New from Lintec Graphic Films is Heatproof HP-CBR - an exteme high temperature, self-adhesive label product claimed to be capable of withstanding temperatures of up to 1,200ºC. It can also be variable data printed on-site, and is said to address a number of challenges faced by the ceramic, glass and metal production industries.
Lintec managing director Andy Voss states: "There was a great demand from our customers for a label that could not only withstand temperatures of up 1,200ºC, but one that could be supplied as blank label, printed on-site and applied with minimal fuss."
He says the pre-printed HP-CBR is a chemical proof, highly scratch resistant label that can effectively endure the harsh environments created during the manufacturing process. It can be produced in-house, enabling a stock management team to print labels in real-time in the factory via thermal transfer, then easily apply the self-adhesive product - removing the need for special heat activated adhesive.
The HP-CBR label is composed of an organic/inorganic complex with highly modified acrylic adhesive and backed with a paper release liner. Its high temperature and chemical resistance are complemented by "excellent printability of up 600dpi".
