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.

The novel adhesive 82S is a permanent, water-activatable adhesive. It has been specially developed for applications on cardboard and comparable paper-like substrates. It is therfore particularly suitable for use in the logistics sector, e.g. as a shipping label and for marking on absorbent substrates.In combination with suitable dispensing equipment, typical labelling speeds of the print-and-apply sector can be achieved.

Processing

Can be processed on common printing and slitting machines.
Pre-tests should be carried out for water-based primers.
