Brother P-touch electonic labellers uses unique and advanced laminated tape technology.
 P-touch TZ tapes are the only tapes available that have a unique lamination, which makes the labels heat, cold, water, chemical and fade resistant (perfect for use outdoors, cold environments and near food). The labels are extremely durable, have a professional finish and will outlast other labels.
At Brother, we have thought about when, where and how you might need to use our labels so we put them through a series of rigorous tests, which means that even when they’re exposed to heavy abrasion, heat, cold, sunshine, water and chemicals, our labels have been designed to last. To see more about our tests and the results, click on the PDF below.
