Save Money Now

With economic environment changes, finding savings on consumables is not easy where the “do it yourself” kiwi attitude has produced one of the most competitive markets in the world.

Ask someone if they know what Thermal Transfer Ribbon is, and 9 times out of 10 they have no idea. Tell them it is the roll of black ribbon used to print labels and bar codes in their label and barcode printer, the answer may be a vague ‘ok.’

This niche market, because of its obscure nature, is an area where cost is often overlooked. Consequently many companies continue to pay more than necessary for this consumable, and it is one area where significant cost savings can be made. With some companies, spending tens of thousands of dollars a year on this product, these savings can be substantial.

In these tough economic times, Techspan’s sales of TTR continue to increase. Techspan’s investment in new high speed slitting machinery to convert Thermal Transfer Ribbon, is now paying dividends. Techspan imports jumbo rolls direct from the manufacturers and converts to exact customer requirements in-house.

Some companies using the highest quality ribbons and labels on their shipping cartons; have saved thousands of dollars by simply switching to less expensive labels and ribbons. Others are using larger widths of ribbon than required, whereas Techspan are able to ‘slit to order’ more economic sizes. Another option for companies is to overprint a standard label with variable information as required, rather than ordering in thousands of unique labels that may end up sitting in stock for months.

Techspan Group stocks a huge colour range of ribbons, in all grades, for all label and barcode printers in all configurations.
