40 x 28mm Synthetic Waterproof Thermal Transfer Labels - 25mm Core, 1500/RollTough polypropylene 40 x 28mm labels on a 25mm core, 1500 per roll. Waterproof, tear-resistant and built to survive where paper labels fail.
These 40 x 28mm synthetic labels are made from durable polypropylene rather than paper, so they shrug off water, oils, chemicals, abrasion and temperature extremes while staying stuck and legible. Printed by thermal transfer with a resin or wax/resin ribbon, they suit outdoor, cold-store, industrial and washdown labelling where an ordinary label would tear, smudge or fall off. Supplied on a 25mm core, 1500 labels per roll, with a permanent adhesive.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these labels waterproof?
Yes. The synthetic polypropylene facestock is waterproof and tear-resistant, and with a resin or wax/resin ribbon the printed image is water and scratch-resistant too.
Do I need a special ribbon?
Yes. Print these on a thermal transfer printer using a resin or wax/resin ribbon. A plain wax ribbon or direct thermal printing will not hold up on synthetic stock.
Will they fit my printer?
They run on standard desktop and industrial thermal transfer printers (Zebra, TSC, Brother and similar) that accept a 25mm core and 40mm label width.
Can they be used outdoors or in a freezer?
Yes. With this adhesive and a resin ribbon they are suited to outdoor, marine, chemical and cold-store or freezer use.
