Textile transfers & tagless labels

Sportswear and workwear increasingly feature branding and other design details that are printed separately and applied retrospectively to the garment. This technique is generally reserved for high quality garments and ensures wash-ability and durability. There are various ink systems and methods used to derive the impression, but all require screen printing to a greater extent. Screen printing remains the method for creating the highest quality impression from multiple colours. In almost all cases a screen printed flood on the reverse of the image is required to ensure opacity to a degree that is currently not possible digitally. This is a volume business with slim margins, so quality, registration and speed are essential. Unitech’s complete products offering of printing machines along with pre-press machine and dryers ensures most productive solutions for speed and quality.
