Flexographic Printing
Flexo, or flexographic printing, is a printing process that uses a flexible relief plate. Ink is transferred from a roller onto this onto the plate, which then transfers ink onto the label surface.
Thermal Printing
Thermal printing is a process through which an image is created using a heated print head. There are two types of thermal printing: thremal direct and thermal transfer. Thermal direct uses heat-sensitive paper alongside a thremal print head to create an image directly upon a label surface. Thermal transfer uses a heat-sensitive ribbon and a thermal print head to transfer ink to a label surface, creating an image on its surface.
