Print Confident. Print Quality. Print Zebra.

Printing supplies can impact everything from printhead lifespan to operational efficiency. That’s why we design, produce and rigorously pre-test our own line of thermal printing supplies to ensure consistent, optimized performance. We utilize an ISO 9001 certified, 23-point inspection process and consistent materials to ensure reliable performance from order-to-order. No matter when you order your labels, you can count on the same consistent performance.

Moisture and tear resistant

The polypropylene facesheet will not break down when subjected to moisture. In addition, the material is tear-resistant, which is beneficial for applications requiring the removal of the entire label for replacement with a new label, such as with reusable totes, crates, shelving and more.

Optimized for use with food products and in cold environments

With its all-temperature permanent acrylic adhesive, these labels can be securely applied in temperatures as low as -40°F/-40° C and will remain adhered in temperatures of -65°F to 131°F/-54°C to 55°C, making them perfect for use on assets in cold environments. The adhesive meets FDA 175.105 for indirect food contact and can be applied to shrink wrap and other food packaging.

Customized for your application

Zebra can deliver PolyPro 4000D labels in just about any size, shape or label set configuration to meet the requirements of your application and process. In addition, our flexographic print presses can add pre-printed text, graphics and color.

Footnotes

1. When the label is applied, the environment and surface should be above this temperature.
2. Following correct application and appropriate dwell time (usually 24hrs) the media will withstand this temperature range.
3. Attraction between adhesive and surface is so great that the facestock rips.
4. Following correct application and appropriate dwell time (usually 24hrs) we expect, but do not warrant, a life span as indicated.
