Thermal Transfer Ribbons

Adazon offers a variety of barcode ribbons to fit your business’ needs. These thermal transfer ribbons are used in thermal printers to transfer printed data such as bar codes, expiration dates, product numbers or logos to the thermal transfer label. With thermal transfer printing, a hot printhead melts the ribbon material onto the substrate. This printing method is reliable, making it ideal for a variety of applications including product packaging and shipping labels.

Choosing high-quality thermal transfer ribbon is crucial for preserving the life of your printer and printhead. It will also ensure that your barcode is able to withstand various environments, stick to various substrates and remain legible over time so that you can properly update inventory, track products, identify materials and improve security

We offer flexible packaging, wax, resin and wax-resin thermal transfer ribbons for your unique needs. Our variety of barcode ribbons include colors ranging from red, blue, magenta, yellow, gray, orange, green, and more, with varying tones and intensities in the color spectrum. In addition, our ribbons are compatible with multiple brands of printers as well, so whether you have a Zebra, Datamax, or other printer, we have you covered.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT THERMAL TRANSFER RIBBON

Selecting the correct thermal transfer barcode ribbon for your application is important to ensure that your product data remains clearly legible over time. As we mentioned above, there are several types of barcode ribbon to choose from including wax, resin, wax-resin and flexible packaging barcode ribbons.

WAX RIBBONS

Wax ribbons are great for use on products that aren’t exposed to harsh environmental changes or shipping environments and can be printed on most common surfaces. These ribbons produce high-quality results that are easily transferable to coated and non-coated thermal transfer labels.

WAX-RESIN RIBBONS

Wax-resin thermal ribbons are ideal for use on products that are exposed to harsh conditions, handled roughly or scanned multiple times. These ribbons are a cost-efficient industrial labeling solution as they provide a long-lasting image at a lower cost than full resin ribbons.

RESIN RIBBON

Resin ribbon is ideal for critical applications where the image will be exposed to extremely harsh conditions such as heat, chemical washdowns, dust, oils and grease. The amount of resin present in the thermal transfer ribbon will vary depending on the application requirements. Refer to the UL specifications to find the resin ribbon for your unique application. We’re also happy to help guide you in the right direction.

FLEXIBLE PACKAGING

These ribbons offer clear imaging and work with a variety of printers. We offer a variety of colors and sizes so you can find the perfect flexible packaging thermal transfer ribbon for your unique needs.
