Textile printing
Textile Sublimation printing:
Dye sublimation is used for printing on fabric as it can be washed afterwards, while still keeping its colours lively and fresh.
The principle of dye sublimation: The idea is simple; a strip of paper is printed (offset) in reverse so that the printed message will be the right way round once it is copied onto the desired material. The paper and the tissue are overlaid and pressed against a heated cylinder (around 210°C) for a few seconds. Under the effect of the heat, the ink fixes itself to the tissue, leaving us to just separate the paper and the tissue in taking it from the machine.
Is the real revolution in fabric printing?
INTENSE COLOURS
Assured by professionals, it offers a quality of unequalled contrast, intensity and depth of colour.
We have a wide range of incredibly lively colours, including blacks of high density, giving more emphasis to your message.
ARCHITECTURAL EXECUTION
Due to a silicon edging the graphic is kept at perfect tension, giving you the same visual qualities as the rigid panels that were frequently used in the exhibition world…
But without the inconvenience of transporting them!
NON REFLECTIVE
The sublimated tissue absorbs all lighting, avoiding distracting reflections on your image.
ECOLOGICAL PROCESS
The printing process and the inks that are used are ecological solutions without solvents or harmful odours.
A VARIETY OF MATERIAL
A large range of fabrics gives you more scope to be creative and also multiplies your choice of printing executions.
The choice of materials allows you to create original graphics and push the limits of your creativity.
