New Discs from Leading Blu-ray Technology Developer Offer Ultimate Combination of Bit-Perfect Performance, Durability, and Crisp, Vivid Surface Printing
TDK announced that it has begun shipping recordable Blu-ray Discs with printable surfaces. The two new products are the BD-R25PWX25CB ($24.99) for inkjet systems, and BD-R25THX25CB ($24.99) for thermal systems. Both incorporate exclusive surface coatings to deliver professional quality printing results. The discs utilize TDK’s exclusive DURABIS technology to offer legendary durability.
TDK’s proprietary printable surfaces yield the highest quality output from a range of devices including Microboards, Microtech, Primera (including the Primera Accent II Disc Laminator), Rimage Everest and TEAC. The BD-R25PWX25CB for inkjet systems features a blank, matte white surface, and the BD-R25THX25CB for thermal systems features a blank, glossy white surface. Both allow printing all the way to the disc hub.
TDK 25GB BD-R printable surface Blu-ray Discs are exclusively manufactured at TDK’s state-of-the-art technical center in Japan. The use of this facility helps ensure ultra-stringent quality control. For commercial recording applications where errors can’t be tolerated, TDK printable surface Blu-ray Discs are the wise choice.
Because the Blu-ray Disc employs high density recording, which requires maximum laser precision, the disc must be aggressively protected against scratches and other contaminants that could interfere with the laser, causing data errors. That's why TDK developed DURABIS, an innovative hard coating technology that protects the surface of all TDK Blu-ray Discs against common contaminants such as scratches and fingerprints.
DURABIS drastically increases the scratch resistance of Blu-ray Disc media. Because the DURABIS coating technology rapidly discharges static electricity, the discs also resist the accumulation of dust. TDK pioneered hard coating technology, which is an integral part of the Blu-ray Disc specification. TDK's exclusive DURABIS formulation is the ultimate protective coating for Blu-ray Discs.
