What are the differences between domestically produced mixed carbon ribbon and imported products?

There are differences between domestic mixed carbon ribbon and imported products in multiple aspects, mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Material selection

Imported products: There may be stricter selection of raw materials, using higher quality polyester film and ink to ensure printing effect and durability.

Domestic products: Although there are also high-quality products, there may be some products with uneven quality in the market. In recent years, with the improvement of domestic production technology, the material selection of domestically produced mixed carbon ribbon has also been continuously optimized, but there is still a certain gap compared to the international advanced level.

2. Production process

Imported products often use more advanced production processes and equipment, with stricter quality control during the production process, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of the products.

Domestic products: The production process is also constantly improving, and some manufacturers have been able to produce high-performance hybrid carbon ribbons. However, overall, there may still be some room for improvement compared to imported products.

3. Printing effect

Imported products: usually have higher clarity, more uniform ink distribution, and stronger adhesion, which can print more delicate and durable barcode patterns.

Domestic products: Although there are also products with excellent printing effects, overall, there may still be a certain gap compared to imported products in the high-end market. However, with the improvement of domestic production technology, the printing effect of domestically produced hybrid carbon ribbons is also constantly improving.

4. Durability

Imported products often have better wear resistance, water resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance, and can maintain clear and readable barcode patterns in harsh environments.

Domestic products: The durability is also constantly improving, but the specific performance may vary depending on the manufacturer and product. Some high-quality domestically produced blended carbon ribbons can already be compared to imported products to a certain extent.

5. Price

Imported products: Due to advantages in materials, production processes, and other aspects, their prices are usually higher than similar domestically produced mixed carbon ribbons.

Domestic products: relatively affordable prices, with higher cost-effectiveness. With the intensification of domestic market competition and the improvement of production technology, the price advantage of domestically produced mixed carbon ribbon is gradually emerging.

6. Market positioning

Imported products: often positioned in the high-end market to meet customers who have high requirements for printing quality and durability.

Domestic products cover various market segments from low-end to high-end, meeting the diverse needs of different customers.

7. Brand influence

Imported products: often have high visibility and influence in the international market, such as brands like Zebra and Sony, which have won the trust and praise of customers through long-term market accumulation and technological innovation.

Domestic products: Although the brand influence is relatively weak, efforts have been made in recent years to enhance brand influence and market competitiveness.

8. Certification and standards

Imported products: usually comply with internationally recognized quality standards and certification requirements, such as ISO, CE, etc., which ensure the quality and performance of the product.

Domestic products: We are also actively seeking recognition of relevant certifications and standards at home and abroad to enhance the market competitiveness of our products.

In summary, there are certain differences between domestic mixed carbon ribbon and imported products in terms of material selection, production process, printing effect, durability, price, market positioning, brand influence, and certification and standards. Consumers should consider factors such as actual needs, budget, and product quality when making choices.
