Application and use
Due to its special coat the glossy surface of HERMA PP white tc offers an excellent print quality in all conventional printing methods.
The primer on the back ensures perfect anchorage of the adhesive. In combination with the appropriate adhesive, this product is perfect for applications where the removability of the label is required.
This film is not intended for use in unprinted zigzag applications, in which the coated print surface is in contact with itself.
HERMA PP white tc suits perfectly for the production of optically superior glossy, non-transparent labels. For recycling reasons these labels are preferably used on PP surfaces.
This material is particularly suitable for the labelling of cosmetics, toiletries and household chemicals, where durability and resistance to weathering, moisture and chemicals is required. It will also function well in delamination processes.
