Tape Widths

Abrasion Resistant –

In the P-touch abrasion test using a 1kg

sanding device, lettering remained completely intact, only the
protective layer was slightly scratched.

Temperature Resistant – 

P-touch labels can withstand

extreme temperatures, from -80°C to 150°C.

Chemical Resistant –

after being submerged for 2 hours in a

variety of chemical substances, no change in appearance or
structure of P-touch labels occurred and the labels remained
affixed.

Water Resistant – 

after submersion in water over a long peri-

od, the tape structure and adhesive strength of P-touch labels
remained unchanged.  

Fade Resistant –

after a year in a simulated sunny climate P-

touch labels showed very little change visible to the naked
eye.

Laminated – 

our unique laminated tape technology ensures

that a layer of super-clear polyethylene laminate protects your
text.

Strong Adhesion –

specially developed adhesive means P-

touch labels will stay firmly affixed to a wide range of sur-
faces.

Easy Peel –

enables convenient removal of the tape backing

before applying the label.

Brother P-touch labels have been subjected to a series of rigorous
tests which prove that even when they’re exposed to extreme condi-
tions our labels have been designed to last.

Unlike ordinary labels, Brother’s patented laminated tape technology
ensures that a layer of super clear polyethylene laminate protects your
text. Our laminated tapes consist of six layers of materials, resulting in a
thin, extremely strong label.  

Characters formed with thermal transfer ink are actually printed on the
underside of the laminate and sandwiched between layers of PET (poly-
ester film). This lets you create characters that are virtually indestructi-
ble on labels that stand the test of time.
