Highlights
  • Primer compatible with flexographic printing applications
  • Enables high value, custom void label constructions

  • Typical applications include bar code tracking, thermal transfer labels, warning labels

3M™ Primer Y122 is used to provide a strong adhesive bond between facestock and the contrast enhancement coating on tamper evident label materials.

Unique Release Characteristics Enable High Value, Custom Void Label Constructions
3M™ Primer Y122 provides a strong bond in situations where facestock and contrast enhancement coating do not easily adhere to each other. The thickness of the primer coating should be enough to cover the imaged release layer and provide a continuous surface for applying the contract enhancement coating.
