Seven Main Printing Processes
|
| 1 Hotmark |
| Ideal for 1 or multi-colour designs requiring an
opaque sharp image and durability, can be applied to most fabrics including nylons.
This method requires no additional set up charges making it cost effective for
small quantities, comes in a variety of stock colours as well as reflective, diffractive,
gold, silver, and flock for a very plush velvet feel. |
| 2 Full colour transfer |
| This process is an alternative to screen printing making the
printing of full colour photo's an affordable option for 1 off's with no set up
charge. Ideally suited to light or white garments. |
| 3 Screen Printing |
| Suited to the customer requiring larger quantities, a set up
charge per colour must be added to the order, also there is a minimum order of
15 garments. |
| 4 Foil Printing |
| This process is required when the customer requires a metallic
finish to plastics, leather or paper. The foil is bonded to the products by a
mixture of heat and pressure. Business stationary and invitations along with diaries,
coasters etc… |
| 5 Pad Printing |
| This process is used when the product needing printed has an
uneven surface or isn't flat. Products printed using this process include pens,
golf balls, combs, lighters, rulers etc… |
| 6 Dye-sublimation |
Dye-sublimation Sublimation has now been on the go
in Europe for 20 years and continual research and development has seen its use
increase in the personalization industry today
7 Embroidery
Eye catching and elegant is the only way to describe this method, not as expensive as you may expect for your club to get the perfect image but this is the preferred method for cpas and fleeces as it gives the best results. |
