IIMAK NEAR-EDGE THERMAL RIBBON

Family of Near-Edge Ribbon

NET Flex

NET Flex produces bolder, blacker imprints on a wide range of uncoated and top coated packaging films. Its unique anti-static formulation promotes sharp, crisp text, and reduces static discharge so packing lines can run at faster speeds. NET Flex is designed to perform at standard darkness settings for most coders so no printer adjustments are necessary. With print speeds up to 24 IPS, NET Flex is compatible with thermal transfer coders used for flexible packaging applications including snack, fresh produce, pharmaceutical, and others.
