Lecta has expanded its Termax range of high-substance thermal papers with new non top-coated and top-coated grades developed specifically for ticketing and identification applications.

The products are available in 170 and 172 g/m².

• admission tickets
• access-control tickets
• transport tickets
• boarding passes
• parking tickets
• logistics data-carrier tags
• product identification labels
• supermarket shelf labels

Performance Features

The new Termax grades offer:

• excellent double-sided preprintability
• strong image stability
• improved durability
• high substance and high caliper
• flexible use across multiple thermal printing markets

The non top-coated versions provide a cost-effective option, while the top-coated grade offers improved resistance to environmental conditions.

Sustainability and Certification

All Termax products are manufactured under major management standards, including:

• ISO 14001
• EMAS

Industry Insight

Lecta’s Termax expansion reflects a broader trend in thermal paper: buyers increasingly want materials that combine print quality, durability, regulatory compliance and certification options.

For ticketing, transport and logistics applications, thermal paper is no longer judged only by print sensitivity. Long-term readability, resistance and responsible sourcing are becoming central purchasing criteria.
