Fabric Printing & Types of Printing

Fabric printing is an exciting way to add a little bit of color to your home. It can be used as a wall decoration, a throw pillow, or even a chair cover. However you choose to use fabric printing, there are some things you should know before you start.

Fabric printing is a process that uses heat to apply colors to fabrics. The most common type of fabric printing is screen printing, which is used on clothing, decorations, and other items.

There are several types of screen printing:

-High-resolution screen printing: This type of screen printing uses a high-resolution photo as the image source. The image must be at least 0.35 mm thick and be able to be transferred onto the fabric in a single pass.

-Low-resolution screen printing: This type of screen printing uses a low-resolution photo as the image source. The image must be printed on the fabric in one or more passes with no more than five colors per pass and no less than one color per pass.

Fabric printing is done by printing on fabric by creating stencils or patterns with paint or rubber stamps. Fabric printing can be done with any type of fabric and it’s often done in a variety of colors and patterns. The most common types of fabric print include:

-Screen Printing: This is when ink is applied directly onto the fabric using screen printing equipment. Screen printed fabrics are usually clear so you can see through them and see where the ink has been applied

-Sublimation Printing: This is an innovative process where heat melts ink onto the surface of the fabric instead of applying it directly onto it

-Polar Fleece: This type of fleece fabric has a special treatment that makes it very soft and cozy; it also looks great because it has no shine factor
