Appvion introduces Triumph Digital Media

Appvion has expanded its line of Triumph brand products with the introduction of four digital media products: Universal Polyester, Premium Polyester, Synthetic Paper, and Pressure Sensitive.

The Triumph Digital Media products are designed to deliver durable digital printing solutions for challenging applications, and are described as being environmentally friendly and eliminating the need for over-lamination. These products are designed, engineered and tested for both dry and liquid toner presses produced by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Triumph Digital Media products have also been tested and approved to run on a broad range of digital-based equipment, the company says.

Triumph Universal Polyester is a rigid film with a smooth print surface and a toner-receptive topcoat designed to make colours pop. The product is waterproof, weatherproof and tear-resistant and provides “excellent results” from high-heat digital and HP Indigo printing. Triumph Universal Polyester can be printed, punched, scored, perforated and die-cut.

Triumph Premium Polyester offers nearly all the features of Triumph Universal Polyester plus “ultimate static control, alcohol resistance, excellent runnability and image stability,” explains Appvion. As well, Triumph Premium Polyester is certified by more OEMs than any other synthetic substrate.

Triumph Synthetic Paper is a flexible film described as being resistant to water, chemicals, oil and tearing. The product boasts a luxurious look and feel that delivers vibrant colour reproduction. Triumph Synthetic Papers can be punched, perforated, scored, folded and die-cut and has been engineered for high-heat digital equipment.

Triumph Pressure Sensitive is designed to withstand high heat, moisture and tearing, without shrinking or swelling. It contains premium water-based acrylic adhesives to help keep bumper stickers and retail and industrial signs in place in end-use applications without unwanted residue or oozing during printing, says Appvion. Triumph Pressure Sensitive is precision-sheeted for consistent feeding in high-heat digital and HP Indigo equipment, it adds.
