Direct thermal film labels have a heat sensitive coating on their face stock, which enables these products to be imaged with a barcode printer without the requirement of a ribbon. Among product type, top coated are premium range of labels with a smooth, sensitivity thermal coating. In case of non-top coated, a thermal coating is applied on a paper back stock.
The direct thermal film labels have a protective layer on their surface which leads to good quality resolution of graphics, text, and bar codes. Therefore, these advantages are expected to boost growth of the global direct thermal film label market during the forecast period.
Furthermore, these labels are resistant to water, oil, and offer a matte finish similar to paper, which helps in printing a sharp image on printing
However, factors such fading of labels due to sunlight are expected to hamper growth of the global direct thermal film labels market during the forecast period
