Durability

Durability before and after thermal printing

In general, we guarantee that our thermal papers can be stored under the storage conditions described below for a period of 10 years before use. Their archivability after thermal printing is influenced by a range of environmental factors like exposure to light, temperature and humidity. Contact with oils, fats, chemicals or water may also have a negative impact on the thermal image. Details of the archivability and durability of the individual grades are provided in our Product Finder.

Storage

Our thermal papers should be stored at a constant temperature of 23 ± 5 °C and a relative humidity of 50 ± 10 %. Exposure to strong sunlight or strong artificial light or the influence of aggressive chemicals should be avoided.
