Product Overview
Resin thermal transfer ribbon is used for durable label applications that require clear barcode or QR-code printing together with stronger scratch, alcohol and gasoline resistance. The current product scope includes matte-silver PET, PVC, synthetic PP and semi-gloss paper, while the latest label-material information also supports evaluation with suitable PET and matte pure aluminum-foil label structures.

Label Materials for Evaluation
Item | Confirmed Information |
Synthetic PP label material | 80-200 micrometres; glossy or matte surface options |
PET label material | 25-100 micrometres; clear, white or matte-silver facestock |
PVC label material | 50-150 micrometres; glossy or matte finish |
Matte pure aluminum-foil label material | 75-90 GSM laminated structure with a print-receptive top coating |
Semi-gloss paper | Confirm coating, ribbon match and required resistance for the actual paper surface |
These figures describe the label-material ranges, not ribbon thickness. For a broader material comparison, read BOPP vs. PET vs. PVC vs. PE Labels. Each material and ribbon combination should be evaluated for the intended printer and use conditions.
Common Specification Options
Ribbon dimensions vary by printer and application. Confirm the printer model, ribbon dimensions, core, coating orientation, label material, print-resistance requirement and order quantity before production.
Item | Confirmed Information |
Common ribbon widths | Approximately 30-110 mm |
Common ribbon lengths | 74 m, 300 m and 450 m |
Common core references | 0.5 inch and 1 inch |
Coating orientation | Coated side in (CSI) or coated side out (CSO), depending on the printer |
Materials to confirm | PET, PVC, synthetic PP, semi-gloss paper or matte pure aluminum-foil label structure; provide surface finish and thickness/GSM |
Application Considerations
· Barcode and QR-code printing where clear definition is required.
· Durable PET, PVC or synthetic PP labels exposed to handling and abrasion.
· Matte-silver PET or matte pure aluminum-foil labels requiring compatible resin-based transfer.
· Applications requiring alcohol or gasoline resistance to be evaluated on the finished printed label.
Information Required for an Inquiry
· Printer brand, exact model and current ribbon reference.
· Label material, surface finish and thickness or GSM.
· Ribbon width, length, core and CSI/CSO orientation.
· Barcode, QR-code, text and resistance requirements.
· Sample, order quantity, packing requirement and destination market.

FAQ
Which label materials are listed for this resin ribbon?
Matte-silver PET, PVC, synthetic PP and semi-gloss paper are listed. Suitable PET and matte pure aluminum-foil structures can also be evaluated for resin-based thermal transfer printing.
Can it be evaluated for PET labels?
Yes. Clear, white and matte-silver PET label materials are within the current PET range, but the exact surface, thickness, printer and ribbon combination must be confirmed.
Do the micrometre and GSM values describe the ribbon?
No. They describe the corresponding label facestock or laminated label material. Ribbon dimensions are selected separately.
Why is sample testing recommended?
The final print and resistance result depends on the ribbon, label surface, printer, settings and actual use conditions.
