HERMA PE transparent tc (861)

Application and use

Thanks to its special topcoat the glossy surface of HERMA PE transparent tc gives a good print quality in conventional printing processes like e.g. UV flexo printing.

ERMA PE transparent tc can be used to produce visually demanding, glossy, transparent labels. For recycling reasons these labels are preferably used on PE surfaces.

Thanks to the high flexibility of this material even curved surfaces and deformable packaging may be labelled without any problems.

In combination with our UV acrylic adhesive 62B the film complies with BS 5609/II (resistance to sea water) and is thus also suitable for labelling containers destined for transportation via sea route.
