SCREEN PRINTING EXAMPLES FROM THE SCREEN PRINTING ARSONISTS
We can print up to 6 colors in screen printing. In this example you can see the structure of a screen print on a Fairtrade textile from Stanley Stella.
In combination - 3D screen printing with multicolor direct screen printing. Screen printing of course also works on heavy fabrics.
In this example, a 6-color screen print with additional puff base was printed. Details in the design can be highlighted particularly well by the three-dimensional print.
Here we have printed a two-color screenprint on a black textile of Stanley Stella. Pre + underprint in white + the contrast color yellow.

SCREEN PRINTING MATERIAL
Many years of experience in screen printing, a wide range of raw materials, ensures the optimal selection of the appropriate textile to achieve a perfect printing result. Therefore, at the beginning of an order, we carefully select the appropriate raw material. We offer both inexpensive and high quality textiles. The higher the quality of the material, the better the printing result: materials with high quality have fine mesh and so fine details can be better reproduced on them.
SCREEN PRINTING COLOR
Our colors are carefully selected before screen printing, matched to the textile and incorporated in the best possible way to guarantee a comfortable wear on the textiles. We use both water-based pigment inks and plastisol inks. In order to achieve a pleasant feel even on dark textiles, we print with etching inks (Discharge), which remove the color from the fabric. The color-fast reproduction plays a big role on which we attach great importance. Plastisol inks and pigment inks can be mixed and printed according to solid colors such as Pantone® color values.
COLOUR ACCURACY IN SCREEN PRINTING
In the screen printing process it is possible to achieve a very nice color accuracy. The ink can be mixed to match your desired solid colors according to Pantone, HKS, RAL or CMYK.
OVERVIEW OF DIFFERENT SCREEN PRINTING COLORS
WHITE PLASTIC AND WATERCOLOR
Printing white on dark textiles is possible with various ink systems. These include water-based inks and solvent-based plastisol inks. However, the opacity of the color is always important, which is adapted to the design in the given cases. Through the opacity you also have the possibility to achieve certain effects and to design the textile in the best possible way. In this overview we illustrate different possibilities in terms of opacity.
COLOURED PLASTISOL AND WATER-BASED PAINT
To perfectly implement a colored coverage on a dark textile, this works as with pure white printing. Either with an underprint or with a multiple print. You can also control the opacity and achieve certain effects with a small amount of ink. To get a perfect result in the interaction of haptics and coverage, a mixture of etching and regular screen printing is recommended.
DARK PLASTISOL & WATERCOLOUR
Black or coloured printing on light textiles is far less problematic than on dark garments. On light fabrics you have full coverage and there is no need to underprint. This influences the colour application and you get a very fine feel. If desired, a raised layer can be applied to the textile with the appropriate additives to achieve a raised effect.
SCREEN PRINTING - THIS IS HOW IT WORKS
The screens are exposed with your motif and a screen printing stencil is created on the fabric. In those places of the fabric where no color is to be printed according to the print image, the mesh openings of the fabric are made impermeable to color by a stencil. After creating the frame, we brace the screen printing frames in a so-called carousel and perfectly match all the individual colors and surfaces to each other. Now the color is pressed through the screen with a screen printing squeegee and fixed on the textile by means of a continuous dryer or intermediate dryer in the case of multi-color screen printing and thus made durable.

SCREEN PRINTING IRIS PRINTING PROCESS
Through years of experience in screen printing, our team masters a variety of different printing techniques. Iris printing is here a special type of screen printing and always ensures a visually impressive result through many colors. By mixing the colors directly on the screen itself, it is also possible to create single or multi-colored color gradients in the screen printing process. Our printers are specialists in iris printing and will realize your color gradients with the highest precision with the rubber squeegee.

FAQ around the topic screen printing
How does ink actually get through the screen in screen printing?
In screen printing, ink is printed with the help of a squeegee through a fabric that is clamped in a screen printing frame. Screen printing is a printing process that can be printed manually or automatically.

Screen printing on textiles - Is screen printing actually the right technology for me as a customer ?
We select the right finishing technique depending on your printing specifications. If screen printing is not the right technique due to the print run or many printing inks, we will be happy to recommend you all other offers appropriate to the number of pieces and printing process.
What are the advantages of embroidery compared to screen printing ?
In general, one of the main differences between embroidery and screen printing is the feel and look. Wash resistance is consistent with both printing methods and similar effects can be achieved. Feel free to contact our team and we will find the optimal printing techniques.
Screen Printing VS Digital Printing ?
Screen printing is always best for larger print runs, but if the print run is smaller or a print motif has a lot of printing colors, digital printing is more suitable. In screen printing, the process of setting up the machines is always very time-consuming and this is reflected in the price, especially in small runs. In digital printing, even small productions from 10 pieces are conceivable.
