Application and use

The machine-finished surface of the HERMAwhite offers an excellent quality of the imprint with all conventional printing methods. The material is equally suitable for thermal transfer printing and is thus universally applicable. It is also perfect for laser printers.

The pulp for this paper comes from FSC certified forest management and other controlled sources.

Adhesive 62A is a universally applicable permanent adhesive with excellent adhesion properties on various surfaces. It features very high adhesion on both polar and nonpolar (PE) surfaces. The adhesive is suitable for autoclave sterilisation, preferably in combination with vellum paper. The adhesive is highly water proof and particularly resistant to light, heat and ageing.

The supercalendered glassine is perfectly suited for assignment in labelling machines equipped with optical or mechanical scanners.

Thanks to its aggressive adhesive characteristics adhesive 63B is particularly suitable for critical surfaces such as cardboard and ampoules. The adhesive is highly water-resistant and is suitable for labelling cold and humid surfaces. It is extremely resistant to light, heat and ageing.
