RIBBON TYPES & APPLICATIONS FOR THE LIVESTOCK INDUSTRY
Ensure print durability in harsh environment
Once placed on the animal, ear tags are subject to significant external attack which may compromise the identification of the animal and undermine herd management: long-term UV exposure, temperature extremes, frost and rain, contact with excrement, sweat, abrasion, etc.
The print technology and the ink must offer an adequate level of resistance in line with the animal’s living environment.
inkanto ribbons for livestock marking
The resin inks used in inkanto ribbons (AXR® range) are compatible with the plastic print media typically used to mark livestock. The excellent coverage of the black ink enables large-format letters and figures to be printed which can be read without having to get close to the animal. Resin inks also offer the highest levels of resistance and durability of all the ARMOR ranges.
All the inkanto Thermal Transfer inks are suitable for food contact applications (1935/2004/EC and US FDA standards) and are non-hazardous to animal health.
