THERMAL PRINT RIBBONS

Welcome to the Print Ribbon ("Thermal Transfer Ribbons")section of GMIT's website. Print Ribbons generally fall into four classifications; Grade 1 (Wax), Grade 2 (Mid-Range), Grade 3 (Resin) and Grade 5 (also a Resin+). Grade 1 (Resin Enhanced Wax) is great for all label face stocks made of paper, both coated and un-coated. Grade 2 (Mid-Ranges) performs well on synthetic label face stocks such as vinyls, polypropylenes..etc. Grade 3 (Resin) Print ribbons give higher temperature, chemical and abrasion resistance for use on synthetic labels. Grade 5 (Resin+) offers the highest temperature, chemical and abrasion resistance for use on synthetic labels. The difference between these grades is the durability, heat resistance, abrasion and chemical resistance.
