Features Of Heat Transfer Label

  •  


    A heat transfer label is a specific type of decoration, which is transferred from a carrier (transfer paper or foil) onto an object by the use of heat, pressure and/or adhesive. The carrier holds a release layer specific to the print process and the type of product to be decorated.


    Heat transfer labels are typically used to decorate all sorts of promotional items, such as pens, magnets, pen holders, soap dispensers or industrial products like plastic buckets, pails and cartridges. They can be applied to a variety of shapes and forms and, because they are so thin, brand owners can achieve a more exclusive “no-label” look.


    Conventional heat transfer labels are produced using direct offset or direct screen printing. However, these methods are limited in their capability of producing full color graphics. Other drawbacks of traditional methods include lower image quality, cost and time of prepress, and lack of flexibility.


    Digital heat transfer labels, which combine digital label print technology with heat transfer application processes, provide an alternative solution to customary decoration processes. Benefits include instant availability with no need for plates or screens; short to medium runs with optional personalization; and high resolution, wide gamut colors and opaque white undercoats. Digital toners also offer environmental benefits, as they do not use the volatile solvents of screen or gravure inks.
