Sihl’s facestock assortment offers a new PET based film for aqueous inkjet printing. Due to its ultra thin nature, the transparent film can be used for labels, in particular for the pharmaceutical sector. 

The range offers high quality coated films with PET, OPP or PP bases for individualised self-adhesive applications, compatible with all common print technologies. Last year the market saw the introduction of the new 60 microns OPP label film, especially developed for aqueous, both dye and pigment, inkjet printing.

The latest innovation to join this product range is the P-23 transparent IHG1. The base material is a 23 microns PET which offers high colour reproduction and glossy, sharp prints, as well as an high resistance to water and efficient drying time. A further advantage of the ultra thin film is its very low rigidity, making it more than ideal for the inkjet printing of small labels, for example on hygiene products or medication.
