fabric using water-based pigment inks. It allows for vibrant, detailed, and durable prints
without the need for traditional screens or plates.
1. Design Preparation – Your artwork is created or adjusted digitally for accurate colours
and sizing.
2. Fabric Preparation – Fabrics are pre-treated to help pigments bond with the fibres.
3. Printing –Our Specialised textile printers spray pigment inks directly onto the fabric.
4. Fixation – Heat is applied to cure the inks, locking the colours in place.
5. Finishing – Fabric is inspected, rolled, or cut, ready for use.
