The ideal solution when a durable, long-lasting label is required. Perfectly suited to a variety of applications where a label’s integrity is critical such as asset tracking, specimen labelling, outdoor use or permanent product identification labels.

Our products > Labels > Thermal Transfer Labels

Thermal transfer labels are a type of label printed using a thermal transfer printer and a special ink-coated ribbon. Unlike direct thermal labels, which use heat-sensitive paper, thermal transfer technology works by melting the ink from a ribbon onto the label material.

We're your go-to provider for this type of label because, if you're at all unsure, we can guide you in the right direction. Plus, we offer superior print quality, material versatility, colour options and durability to withstand even the harshest conditions. Our high-density prints are resistant to fading, smudging, chemicals and abrasion.

How it works

The thermal printer's printhead heats the ribbon, transferring the ink onto the label to create the text, image, or barcode. The ribbon acts as the ink source and is consumed during the printing process.

Durability

The key benefit of thermal transfer labels is their exceptional durability. The printed image is highly resistant to fading, smudging, abrasion, chemicals, and extreme temperatures.

Longevity

Because the labels are not heat-sensitive, the print will remain clear and readable for a long period, often years, without fading in sunlight or other environmental conditions.

Applications

They are ideal for applications requiring a long-lasting label, such as asset tracking, laboratory specimen labels, permanent product identification, and outdoor labels that will be exposed to harsh conditions.

While they require the additional cost of a ribbon, their superior durability and longevity make them the preferred choice for applications where the label's integrity is critical over time.
