Application and use
The glossy surface of HERMA rPE white (855) with its corona pretreatment on one side offers an excellent print quality in conventional printing techniques. Before printing we recommend to freshen up the corona pretreatment. This recycled film contains gel particles. These depend on the quality of the recyclates from the post consumer recyclate (PCR) collection and can thus vary. Depending on the size and shape of the gel particles, there may be variations in ink acceptance. It may therefore be necessary to adjust the printing and die-cutting.This recycled film is also suitable for thermal transfer printing. Pre-testing is recommended. HERMA rPE white (855) is perfect for the production of optically pretentious, glossy, non-transparent labels. For recycling reasons these labels are preferably used on PE surfaces. The special look of HERMA rPE white (855) underlines its recycling design. Thanks to the high flexibility of this material even curved surfaces may be labelled without any problems.
