Polyart HS, for high strength tags

Polyart HS and HS 2C

have specially been developed for applications which need high strength like tracking, nursery tags, industrial tags…

Polyart HS is uncoated; Polyart HS 2C is coated on both sides for higher printability.

Main features and benefits:

Extreme performance 

  • High tear resistance and tensile strength : 50% higher tear strength than standard Polyart.
  • No machine direction.
  • Resistant to water, grease and many chemicals.
  • Endures temperatures from -76° F / to 140°F.

Easy to print and convert:

  • Narrow web: Flexo, UV litho & letterpress, Gravure.
  • Digital: UV inkjet, Xeikon ICE and with a proper primer, HP indigo.
  • Polyart HS is antistatic and corona treated on both sides (will last over 1 year).
  • Polyart HS2C has a high printability, including in TTR, with a wide range of ribbons.
  • Clean tear with perfs (always initiate tear on edge).

Cost Advantage:

  • Polyart HS is uncoated, and a cost effective solution for high performance tags and labels.

Polyart HS is an ideal substrate for mono-component packaging
