Application and use

Thanks to its special treatment the matt surface of HERMA PETP transparent matt laser offers an excellent print quality in screen, letterpress and flexo printing.

The film may also be printed with laser printers and it is possible to write on the film with ballpoint pens, pencils etc.

HERMA PETP transparent matt laser suits perfectly for production of labels that have to be resistant to high temperature and moist environment (e.g. type plates).

Adhesive 42N is suitable for applications requiring medium tack combined with good removability. It is particularly suited for labelling surfaces like cardboard, PE-Films and steel. Removability may be impaired if applied on certain surface coated materials.Adhesive 42N features excellent resistance to light, heat and ageing.

Typical areas of application for this coated kraft liner are computer labels for laser printers (continuous or sheet stock), which require higher stiffness and excellent stay-flat characteristics.

Processing

Excellent die-cutting characteristics on all customary machines. As part of a self-adhesive compound HERMA KW (511) offers excellent die-cutting characteristics with all customary flatbed and rotary die-cutting tools.

Storage conditions

Storing at a temperature of 20 ± 5 °C, a relative humidity of 45 ± 5 % and a dark storage is recommended. Moisture, heat and direct sunlight have to be avoided.

The shelf life is one year from date of production.

Regulations concerning contact with food

The pressure-sensitive adhesive 42N can be safely used for the back coating of labels for the labelling of foodstuffs for storage at room temperature and below. It may be used in direct contact with dry, moist and fatty foodstuffs in accordance with Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011. (Declaration of no objection valid until 11.09.2026)
