ARMOR-IIMAK partners can respond to market growing concerns with tangible ribbon environmental benefits. By investing in Thermal Transfer ribbon eco-design, ARMOR-IIMAK offers sustainable alternatives, allowing ribbon users to follow their sustainable development concerns
Thermal Transfer ribbons using less plastics
ARMOR-IIMAK is constantly pushing the boundaries of Thermal Transfer technology to improve the environmental impact of ribbons.
New-generation ribbons such as wax AWR XL are developed on 3.35µm PET film, which represents a direct 26% reduction in plastic waste compared with standard ribbons on the market, which use 4.5µm PET film.
For ARMOR-IIMAK, it’s not just a question of changing the thickness of the PET, but of rethinking the entire design and manufacturing process.
For the user, this means a significant reduction in the quantity of plastic waste, while optimizing management and processing time and costs.
What’s the Thermal Transfer environmental benefit?
For an application of 3,000 ribbons in 110 mm x 450 m configuration, replacing a standard ribbon with the AWR XL saves 240kg of plastic, equivalent to more than 8,000 plastic bottles.
With sustainability, durability, and reduced plastic usage at its core, Inkanto continues to set new benchmarks in thermal transfer ribbon innovation worldwide.
