Thermal Eco paper is coated with a special heat-sensitive layer, which darkens when heated therefore the printing does not require a wax ribbon, so the printing process itself is simpler. Because labels made from this raw material lose their properties when exposed to high temperatures, UV rays and mechanical wear, they are most commonly used for general purpose information labels for short-term use. The main advantages of these labels are a simple work process and the possibility to use them in portable and compact printers.
