UPM Raflatac has announced the launch of a renewed labelstock portfolio for print-on-demand applications in the Americas. These high-performance inkjet and toner-based papers and films offer a variety of business advantages across a range of consumer, outdoor and industrial end-uses.
Toner-based solutions accelerate growth
Digital printing has opened up a world of opportunities but has also dramatically increased expectations in terms of quality, speed and cost-effectiveness for both global brand owners and small businesses. UPM Raflatac gaurantees its qualified toner-based labelstocks will deliver perfect print quality and stable printing behavior on several LED toner and dry toner digital printers. These print-on-demand products are ideal for health and beauty, wine and retail information labeling as well as small office/home office and industrial chemical applications.
New strategies with UV inkjet printing
An emerging digital printing technology, UV inkjet printing delivers fast speeds, good results and the ability to print on conventional materials. Designed for machines like the EFI Jetrion family, Durst, Domino and Mark Andy presses, UPM Raflatac’s new product offering for UV inkjet printing is ideal for short to medium-sized print runs in prime labeling end-uses, such as home and personal care, as well as targeted marketing campaigns and boutique labeling operations.
Water-resistant ink-jet films safeguard imagery
UPM Raflatac’s new Polyjet Clear and Polyjet Gloss White PP labelstocks are the closest options on the market to completely water-resistant inkjet films. When printed with water-based dye and pigmented inkjet inks, these products dry instantly on the press, safeguarding imagery and allowing companies to increase production and productivity. These uniquely-coated films are ideal for challenging end-uses ranging from wine, food, beverage and health and beauty labels to basic bar code production.
Exposure-proof performance with BS5609 products
Additionally, UPM Raflatac now offers a range of high-performance, durable VIP films that conform to sections two and three of the BS5609 standard for pressure sensitive labels applied to dangerous goods transported by sea, which includes requirements for sea immersion, dimensional stability, adhesion, artificial weathering, temperature cycling and color fastness. Also, several of these label stocks offer completely static-free performance.
“The products in our renewed print-on-demand line-up are designed for maximum flexibility, so we can help companies enhance their profitability and maximize their brand appeal, says Stacey MacNeil, VIP business director, Americas. “From toner-based solutions, to UV ink-jet options, to products for water-based dye and pigmented ink-jet printers – and even films that withstand the challenges of the sea – we truly offer something for everyone.”
