Hot Transfer Product - Metallic
Over Printable
CBH-Grade
Over-printable metallic hot stamping transfer product
CBH exhibits excellent over-printability characteristics, making it ideally suited to those applications, such as luxury packaging and labels, which demand good adhesion of inks onto metallic transfer finishing.
Key Features
The CBH grade is a medium release metallic transfer product that gives good large area coverage and fine detail. CBH has good gloss and is specifically designed to be over-printed with UV curing, conventional drying and water-based inks and coatings providing excellent adhesion. This enables designers and printers to create eye-catching images and multi-coloured metallic effects.
Key specifications for hot stamping
Designed for use on a wide range of hot stamping machines, with typical operating temperatures:
Vertical, platen and clam-shell machines: 90°C - 130°C
