Near-Edge Thermal Transfer Ribbons

Near-edge ribbons are designed specifically for near-edge printers like Markem-Imaje, VideoJet, and Bellmark. Unlike flat-head ribbons, they transfer ink at the very edge of the printhead, which makes them ideal for high-speed printing and flexible packaging applications.

Our near-edge ribbons work in all major near-edge printers, including Markem-Imaje, VideoJet, TEC and Bellmark, as well as other leading brands on the market.

We offer Wax, Wax/Resin, and Full Resin near-edge ribbons:

• Wax – economical, great for general use.

• Wax/Resin – a blend of durability and flexibility.

• Full Resin – for the toughest applications requiring resistance to chemicals, heat, and abrasion.

These ribbons are widely used in food packaging, pharmaceuticals, medical device labeling, industrial parts, cosmetics, and logistics where fast, durable printing is critical.

PaladinID offers ribbons in many widths and lengths to fit your exact printer model and application needs. We custom-match the ribbon size to ensure compatibility and efficiency.

• Wax: Best for paper labels and short-term use.

• Wax/Resin: Ideal for coated papers, synthetics, and moderate durability.

• Full Resin: The most durable, designed for synthetic labels and resistant to harsh environments.

That’s where PaladinID comes in. Simply call us at 888.972.5234 or request a Discovery Call. Our experts will guide you through the process, taking into account your printer, label material, environment, and application.
