Applications
  • POS & Fax

    Excellent printability, long shelf life and very good runnability in thermal printers predestine FJORD PRINT® grades for POS and fax applications. Our particularly light and thin as well as our phenol-free grades are in particular demand in the POS sector.

  • Medicine

    In medicine, important measurement results must be reproduced accurately and the paper used must be durable. FJORD PRINT® grades are convincing due to their extreme durability, perfect print head behaviour, excellent print results and their suitability for particularly fast printers.

  • Lottery & Betting

    Our thermal papers for lotteries & betting games meet many requirements. High dynamic sensitivity, best pre-printability, optimum resistance and reliable security are essential. After all, the ticket is perhaps the entrance to the world of big prizes.
     

  • Transport

    Whether boarding pass, train ticket or parking ticket - FJORD PRINT® grades are used throughout the transport industry because of their excellent stampability, print image stability, durability and printability. Also in mobile printing. Security features already incorporated at the factory ensure maximum protection against forgery.
     

  • Admission tickets

    Our papers for the mostly colourfully printed admission tickets are of the highest quality. Excellent front and back printability as well as extreme stability and durability are crucial. Security features integrated into the base paper provide maximum protection against counterfeiting.
     

  • Bank

    High-quality, stable and extremely durable thermal papers are required for use in ATMs, multifunction terminals and statement printers. Our papers have been subjected to a wide range of tests and are approved by OEMs for use in numerous systems.
     

  • Security

    Thermal paper is a special paper that can only be copied with great effort in its composition anyway. Our security elements such as coloured centres, line marks or fluorescent fibres are integrated into the base paper. This makes the paper virtually forgery-proof. A decisive argument in many applications.

Technology

Direct thermal printing is a non-contact printing process using heat transfer. The many small heating elements in the thermal print head are mounted across the entire width of the print head. Therefore, a thermal printer has few moving parts and is particularly low-maintenance. The heating elements transfer heat selectively to the thermal paper. There, the functional layer of the thermal paper reacts with a colouring - the print graphic is created.

 

Additional topcoats on the front and back can protect the thermal coating against environmental influences and optimise the product properties with regard to specific requirements such as printability, lamination, durability, etc. Of course, graphics and barcodes of any kind can be printed in addition to text. Simple, reliable and fast.



Advantages of thermal printing:
 

  • quiet
  • reliable
  • fast
  • easy handling
  • low operating costs (low maintenance and energy saving)
  • no other consumables, such as toner or ink
  • compact printing unit, therefore particularly suitable for portable hand-held devices
  • can also be used under extreme climatic conditions
