Marabu to showcase digital transfer printing at InPrint

In hall A6 stand 527, Marabu will showcase ‘Cold-Peel’, digital transfer printing for textiles. The Texa Jet DX-DTE digital printing ink based on pigmented resin boasts all the major advantages of transfer technology. The image is printed using the CMYK process onto a specially coated film, without the need for complex prepress work. Screen printing is only required for the white blocking layer or, if needed, the application of adhesive.

The final patches are produced by means of a heat press. The patches are extremely thin, ensuring that the final result has a soft handle, and safeguards the comfort of the t-shirt. “When deployed on the Mutho Value Jet 628, cost-effective and efficient small and mid-size production runs are possible. Further strengths are wash resistance, and the ability to generate high-resolution images in bright colours,” Marabu said.

With headquarters near Stuttgart, Germany, Marabu’s track record of innovation stretches back to 1859, featuring many industry-first solutions for both industrial applications and graphic design. With its 14 subsidiaries and exclusive distribution partners, Marabu offers high-quality products and customer-specific services in more than 80 countries.
