FLEXcon® DPM Aply® with Air Egress Liner is a series of durable labelling products with air-egress channels in the adhesive imparted by the liner to facilitate smooth bubble-free label application on challenging surfaces such as moulded plastics and powder-coated paints.
This innovative combination of FLEXcon’s durable labelling and nameplate films, including vinyls, polypropylenes and polyesters, with a high-performance permanent solvent-based acrylic adhesive, and a high-performance air-egress liner design, yields high performing narrow-format industrial and durable labelling solutions.
DPM Aply® products are designed for narrow-format brand identification labels/nameplates and safety/hazard/instructional labels for consumer durables, automotive, and industrial applications. Four of the six products are UL-recognised and easily adoptable into print providers’ UL files. Flat UL adoption fees are reimbursable via FLEXcon’s UL Adoption Programme.
Benefits:
• Easy application without bubbles. The embossed liner creates air egress channels in the adhesive that eliminate bubbles, wrinkles, and rework, yielding a superior appearance.
• Smoother appearance. Lower depth of air-egress channels compared to competitive products translates into a smoother label appearance, especially with silver polyester.
• Outdoor durability. Vinyl and polypropylene films provide five-year exterior durability based on 2500 hours Xenon Arc for meeting long-term durable label needs. Polyesters provide two years.
• Excellent adhesion. Industry-proven acrylic adhesive bonds well to low and high-surface energy plastics, painted metal, powder-coated paint, polycarbonate, and fibreglass with no label lift.
• No curling on press. The layflat 40kg (90 lb.) air egress liner provides optimal converting performance, ideal for roll-to-sheet and sheet-form converting for narrow-format digital printing applications.
• Sustainability. Durable polypropylene options enable printers and end users to meet sustainability goals without sacrificing performance.
