Are API Transfer Technologies transfer products recyclable?

In a study commissioned by the Foil and Specialty Effects Association (www.fsea.com), it was found that paper is 100% recyclable after transfer of our products. The use of transfer products does not cause any problems with deinking or pulping during the recycling process.

In the structure of Hot Stamping and Cold Transfer products, the aluminum metallisation on the transfer layer is extremely thin, and the coating thickness is often less than that of conventional inks. NO plastic residue remains on the substrate after hot stamping or Cold Transfer. Unlike laminating foils and metallic paper, our transfer products are easily recyclable.

The products of API Transfer Technologies have passed INGEDE's de-inking certification. After finishing with API Transfer's products, papers and boards can be easily de-inked during the remanufacturing process so that the fibers can be easily used for the production of new paper or board.
