Contract Discharge Screen Printing

Contract Discharge Screen Printing

If you’re thinking of starting up a business that offers custom screen printed garments, the best way to get established is by using a contract screen printer.  With a contract screen printer, you can take production woes off of your plate and just deal with the business of designing!  When you’re getting started, the last thing you want to deal with is getting backed up with orders and starting off with bad customer experiences.  A professional printer can keep the supply up with the demand so that you can give your clients a positive experience and grow your brand confidence.

Contract Discharge Screen Printing

At AMBRO Manufacturing we can of course offer you traditional screen printing with plastisol inks but did you know that we can provide you with contract discharge screen printing too?  Contract discharge screen printing uses water based inks which differ largely from the typical plastisol inks.  Water based inks leave much softer prints on custom printed garments that many people prefer.  Discharge printing is screen printing with a water based ink that has an added discharge agent which will remove the pre-existing color from the garment and replace it with a color of your choice.

So, why delay any longer?  Come visit us at AMBRO Manufacturing to see how we can help you with your contract screen printing needs.  We have been in the garment customization industry for over 30 years so you can count on our quality and expertise.  We have plenty of customization services at our disposal to make the best custom garments you could imagine; all you have to do is reach out to us!  You can contact us to set up contract discharge screen printing, or to find out more about our company and the services we offer, by email or by calling us at (908) 806-8337.

Silk Screen Printers

Silk Screen Printers

Have you ever wondered how some of the garments you see in outlet stores came to be?  How are they able to create such eye catching prints on clothing?  How can they still look so good after many washes?  Well, it is all possible through silk screen printing.  Silk screen printers are just like any other artists that need to know the ins and outs of the medium they work with.  Knowing how to create high quality prints takes time, finesse, and expertise.  When done correctly, silk screen printing will produce a long lasting, beautiful custom garment for any occasion.

Silk Screen Printers

Screen printing gets its name from the silk mesh screens that are used in the printing process.  These screens are coated in an emulsion that completely blocks the tiny holes in the mesh.  The artwork is separated into layers that contain only one of the colors in the design per layer.  The layers are then individually etched into the screen, exposing the holes in the pattern of the design.  The screens are mounted onto a printing press in sequence and then loaded with the appropriate ink color.  The silk screen printers then load the blank garments onto the press and lay the screen over the fabric.  A squeegee will pull the ink across the screen, depositing a layer of ink onto the garment.  When all of the screens have had a pass of ink, the design is complete and it is ready to be dried and set.

It’s a lot of steps to accomplish at home so that’s why it’s best to let the professional silk screen printers handle the work.  At AMBRO Manufacturing we are more than happy to take on the work so you don’t have to.  You can contact us to place an order, or to find out more about us, by email or by calling us at (908) 806-8337.
