Discharge Prints

Discharge Prints

Have you heard about garments customized with discharge prints?  I’m sure you’ve probably heard about screen printing, or at the very least, you’ve seen it on custom clothing before, so you’re not too far off.  Many screen printed garments are printed using plastisol inks, but there are more options than just plastisol inks!  Let’s take discharge prints for example:  Discharge ink is a type of water based ink that has different properties than plastisol ink which gives you different printing results.

Discharge Prints

The biggest difference between the inks is the use of a solvent.  Plastisol inks are easy to reuse over and over again because they lack a solvent which prevents them from drying up when exposed to air.  The trade-off for easy storage and reuse is that plastisol inks tend to dry stiff and heavy which won’t work for every garment.  Water based ink printing doesn’t have to worry about that because the inks contain a solvent that allows you to print softer.  Of course, when working with a solvent you have a time limit on the ink before it expires so printing with them can be a bit trickier.

Discharge prints take water based inks a step further because a special discharge agent can be mixed into the pigmented ink so as to allow you to remove the existing color from the garment while depositing the desired color in its place.  Since you don’t even need to print an underbase layer the resulting print will be ultra soft, as though the print has always been a part of the fabric!  So if you are interested in trying out custom discharge prints, you should come to AMBRO Manufacturing where we can provide you with all of that and more.  You can easily contact us to place your order, or to find out more about our company and services, by email or by giving us a call at (908) 806-8337.

Leather embossing is not as hard as you may think it is, but you need a couple of things before jumping into the leather embossing process. First you will need the leather that you want to be embossed as well as a die, which is a stamp of the logo or design you want to have on your book. Next, you will need a leather embossing machine, which we have our very own right here in our warehouse. With all these items, we can make your leather embossing vision come to life in a matter of minutes.

Leather embossing will leave a raised imprint of your design, rather than a sunken in imprint. The leather embossing stamp is basically just an outline of your logo, and when pressed onto the piece of leather it will force the leather to rise up. Leather embossing has a very elegant, sophisticated element to it that you don’t find very often. Leather embossing is a great way to leave your mark on a book, or can make a good gift that is custom designed by yourself.

Come visit us at AMBRO Manufacturing and we can help you make your leather embossing designs become reality. We can print one or as many leather books or journals as you want. Ask as many questions as you want and we can make the process easy and pain free. You can email us or give us a call us at (908) 806-8337 and get started with your leather embossing jobs today.
