Overview
Microwave-safe overlay for branded food and microwave packaging.
Premium frozen-meal brands invest heavily in package design and customers microwave the products in their original packaging. Overlay Microwave TR sits on top of the existing brand graphic without obscuring it AND stays inert under microwave power. Two TR-family features combined into one product, sized for the food/pharmacy categories where both matter.
Features
- Thin adhesive label design — discreet protection on small or boxed merchandise
- Quick application for high-volume retail environments
- Cost-effective versus reusable hard tags
- 58 kHz acoustomagnetic — compatible with any AM EAS gate
- Reliable detection on metal/foil-containing products (AM advantage over RF labels)
- Optional custom printing for branding and security messaging
