Spinnaker adds three vinyl products

3.5mm TC White Laser Vinyl (#45853) is paired with PRM-550, an aggressive emulsion acrylic adhesive appropriate for indoor and outdoor labeling. Laser Vinyl Drum Label (#45115) is stocked with PDL-09, a cold temperature emulsion acrylic adhesive with excellent properties for drum labels. This construction has received BS5609 Part 2 approval. Both items are used for chemical labels, drum labels, bumper stickers, point-of-sale displays, window graphics, indoor and outdoor signage, placards, parking pass decals and product ID labels.

3.5mm TC White Laser Vinyl is available with RSM-92, a removable adhesive option (#45854), for indoor and outdoor labels, shelves, placards, temporary chemical labels, as an alternative to static cling, and for use on ridged plastics, films, painted metal, and polypropylene containers.

All three vinyl constructions are available Trimless with a minimum of one 3in x 5,000ft roll, which coordinates well with the short-run nature of the digital market, the supplier said.

Spinnaker Coating said vinyl offers customers durability, and the three new facestocks have: 12-month outdoor life guarantees; offer excellent tear, moisture and chemical resistance; have high conformability and flexibility; are phthalate and cadmium free; and pass CPSIA regulations. A 72# liner also gives these constructions layflat properties.

Julie Billing, roll product manager at Spinnaker Coating, said: ‘The addition of these vinyl products strengthens our overall digital portfolio, which has been increasing steadily this year with water-based ink jet products as well as other existing Spinnaker constructions that are now approved by OEMs on their digital equipment.’ Spinnaker Coating recently introduced a portfolio of products tested and approved by Screen Americas for use on the Truepress Jet L350UV inkjet digital label press.

‘The industry has been using vinyl products for years,’ added Billing. ‘We are excited to also now offer these vinyl products in our digital line. The fact that they are a more environmentally friendly alternative than some vinyl products currently available is a key attribute for end users.’
