Resin Ribbon Price in Pakistan
A resin ribbon is the most durable thermal transfer ribbon, printing barcodes that resist chemicals, solvents, abrasion, and heat up to 120–170°C. In Pakistan, resin ribbons are used on PET, PVC, and polyester labels for garment care tags, electronics asset tags, and industrial labeling where the print must be effectively permanent.

Printing wash care labels for garments?
Resin ribbon on satin/taffeta, the only combination that survives repeated washing. See our wash care ribbon page.
Asset tags that must last years?
Resin on PET facestock. Scratch- and solvent-proof.
Just paper labels indoors?

Frequently Asked Questions
What is resin ribbon used for in Pakistan?
The two biggest uses are garment wash care labels for textile exporters and durable asset/serial tags on electronics, machinery, and automotive parts.
How heat resistant is a resin print?
A proper resin print on PET withstands 120–170°C depending on grade, plus solvents like IPA, petrol, and industrial cleaners. Far beyond wax or wax-resin.
Can resin ribbon print on paper labels?
Not well. Resin needs a smooth synthetic surface to bond. On paper, use wax or wax-resin instead.
