Silk screen printing
Screen printing is the most common method of decorating bottles. This method offers a variety of decorating effects. A screen is made from the artwork supplied by the customer using a photographic technique to transfer the image. The image is in reverse which allows ink through the screen to print the artwork. The plain area of the design is blocked by the solid area on the screen. It provides a print image by forcing ink through a photographically treated screen. Each color is applied in a separate pass. With each color, a new screen (separate pass) is required which will increase costs and loss factors. Flame treating is usually required for silk screening on most plastic substrates. Silk Screen printing is available in Organic, Ceramic finish on glass. |
