Deep-Freeze 70gsm Matte Thermo Top – Extreme Cold-Chain Performance Our 70gsm Matte Thermo Top paper is a premium direct thermal material designed for high-definition, ribbon-free printing in demanding environments. The “Top” coating provides a critical barrier that protects the thermal image from moisture, condensation, fats, and oils, ensuring that barcodes remain 100% scannable from the freezer to the consumer.
This construction features a specialized Food-Safe Freeze Hotmelt Adhesive. Unlike standard hotmelts that can become brittle and lose adhesion in the cold, this formula is engineered to maintain a permanent, aggressive “bite” even when applied to already-frozen surfaces or stored in deep-freeze temperatures. Supported by a 58gsm Yellow FSC-certified glassine liner, it offers maximum operational efficiency and a commitment to sustainable sourcing.
Technology: Direct Thermal (No ribbon required).
Adhesive: Ultra-High Tack “Freeze” grade; bonds to frosted and chilled surfaces.
Surface: Matte, non-reflective Top-Coated thermal paper (BPA-free).
Sustainability: FSC®-certified liner for eco-conscious supply chains.
Key Performance Benefits
Frost-Penetrating Adhesion: The Freeze Hotmelt is chemically designed to remain “tacky” at temperatures where standard adhesives fail. It is the ideal choice for relabeling products already in cold storage or for application in unheated winter packing facilities.
Durable Thermal Imaging: The protective Top-coat prevents the “fading” or “blackening” often seen in standard thermal labels when exposed to the high humidity and condensation found in the cold chain.
Ribbon-Free Efficiency: Direct thermal printing simplifies your logistics by removing the need for ink ribbons, reducing inventory costs and speeding up roll changes on the production line.1
High-Visibility Dispensing: The yellow glassine liner provides superior visual and electronic contrast, ensuring flawless gap detection and label placement on high-speed automatic applicators.
Certified Safety & Sustainability: The adhesive is FDA/ISEGA compliant for indirect food contact, and the FSC-certified liner ensures the backing material is sourced from responsibly managed forests.
Ideal Market Applications
Deep-Frozen Foods: Labels for frozen meat, seafood, and ice cream packaging where labels must withstand extreme cold and moisture.
Laboratory & Healthcare: Tracking labels for samples, vaccines, and plasma stored in medical freezers or cryogenic units.
Cold-Storage Logistics: Pallet and inventory labeling in “Blast Freezer” environments where application temperatures are well below $0^\circ\text{C}$.
Fresh Produce: Labeling for items stored in high-humidity hydro-coolers or iced crates.
