T-Shirt Printing
There are 2 types of T-Shirt Printing. The one is screen printing and the other is Poli-Flexing. We chose to do poly-flexing instead of screen printing, because, screen printing washes off and starts to fade not long after is it applied to the garment Poly-Flexing is a market leader in textile heat transfers.
- The process starts off by designing the logo or the image that needs to be printed on the garment.
- The design then gets sent to the plotter that dye-cuts the logo out of the poly-flex.
- For full digital graphics...... the design gets sent to a Roland versa cam digital printer.
- When the design is finished, we weed away the extra poly-flex that is not needed in the design.
- The design then gets a self adhesive paper over so that the heat doesn’t damage the poly-flex.
- Now the design is ready to go onto the garment.
- The design and the garment go into a industrial digital heat press.
- The heat press then raises its temperature to 160 C.
- Pressure then gets applied to the Poli-Flex and the garment.
- The heat of the press is now melting the Poli-Flex into the shirt and the poli-Flex is taking the pattern of the material
- After 20 seconds of extreme heat and pressure, the Digital Press raises up and you have a printed logo on your garment.
