With the new pigmented resin Texa Jet ink, Marabu combines the advantages of current transfer printing technologies in one application.
The design is printed in CMYK colour mode directly onto the foil without a time-consuming pre-press process and only the white barrier layer is applied using screen printing.
“The small layer thickness of the final patches allows a soft look and feel, thus increasing the wearing comfort of the printed tshirts,” the German company said.
“In this time and effort saving process, low and medium size orders can be produced with excellent resistance in high definition and bright colours,” it added.
The digital textile transfer concept will be shown on a Mutoh ValueJet 628 live at the Marabu booth and the final patches will be transferred via a heat press.
