Screen Printing
By far the best results and the most brilliant colors are achieved by chemical damp through-printing. This is a screen printing process in which dispersion dyes are printed "wet on wet." Special colours and spot colours are printed as true colours and are not developed through 4c halftoning. It possible to print up to 10 colours in one cycle.
After printing, the material runs through a damper in which the colours are fixed thermally. By means of hot steam at a temperature of 195° C and under high pressure, this process opens the fibres which take up the dye.Afterwards this dye is bonded to the material and can no longer be washed out.
