Two pressure sensitive label materials from the Fasson Roll North America division of Avery Dennison have been qualified for use in the Epson SecurColor printer for printing in healthcare applications.

‘We're pleased Epson has qualified the use of these Fasson pressure-sensitive grades for its SecurColor inkjet printers,’ said Gary Deans, technical marketing manager, Fasson Roll North America. ‘Healthcare environments are highly specialized and demanding. Choosing the right label material is as critical for patient safety as it is for clinical operations.’

The first product is Fasson Matte White Inkjet Medical Film: an opaque-white matte finish, designed for tight mandrel applications one-half inch diameter or greater. It is solvent resistant, tested for autoclave conditions, and suitable for refrigerated and frozen conditions. It is water resistant and glove-friendly.
