The Solution to Applications in Harsh Environments

Durable printable labels offer a robust and versatile identification solution for applications. Consequently, they play a critical role within manufacturing and similar harsh environments, enabling components to be identified, tracked and traced through each tier of the supply chain and printed on-site. For example, they are an ideal choice for identifying safety equipment and providing information and certification notices.

As with any printing papers, PaperTyger printing papers should be allowed to become fully acclimated to pressroom conditions before attempting to use them. PaperTyger papers are manufactured to a relative humidity of 42-50% @ 72°F / 22°C.

As relative humidity is a function of temperature, the first step is to be sure paper reaches the temperature of the pressroom before opening any packages, cartons, or skids. Use this paper conditioning chart as a guideline for how long, e.g. cold paper might need to reach the temperature inside the pressroom.

“Synthetic Papers” are referred to as that because they’re plastic. PaperTyger durable papers, on the other hand, are manufactured with real coated and uncoated papers, providing the toughness of a synthetic sheet with benefits. Discover how they compare.

PaperTyger durable papers perform well with guillotining, slitting, die-cutting, hole punching, drilling, perforating, folding, gluing, bonding, sewing, grommeting, foil stamp or embossing.
