Water Based Discharge Printing

Water Based Discharge Printing

Would you like your custom printed clothing to have the softest feel?  Most custom screen printing is done with plastisol inks and though they do the job, sometimes it can be a bit ‘tough’.  Plastisol inks don’t contain a solvent, so in order for them to set, you need to put them through a drying process.  The heat causes the ink to stiffen up while it dries and for some all over designs and multi-color designs, that can be irritating.  So what do you do if you want screen printing, but also want it to be lightweight and soft to the touch?  You get water based discharge printing!

Water Based Discharge Printing

Water based discharge printing is a form of screen printing that uses a different type of ink altogether to get the job done.  Water based inks, as denoted in the name, typically use water as a solvent.  In order to set these types of prints, the solvent must evaporate instead of cure like with plastisol inks.  What that means for your prints is that they are much more flexible and not tough at all.  The inks are less viscous which means that you can print over seams more easily, which makes water based inks perfect for all over and wrap around printing.

Now you may be thinking, where does the ‘discharge’ factor into the printing?  Well, with an added discharge agent to the water based ink, you have water based discharge printing!  The discharge agent is responsible for removing the pre-existing color in a garment and which is replaced by the color of your choice.  If you would be interested in trying out custom water based discharge printing, you can come to AMBRO Manufacturing where we can provide our garment decoration services to you.  If you would like to place an order, or if you would like to learn more about our company and customization services, you can contact us by email or by calling us at (908) 806-8337.

T-Shirt Telabeling And Printing

T-Shirt Relabeling And Printing

Making custom clothes is becoming more and more popular over the years. People are requesting their own creative designs to be printed or embroidered on a vast variety of garments and other accessories. With creating a custom clothing line you may not want the tags that are already inside the shirts or attached to the fabric. There is a way to put your own label on things to make it official. AMBRO Manufacturing is a screen printing company that specializes in t-shirt relabeling and printing.

To achieve your own tag on the shirts, we would need to have your logo that you wish to use and the basic tee shirt label requirements; sizes, care of the product, and the blend of the fabric. If you choose a shirt that already has a tag printed inside it that won't be an issue .In cases like this we would take the color of the shirt and print a solid shape to cover the original tag then print your tag on top of it. An easier way to get this done is to get shirts that have the tear away tags.

T-shirt relabeling and printing will make and sell your shirt better as your own line rather than keeping the original tag inside. Making everything look official will make a better brand for yourself or your company. All printed tags are small so be sure that your logo or any information is not too tiny.

Before you start your next clothing line or product, be sure to give us a call at (908) 806 8337 or email us and we will get back to you with any questions you have on t- shirt relabeling and printing. We have many sales representatives that can help and explain to you the process of t-shirt relabeling.
