Cosmo Films expands its range of direct thermal printable products

The BOPP based top coated direct thermal printable film is water and solvent resistant and can be used for tough weather labeling such as deep freeze product labeling, industrial barcoding, track and trace, and logistics. The film can endure temperatures of -20 to 70 degrees C. A high temperature resistance variety with endurance level as high as 130 degrees C is also being offered. The product has been developed keeping meat packaging and carcass tagging applications in mind requiring relatively higher temperature process parameters.

Direct thermal printable paper is available in both top coated and uncoated varieties. Top coated variety would be well suited for applications requiring water resistance.

Kapil Anand, head at speciality labeling exports at Cosmo Films, said: ‘Direct thermal printing has been gaining significant prominence in recent times due to its ease of use, low total applied cost and optimum image density. We are glad that we can offer both paper and filmic solutions for a wide range of applications now being printed by this printing technology.’

The DTP product portfolio from Cosmo Films now includes standard DTP films, top coated DTP films, high temperatures DTP films and DTP paper.
