Traffolyte labels are durable, multi-layered plastic labels commonly used for engraving purposes. Originally developed as an electrical insulation material, Traffolyte is now widely utilized for industrial and commercial signage due to its durability, chemical resistance, and ease of customization.
Material and Engraving Process
Traffolyte is composed of multiple layers of phenolic plastic, typically featuring a contrasting color core. When engraved, the top layer is precisely removed to expose the inner layer, resulting in sharp, high-contrast, and long-lasting markings. Our material offers the same qualities, consisting of a durable plastic laminate with a precise laser engraving depth of 0.08 mm.
