Direct thermal labels
Direct thermal labels are an economical solution for short-term labelling applications (up to 6 months), including shipping, freight, retail, hospitality, healthcare, warehousing and barcoding.
As direct thermal labels are sensitive to UV rays, heat and friction, they are best-suited to indoor conditions and are not recommended for exposure to direct sunlight.
BCP Media supply only the highest quality blank direct thermal label rolls, which are available in a range of sizes to suit all desktop and industrial label printers.
Printing direct thermal labels
Direct thermal printing utilises a temperature sensitive label material that darkens when heated by a thermal print head.
Advantages of direct thermal labels
- Ideal for a variety of short-term labelling applications lasting up to 6 months.
- Fast and accurate printing process creates quality labels at high volumes.
- Eliminates the need for ribbon, resulting in lower operational costs.
Thermal transfer labels
Thermal transfer labels produce a permanent print, delivering extra durability for long-life indoor (paper) or outdoor (synthetic) use.
Typical applications include product identification, inventory management, repairs tracking and medical records.
At BCP Media, we produce premium-quality thermal transfer labels in a variety of shapes and sizes, with custom solutions available to suit your labelling requirements.
Printing thermal transfer labels
Thermal transfer printers melt a heat-sensitive ribbon onto your label as it passes under the printhead. The ribbon’s ink is absorbed by the label, producing a permanent image. This long-lasting printing method can be used on a broad range of label materials, from paper to synthetic.
At BCP Media, we supply a full range of thermal transfer ribbons in a range of sizes, colours and compositions to suit your requirements.
Advantages of thermal transfer labels
- Extended lifespans make these labels ideal for long-term applications.
- Thermal transfer printing process achieves superior image resolution for barcodes, text and graphics at high speeds.
- Enhanced durability supports label integrity in harsh conditions, including exposure to direct sunlight, hazardous chemicals and industrial wear and tear.
