Armor launches wax ribbon

Armor has launched a wax ribbon for flat head printers, known as AWX FH. The new grade complements the French thermal transfer specialist's existing range, with products such as AWR470 wax, APR6 wax/resin and AXR7 resin products.

AWX FH is a versatile resin-enhanced wax ribbon that Armor claims gives 'outstanding print quality and durability' on a wide range of label materials. Compatible with all barcode flat head printers, it can print sharp barcodes, at a dense blackness, with a high level of smudge resistance.

AWX FH is also said to fulfill the needs of various applications in the logistics market and to be suited to printing garment tags for the retail market. Armor says it is also suitable for the pharmaceutical industry as it offers an economical printing solution with the critical need of long-term readability of the label.

Produced under ISO9001 standards, AWX FH benefits from Armor's strong quality and sustainable development culture, ensuring that rolls are produced in ethical conditions with a minimum impact on the environment. Also, like other ribbons in the range, AWX FH is compliant to the major regulations concerning thermal transfer ribbons, including Reach and RoHS.
