What is thermal paper?
Thermal is a high-quality paper that is finely coated with a special material formulated to change color when exposed to heat. It is widely applauded for its smooth and high-definition printing on different types of receipts.
Also called audit rolls, thermal paper rolls are special fine papers coated with materials that change colors automatically when exposed to heat. The surface of paper sheets is coated with dye and a suitable matrix mixture. The solidified dye reacts with the matrix acid when heated above its melting point, shifting to its colored state. In most cases, thermal rolls turn black when heated, but blue and red coatings can also be used.
Due to such properties, thermal papers are commonly used in thermal printers, especially in lightweight devices, such as cash registers, credit cards, and mobile printers.

Read MoreThe use of thermal paper rolls for printing receipts by businesses has gained a lot of traction lately. However, some detractors argue that the inclusion of BPA in its manufacture presents some health risks to customers. Just to mention, BPA was initially used as a coating material due to its stability and good heat resistance. All the offered GTS papers are BPA-free. As such, it is very unlikely for personnel handling bulk paper rolls daily to be exposed to toxic BPA levels.
Thermal paper safely changes its color when exposed to heat without causing a fire. Unlike ribbon receipt systems, thermal receipt paper don’t require ink, allowing for fast printing. Additionally, only a few printing parts can break down. Generally, the printing quality of thermal receipt papers is higher than other alternative options. They also have very minimal bleeding, thus high legibility.
Whether you are looking for expensive or cheap paper rolls, it is prudent to source from a reputable thermal paper supplier.

Choosing the right thermal rolls for invoices, receipts, packing lists, delivery documents, and other use is overly important.

As for the colored thermal roll paper options, you can choose any color. Different color options are perfect if you want to print stand-out receipts.
Note that thermal rolls can come with several security features, regardless of your choice. Standard security features include UV inks, watermarks, coin reactive inks, micro printing, and thermochromic inks that change color when exposed to heat or slight friction.
Security features prevent the receipt from being duplicated. They also help the merchant recognise that the receipt is authentic.
Important considerations to look into when selecting the right BPA free thermal paper roll include resistance to moisture, heat, and thickness. The thickness of paper in the U.S is expressed in mils. The thicker the paper roll, the more durable and quality it is.
