Print ribbons are essential for sharp and durable printing of labels and tags. Depending on the label material and application, you choose the right ribbon type: from wax for paper labels to resin for plastic labels in demanding conditions.
Thermal transfer ribbons are available in various ribbon types, each tailored for a specific use and label material. Whether you want to print paper logistics labels, synthetic production labels, or durable identification labels: with the right ribbon, you will always achieve optimal results.
Wax printing ribbons for paper and rough plastics
Wax print ribbons are the most commonly used type of ribbon and offer an excellent price-quality ratio for applications on paper labels, MC Coat, Monotex, and Tyvek. The printing is medium smudge-resistant, making it suitable for normal use, handling, and processing. Ideal for product identification, logistics labels, shelf labels, horticultural labels, and temporary process information.
Wax/resin print ribbons for paper and plastic
Wax/resin ribbons combine broad material compatibility with a smudge-resistant print. They are suitable for paper labels, MC Coat, PE and PP labels, and Duraflex material, making them a flexible choice for companies that work with multiple label types within a single production or logistics process. Available for both Flathead and Near-Edge printers.
Resin print ribbons for demanding applications
Resin ribbons provide the highest level of durability and are the right choice when labels are exposed to friction, moisture, higher temperatures, or contact with solvents. They are suitable for plastic label materials and are used for technical labels, chemical applications, pharmaceutical labels, industrial identification, and product coding. Available for Flathead and Near-Edge printers.
Flathead of Near-Edge: which ribbon fits your printer?
The choice of the right ribbon depends not only on the label material but also on the type of print head of your printer. Printers with a Flathead print head use a different ribbon type than printers with a Near-Edge print head. Always check the type of print head of your printer before selecting a ribbon.
