WESTMORELAND, N.H. � August 2008 � The leader in harsh environmental labels and product marking for industrial identification, Polyonics Inc. announces that it will display its full line of THERMOGARD� and TRIBOGARD� RoHS/WEEE compliant thermal transfer printable barcode label materials in booth 607 at the upcoming SMTA International exhibition and conference, scheduled to take place August 19-20, 2008 in Orlando, FL.

All of Polyonics materials are compliant with RoHS/WEEE.

THERMOGARD� and TRIBOGARD� label materials are designed for circuit board and related electronic component marking in the electronics industry. All of these materials withstand the standard PCB manufacturing processes and the majority withstands the higher temperatures of lead-free manufacturing, as well as the new, more aggressive, fluxes, cleaners, and saponifiers used in the electronics manufacturing process. Polyimides are available in white and a spectrum of RoHS compliant colors.
