DataLase expands high humidity coatings range

Following on from the release of their water based flexographic (WBF) high humidity coating aimed at paper and corrugated printing industries where high humidity is a factor in post-print processes, DataLase, has launched three additional coatings to expand the offering.

The new coating, WBF-7101, offers a high contrast white-to-black colour change with a standard level of rub resistance and can be used for case coding applications in high humidity areas. Ideal for a variety of applications including food & beverage and e-commerce on either brown or white paper and board substrates. In addition, DataLase are launching high rub resistance variations; WBF-HR-7100 (clear-to-black colour change), and WBF-HR-7101 (white-to-black colour change) – which are designed specifically for supply chain resilience, therefore ideally suited for industrial, construction or logistical applications.

The coating formulations have been optimised to provide product stability and excellent flow properties in geographical areas where high humidity is present. Used in combination with an appropriate CO₂ laser marking system, DataLase WBF High Humidity Coatings deliver important sustainability benefits, by eliminating label backing waste and/or hazardous ink disposal from supply chains. Designed to be heat, moisture, scuff and high rub resistant, the coatings provide a stable image density that does not deteriorate.
