Thermal Transfer Ribbon
Resist+ T 555 Sw
Is a very sensitive resin quality that allows slightly higher printing speeds and can be printed with low energy – which is easy on the print head. It is suitable for flat-head and, to a limited extent, also for near-edge printers. First and foremost, foil materials can be printed in very good quality – to a limited extent, the quality can also be used for paper surfaces.
Resist+ / T 555 Sw can be used in the food sector and is approved for seawater-resistant GHS labelling on some label materials according to BS5609 section III.
The print has very good mechanical resistance. Its chemical resistance is the same as that of a standard resin grade, but it is worth mentioning that the print survives a few cycles when wiped with a Crockmeter, even when used with petrol, brake fluid and hydraulic oil.
The application area is the printing of robust product labels made of foil, e.g. in the chemical and food industry, but also the printing of type plates and durable markings.
