Virtual Graphics has introduced RevealPro, a chemical-free direct thermal film that images in existing thermal printers. RevealPrint technology, combined with a synthetic face stock, creates a material that has exceptional resistance to heat, cold, UV light, water, and most chemicals including alcohol. Its durability is comparable to thermal transfer BOPP labels and a wax/resin ribbon.
RevealPro is produced with fade-resistant pigments allowing it to last over 18 months outdoors and for years indoors. It allows for on-demand imaging in intense black or up to eight colors. It can be printed with traditional flexo inks as well as water-based inkjet inks.
RevealPro can be used for pressure-sensitive labels, tickets or tags and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications where weather, water, or chemical resistance is required.
