermal Transfer Ribbons: Wax/Resin and Resin

Thermal transfer ribbons are a critical component in many industrial printing applications. These ribbons (also known as foils), are used in conjunction with thermal transfer printers, which enable high-quality printing on a variety of materials. The ribbons contain ink typically made of wax, resin, or a combination of both. That is then transferred to the printing surface (such as your paper labels, synthetic materials, or ribbon) via heat from the thermal print head. Choosing the right thermal transfer ribbon is crucial for ensuring the quality and durability of your printed materials. Whether you need to print satin ribbons, die cut labels, or safety information stickers, we have a thermal transfer ribbon that meets your needs.

Please Note: The thermal transfer ribbons that we supply are spooled to a length of 50 metres and the foil core is 0.5” diameter. They are supplied with the spare core for the waste foil to go onto.

Here are some examples of applications you might use thermal transfer ribbons for:

 

  • Barcodes and QR Codes: Ensuring precise and scannable codes for inventory management, shipping, and product identification.

  • Product Labels: Used on products across various industries for branding, ingredient listing, and compliance with regulations.

  • Asset Tags: Durable labels for tracking and managing company assets.

  • Shipping and Logistics: Printing labels for packaging, pallets, and cartons to facilitate tracking and handling.

  • Healthcare and Laboratory: Labels for patient identification, specimen tracking, and pharmaceutical packaging.

  • Retail: Pricing labels, shelf tags, and promotional labels.

  • Industrial: Labels that need to withstand harsh conditions, including high temperatures, chemicals, and abrasion.
