Iron-on printing
Iron-on printing offers the ability to craft intricate designs and vibrant hues with remarkable endurance. Its versatility extends to diverse fabrics and apparel like T-shirts, hoodies, and hats. Nonetheless, heat transfer printing has its drawbacks. For instance, delicate fabrics like stretchy materials might encounter subpar outcomes due to heat or pressure. Furthermore, factors like cleaning or friction can lead to peeling or distortion of the heat transfer pattern. Hence, the selection of apt textiles and suitable heat transfer methods stands as a pivotal decision.
Direct injection
Direct injection resembles a color printer directly imprinting images onto garments. It offers remarkable flexibility and durability, delivering a pleasant tactile sensation without a paper-like texture. The ink seamlessly melds with fabrics, ensuring excellent breathability, albeit at a relatively higher cost.
Screen Printing
Screen printing involves pushing ink onto clothing via a squeegee's extrusion through a patterned mesh. This creates a tactile pattern that boasts affordability, vibrant hues, extended longevity, and exceptional breathability.
Hot transfer
Heat transfer involves using specialized ink to print onto sublimation paper. Through a controlled heat and duration process using a heat transfer machine, the ink on the paper sublimates due to high temperature, seamlessly bonding with the transfer object. This method ensures that only the ink adheres to the object, avoiding any overt textural changes. Sublimation primarily suits cotton and synthetic fabrics, offering advantages like cost-effectiveness, excellent breathability, vibrant imagery, and fade resistance.
Colorful reflective printing
Vibrant reflective printing entails integrating hot stone tape to craft the design, employing a forward rotation technique for the heat application. When exposed to intense light, it refracts a dazzling array of colors, captivating fashion-forward brands. The resulting printed images exhibit striking realism, and they maintain their quality through washes and wear, showcasing impressive durability.
Foil Gold Print
Foil gold printing is to add a special chemical preparation agent to the printed water slurry, so that the printing position is golden, and the golden color is long-lasting. It can be printed on many fabrics without unpleasant smell and no ink residue. It is recommended to lighten wash.
Towel embroidery or Applique patches
Applique patches, also referred to as Zhangzi embroidery, involve laser outlining on distinct patch materials, accompanied by bottom embroidery. Different name types are embroidered using specialized machines, ideal for embellishing apparel. These patches are meticulously sewn to achieve the desired aesthetic. They capture artistic inspiration in segmented form, showcasing intricate craftsmanship and impressive depth. With a moderately reasonable cost, they add a touch of sophistication to clothing decoration.
Embroidery
Direct injection functions akin to a color printer directly imprinting images onto garments. This technique offers commendable flexibility and lasting resilience, resulting in a pleasing tactile sensation devoid of a papery texture. The ink seamlessly integrates with the fabric, ensuring superior breathability, albeit at a relatively higher cost.
Flocking
Flocking is a technique that involves applying numerous tiny fiber particles onto fabric surfaces. This is achieved by depositing fibers or a layer onto a base layer using adhesive. Flocking can be executed across the entire fabric surface or localized to specific areas. Its decorative application dates back to the 14th century, with short silk fibers being deposited on freshly painted walls. The craft of flocking yields a soft tactile experience and offers effective warmth retention. Nonetheless, increased washing frequency may lead to shedding, and there's a possibility of encountering a sticky residue issue.
Puff Print
Puff printing involves applying a resin-coated color paste containing a foaming agent onto fabric. When subjected to high-temperature gas steaming, the printed pattern expands, creating a raised relief effect. This technique boasts strong color fastness and a discernible three-dimensional texture. However, its breathability is limited, and it carries a higher cost.
Embossed
Embossing is achieved through the application of pressure to create a prominent three-dimensional effect. This technique is highly sought after in fashionable clothing and is commonly used for logos and uncomplicated patterns. The resulting design boasts a pronounced raised texture, contributing to its allure. However, due to its intricate nature, embossing typically commands a higher price point.
Tie Dye
Tie-dyeing is an artful process encompassing various transformative techniques. This approach introduces novel design elements, typically employing cotton or cotton-hemp blends. Knotting, binding, and other techniques are applied, accompanied by specialized tie-dye materials. The resulting dyeing effect showcases a distinctive and organic textural shift, characterized by a captivating interplay of rich, natural colors. However, this technique's uniqueness comes at a higher cost.
Acid Wash
Acid wash involves treating specific fabrics with specialized solutions, necessitating a garment wash to achieve a weathered and worn appearance, particularly at edges and corners. This technique is a favorite among stylish brands, enjoying widespread popularity due to its appealing texture and reasonable cost.
Silicone printing
Silica gel application entails screen printing a unique liquid form of silica gel onto fabric surfaces, creating a secure bond. This results in a multi-dimensional design with a gentle tactile sensation, boasting durability through washes and wear, and exhibiting resistance to fading. However, due to its intricate process and exceptional qualities, it commands a relatively higher price.
Slurry Coating
Pull paste or pull pulp, also referred to as slurry coating, delivers a potent and dynamic performance, revealing a slurry-like texture reminiscent of stone and lava. This technique imparts a robust tactile quality and achieves a distinctive textural outcome, albeit at a premium price point.
