Brady announces new ultra-durable black polyester labels

Brady, a global provider of industrial and safety printing systems and solutions, announced its new ultra-durable black polyester labels (B-8117). These labels achieve the black color through the adhesive layer rather than the topcoat, which results in more robust color permanence. Since the color is sealed inside the label construction, color durability is dramatically increased, making it less likely to lose the black appearance over time.

“Brady’s new durable black polyester labels are ideal for regulatory labels on electrical components, finished goods, automotive labels, general ID and asset tracking,” says Jennifer Smith, regional product manager for Brady. “They provide the resilience to stand up to industrial electrical environments and keep labels readable for improved efficiency and safety.”

The powerful combination of this material’s topcoat and the R6800 ribbon produce superior print durability against both abrasions and harsh fluids, as well as consistently achieves Barcode Grade B or greater.
