Competitive thermal labelstock

17 October 2011


Retail Eco SWP (Self-service Weigh-Price) from UPM Raflatac is a new direct thermal labelstock for self-service scales, “streamlined to minimize costs as well as reduce the environmental load”.

The new direct thermal paper is said to offer optimal sensitivity for even the latest weigh-price scales, “ensuring a crisp image for scanning at the cash register”. Its specially adapted RH R5 hotmelt adhesive has exactly the required performance on PE bags used for fruits and vegetables usually labelled by hand at room temperature.

RH R5 also has the necessary approvals for indirect food contact. Compared with the commonly used HG65, the new HG45 honey glassine backing is 20% thinner yet has excellent performance in self-service weigh-price applications, states UPM.
