In penetrative printing, such as reactive printing, a wider hole-size enables more voluminous paste transfer. This way, the paste can completely penetrate the substrates, which require complete print-through.
Substrates used for instance in ladies’ fashion such as knitted viscose or viscose georgette with highly twisted yarn, require a complete saturation by the paste. As the fabric is entirely saturated with paste, superficial unprinted spots which might occur during washing are avoided.
Breezy materials in ladies’ fashion often need a print-through effect - the backside also being covered by printing paste - for optical and design reasons. Really deep and full shades require a high paste volume. Therefore NovaScreen165 with its high open area is often preferred for those applications.
The new screen type can be seen as a hybrid between the existing NovaScreen 165-19% and NovaScreen 195-16%. It features the advantages of both screen types and can therefore be used for full penetrative printing as well as surface printing, both providing the best possible printing resolution in textile printing.
