Introducing 150LB PF, Ricoh’s Premium Tight Mandrel Labeling Solution

 

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA, July 26, 2024 – Ricoh Industrial Media Solutions, a global leader in thermal media technologies for over fifty years, proudly announces the launch of its latest breakthrough product, 150LB PF Direct Thermal Label Stock. This labeling solution is engineered specifically for the demanding requirements of laboratory and medical environments.

150LB PF is a top-coated direct thermal (DT) product designed for curved surface labeling applications. It boasts a 3.1mil, #40 flexible base paper, which enhances its mandrel-hold performance, ensuring that labels remain securely attached to objects such as test tubes and vials.

 

 

Key Features

 

  • Anti-Flagging Design: Ensures that the label stays firmly on mandrel objects, preventing peeling and promoting reliable adherence.
  • Glove Friendly: These labels will not stick to disposable gloves, thereby reducing waste and boosting operational efficiency, a significant advantage in medical and laboratory settings.
  • Repositionable: Label stock can be easily repositioned with minimal residue left behind, offering greater flexibility during application.
  • Phenol-Free: Completely free of all phenolic compounds, this label stock ensures safe handling and complies with all relevant legislative requirements.
  • Excellent Image Resolution: End users will benefit from outstanding barcode scannability and sharp image resolution, crucial for accurate data capture and readability.

 

“We are excited to introduce 150LB PF to our lineup of high-performance labeling solutions”, said Dylan Uboldi, Sales & Marketing Division Manager, Ricoh Industrial Media Solutions. “This product addresses the specific needs of the laboratory and medical sectors by providing a reliable, efficient, and safe labeling solution.”
