Applications of Heat Transfer Labels on Plastic

How Heat Transfer Labels Work on Plastic

Our heat transfer process involves a carrier film pre-printed with your custom artwork. Using heat and pressure, the image is permanently transferred onto the plastic surface, leaving no residue or film behind — just a clean, high-resolution image that looks like it’s part of the product itself.

Heat Transfer Label for Recycled and PCR Plastic

Branding and decorating recycled plastics can pose significant challenges - recycled plastic material is not always consistent from batch to batch due to the nature of the recycling process. To solve this problem, ITW Graphics has developed a proprietary ink formulation specifically for PCR plastics (up to 100% PCR plastic). Manufacturers opting to move away from single-use plastic to recycled and/or reusable and refillable packaging can be confident that ITW Graphics’ heat transfer label solution for 100% PCR plastic will not compromise on quality or durability.
