Ribbons

Wax Ribbon

Wax is the softest ribbon making it more vulnerable to smudging and scratching.

Wax ribbons are ideal for general labelling such as address labels, shipping labels, mailing labels, product labels, warehouse labels, price tickets and retail labels.

Wax/Resin Ribbon

A wax resin ribbon combination makes the printing smear and smudge resistant. It is the preferred choice for paper labels and the choice for synthetic labels that do not need to resist chemicals or extreme temperatures. Wax resin print can rub off many synthetic labels.

Resin Ribbon

Resin ribbon is the hardest ribbon type; it is scratch and chemical resistant. Resin is the ideal for printing synthetic/plastic labels going into harsh environments where print needs to be resistant against smearing, scratching, moisture (waterproof), abrasion, extreme temperature or chemicals.

Ribbons are available in various lengths and on different core sizes, below are just a couple of basic options. Please contact us for a more detailed quote
