The new line of inkjet print-receptive materials is under General Data’s Jet-Kote brand and includes both paper and film facestocks in matte, satin, semi-gloss and high gloss finishes. General Data said that they feature resistance to environmental conditions.   
 
It is suitable for full-color labels in short runs for applications including BS5609-certified GHS chemical drum labeling, product labeling, marketing and promotions.  
 
The Jet-Kote product line features low minimum order quantities. Since they are stocked products, they can be configured and shipped quickly. They have been tested with most dye and pigment-based inkjet label printers and inline inkjet printers for commercial presses.   
 
David Gustafson, marketing manager at General Data’s Coated Products Division, said: ‘The demand for digitally-printed labels continues to grow, due in large part to advancements in inkjet printing technology and the need for the flexibility of shorter press runs that are cost-effective and still deliver outstanding print quality. Our Jet-Kote line fills this need perfectly by providing converters high-quality inkjet-printable materials in a variety of different facestock and adhesive formulations with quantities and delivery times that enable them to capitalize on their investment in digital inkjet printing technology.’  
 
Jet-Kote materials are available in 20-inch and 60-inch master rolls.
