Thermal-transfer foils product line

For printing paper labels that need only limited smear- and scratch-resistance, choose wax-based thermal-transfer ink ribbons. Even at high print volumes, they deliver sharp-edged results with high optical density so that printed barcodes are easy to read. Wax ribbons are suitable for all conventional flat-head printers and are especially cost-efficient.

When printing needs call for greater resistance to smearing and scratching, the choice is thermal-transfer foils on a wax-resin base. They are used on paper and plastics for sharp-edged and detailed results, such as easy-to-read and smear-resistant barcodes.
Wax-resin ribbons are also known as premium ribbons or mix grades, and they run in all conventional flat-head printers. KURZ has wax-resin ribbons in many colors, and we also offer them in metalized gold and silver hues. We will gladly create special colors for you.

Thermal-transfer ink ribbons on a synthetic-resin base are the best choice for print that must withstand extreme demands. Aggressive substances that could make print unreadable don't stand a chance. Resin ribbons are used on plastic surfaces. They are compatible with all conventional flat-head printers and have high covering capacity and very sharp edges.

As well as the usual black, KURZ offers resin ribbons in many colors and in several metalized hues. And if you need a specific color, we can create that, too.

Print jobs for near-edge printers can only be performed with near-edge ribbons. Paper and plastic labels and flexible packaging foils are among the substrates that can be printed with near-edge ribbons.

There are also near-edge ribbons with resin and wax-resin bases. They deliver best results at high speeds and high print volumes. We offer near-edge ribbons in black and in many standard and special colors.

Most companies choose black when printing their labels. That's too bad, because thermal-transfer ink ribbons are available in many bright colors, some even with a real metal coating in gold and silver. Ink thermal-transfer ribbons give your products a personal touch; for instance by incorporating your corporate color.
