Discharge Style of Printing

Discharge Style of Printing

If you want soft prints with screen printing, you need to check out the discharge style of printing!  What’s that, you haven’t heard of the discharge style of printing before?  Well, there’s plenty of time to find out what it’s all about so maybe you can join in!  If you are custom garment designer that needs the softest touch from your prints, then you should come to AMBRO Manufacturing where we can provide you with water based screen printing and discharge style of printing services.

Discharge Style of Printing

We at AMBRO Manufacturing are a contract screen printing, sublimation, and embroidery company, so we know how to handle your decoration needs with ease.  The discharge style of printing is very similar to the process of screen printing with plastisol inks, but the key difference is in the actual ink.  Discharge printing is an extension of water based ink printing, the only difference is that a discharge agent has been added to the mixture.  The discharge agent is responsible for removing the pre-existing color from the garment so that you can deposit your desired color in its place.  Since the ink is water based, the resulting print is much softer than what plastisol inks can achieve as they stiffen up during the curing process.

The discharge style of printing is ideal for lightweight garments and designs that are meant to get all over coverage on a garment.  Printing at a large scale with heavy inks impacts the wearability and comfortability of the piece, but not with discharge printing.  It’s so soft it will seem like it’s always been a part of the fabric!  So if you are curious about the discharge style of printing and you want to learn more or even start printing with discharge inks, you can contact us at AMBRO Manufacturing by email or by giving us a call at (908) 806-8337.

Custom Made Headbands

Custom Made Headbands

When you were a little girl I bet you used to like wearing headbands all the time. As time passed the headband fad died down and you grew out of that phase. There is a fun way to bring the headband wearing days back, and that is by wearing custom made headbands.

Custom made headbands are great for girls who play on sports teams, or dance teams. You can have anything you want on custom made headbands since we make them according to your desires and visions. We can screen print on any blank headband that you find. The print will be small since the custom made headband is a small area to begin with. We can print on the top of the headband or on the side of the headband. If you want to print on the side keep in mind that it will be a much smaller print than if you were to print on the top. We have a variety of ink colors that you can choose from to make your custom made headband.

Custom Made Headbands

If there is a seam in the headband that you choose we have to print either above or below the seam line. We can also embroider a custom made headband. When working with AMBRO Manufacturing, you can pick whatever thread color that we have in house for your design. As mentioned above about the location of the design, the same goes for embroidery. One thing that will differ is the amount of detail. With embroider it is harder to create designs that have a lot of detail in them because of using thread instead of ink.

If you want to start wearing headbands again then you can email us or give us a call at (908) 806-8337 and we can make your very own custom made headband just the way you want it.
