PolyTherm Extend

Durable Direct Thermal Film for Extended Outdoor Life

PolyTherm® Extend is engineered to deliver long‑lasting, UV‑resistant direct thermal performance for demanding environments where standard films fall short. Designed for outdoor logistics, horticulture, lumber tagging, and retail shelf labeling, it provides stable, scannable images lasting up to two years indoors and up to nine months outdoors, depending on conditions. With mobile print‑ready, ribbonless convenience, it requires no printer adjustments and maintains crisp print quality at speeds up to 10 ips.
 

Beyond longevity, PolyTherm® Extend offers enhanced resistance to oils, grease, solvents including acetone, PVC, and rubber, all while remaining BPA‑ and BPS‑free with no phenols added. It is compatible with UV and flexographic inks and provides heat resistance up to 90°C (194°F), making it an excellent choice for applications requiring durability and extended image life. For environments with high moisture exposure, OPVs are recommended for added protection.

    Smarter, Sustainable Linerless Label Solutions

    Appvion’s linerless label technologies provide a more efficient and sustainable alternative to traditional pressure‑sensitive labels by removing the release liner and the waste, weight, and disposal costs associated with it. This liner‑free design helps reduce environmental impact while supporting sustainability goals through lower material usage and less landfill contribution.

    Linerless formats are designed to improve operational efficiency with longer rolls, faster changeovers, and fewer line stoppages that help enhance productivity across labeling operations. Appvion offers a range of high‑performance solutions, including Résiste® LLE X, created to meet different application needs and performance requirements.
