Barcode Ribbon or Barcode Ink Rolls: Types and Uses Explained

Barcode Ribbon in Saudi Arabia
Barcode ribbon, also known as ink rolls, is categorized into several types based on the intended application. At Barcode Egypt, one of the leading suppliers of barcode ribbons in Saudi Arabia (serving cities such as Riyadh, Jeddah, Taif, Madinah, Makkah, Abha, Arar, Al Khobar, Dammam, Hail, Tabuk, Yanbu, Jubail, Qassim, Najran, and Jazan), we’ll dive into the details of the various types of barcode ribbons:

1. Wax Ribbon

   • Used for printing barcode stickers made of paper material.
   • Suitable for applications that do not require high durability or ink permanence.

2. Resin Ribbon

   • Ideal for printing on smooth or plastic-based barcode stickers.
   • Offers high durability and strong ink permanence, making it perfect for plastic materials.

3. Wax-Resin Ribbon (Premium Ribbon)

   • A hybrid option, suitable for printing on semi-porous surfaces.
   • Offers medium durability and ink permanence, positioned between wax and resin ribbons.

4. Wash Care Ribbon

   • Designed for printing on acetate labels and care tags for garments.
   • Highly durable and resistant to multiple washing cycles.

5. Near Edge Ribbon

   • Specifically designed for smooth, plastic-like surfaces such as snack bags and food product rolls.
   • Ensures strong ink permanence for products stored for long periods on shelves.

6. Hot Foil Ribbon

   • Used for printing production dates, expiry dates, and batch numbers.
   • Applicable on cartons, stickers, and plastic bags but offers lower durability compared to Near Edge ribbons.

At Barcode Egypt, we aim to provide valuable insights into the differences between ribbon types and their applications for all barcode users in Saudi Arabia.
