UPM Raflatac expands textile labeling range

UPM Raflatac has expanded its product range for textile labeling with three white Silk Acetate faces, suitable for labeling a multitude of textile retail goods, from carpets and fabric to mattresses and shoes.

Printable with all conventional printing methods, Silk Acetate Whites are calendared ‘to provide a silky satin finish that lasts’, said the company in a statement. ‘Silk Acetate White Top is a fray-resistant material that provides the cleanest possible die-cut for an enduringly crisp label outline. The topcoat provides an excellent print result with conventional printing methods – especially beneficial for finer multicolor detail. Silk Acetate White TTR adds a good TTR printability for barcodes and other variable information. The heavier gauge also makes it well suited to larger labels where it holds its form and is easily applied by hand.’

The three faces are supplied with the RP 38 textile adhesive. For use on rough textiles, options for permanent adhesives cater for ‘almost all conceivable uses’.
