Super-Tough Polyester

DESCRIPTION

Our Super-Tough labels are constructed by printing on any of our 2-mil Polyesters then laminating with our 8-mil Polypropylene Laminate. The result is a substantial and extremely durable label with a non-glare finish that provides a 9 Year UV protection while providing excellent durability and toughness. All Super-Tough labels are supplied with our standard, Hi-Bond adhesive that was specifically formulated to provide superior bonding to powder-coat paint, low surface energy plastics and other hard-to-stick surfaces.

OPTIONS

Super-Tough labels will accept any of our printing Colors, and Barcodes, Serial Numbers, and Changeable Data information can be automatically included on any label. These labels can also be produced with ANY exterior shape, with ANY size and shape of internal cutouts, and with ANY size and shape of clear window areas for displays or indicator lights.

APPLICATIONS
