Discharge Printing Services

Discharge Printing Services

Have you ever heard about custom discharge printing services?  If you haven’t, then it probably sounds like some kind of science fiction process for printing, but it’s actually quite simple.  You see, in screen printing if you have a dark garment that you want to print light or bright colors on, you need to put a base coat of white ink under the image to make sure it pops.  Additional layers of ink start to add “hand” to the print which can feel stiff or rough which is deal breaker to some custom garment designers and customers.  Discharge printing services can help you get those bright vivid colors on dark fabrics without adding extra layers of ink!

Discharge Printing Services

Most screen printing is done using plastisol inks because they are easy to reuse and they won’t dry up when exposed to air.  The problem with plastisol is that you need to cure it with a dryer to set the print and that stiffens the ink and it feels heavy.  AMBRO Manufacturing offers Discharge printing inks are formulated differently and they are thinner than plastisol which allows them to penetrate deeper and across seams more easily.  They also contain a discharge agent that is responsible for removing the dyes already present in the shirt so that you don’t need to create a base layer of ink to get bright results.

Watching discharge printing services in action is like watching a magic show because you apply the inks to the blank garment, send it through the dryer and it comes out on the other side looking ready for the shelves!  Discharge printing is ultra soft so if you want to print your designs with soft hand then you should really give it a try for yourself.  You can easily contact us to place an order, or to learn more about our company and services, by email or by giving us a call at (908) 806-8337.

Wholesale Screen Printing

Wholesale Screen Printing

If you are trying to break into the fashion industry by becoming a custom garment decorator, you may want to utilize wholesale screen printing.  Wholesale screen printing is a great way to turn a profit on garments.  It’s a no-brainer when it comes to having your wholesale blank goods printed.  For a small investment, you can maximize profits from your goods and build a stronger brand.

Wholesale Screen Printing

If you are brand new to the industry, screen printing is a method of garment decoration that has been in use for a long time.  The basics involve using silk mesh screens with designs on them to print colored ink onto fabric.  Each color in the design requires an individual screen that has been etched with only the parts of the image that are of that color.  The garments are lined up on the printing press and one by one, each screen will be laid onto the surface and colored ink will be pulled across the screen.  After each screen has made an imprint on the garment, you will see the completed image!  Then after a quick drying, the print is set and ready to wear.  Now those are just the basics when it comes to standard screen printing.  Wholesale screen printing can be anything you make of it.  At AMBRO manufacturing we can set you up with different screen printing services for your wholesale goods to find just the right blend.
