U.S.-Based Brushfoil Expands Global Presence
Brushfoil’s wide range of capabilities includes the following:
• Brushed Films:
• Laminating films used to enhance the perceived value of hundreds of “on the shelf” items such as cosmetics, tobacco, toiletries, confections, pharmaceuticals, etc.
• Pressure sensitive labels facestock that provide a sleek, durable appearance. Frequently affixed to household appliances, brushed labels are used in factories, restaurants, offices and homes worldwide, and take the place of metal ID plates on everything from computers, garbage disposals, refrigerators, generators, forklift trucks, etc. These labels give the equipment a look that says quality, strength and endurance.
• ULTRA Series: Inks that are more exotic are now being used to achieve superior appearances. Standard chemically treated films aren’t versatile enough to handle some of these ink systems. The “ULTRA Series” of proprietary top-coated films are available as a clear or metallized film, in varieties of colors, in widths of up to 61½˝ of coated surface on a 62˝ web width. They also accept most of the UV inks, which have traditionally been a problem for label producers. The ULTRA Series films have extended to lamination, and its outstanding printable topcoat is available for all of Brushfoil’s brushed finishes.
• Heat Seal Tapes: For the many industries using cable, the color-coding, flexibility and insulation of the individual wires within a cable are essential. Our Heat Seal Tapes are made of a 22-gauge polyester film with our proprietary color coat, chemically engineered so the film will tightly stick to itself when wrapped around a wire. The tapes are available in any color and, at less than a ¼ mil in thickness, are adequately flexible and yet provide sufficient insulation to not interfere with other wires within the cable.
