Are you involved in the custom screen printing world?  Have you heard about printing with waterbased ink?  Lots of custom screen printing is done with plastisol inks because they’re easy to use and they are cost effective, but they aren’t the only option.  Plastisol inks don’t contain a solvent so you need to heat them to a specific temperature for them to cure which results in a more rigid print than other options.  For promotional goods or heavyweight materials where the softness of the print isn’t a concern, plastisol is perfect, but what if it does matter?  That’s where printing with waterbased ink comes in!

Waterbased ink is a different kind of ink that can be used for screen printing that will give a different feel from your prints.  Waterbased ink does contain a solvent which means it can dry up when exposed to air, so you mix what you need as any excess cannot be reclaimed for future use.  The trade-off is that waterbased inks penetrate deeper into the fabric and leave barely any hand to your print.  Waterbased inks are great for all over prints too because it can easily go across seams and it’s lightweight on the garment despite the full coverage.

Discharge Printing Fabric

Everywhere you look there are printed clothes; hanging in store front windows, or in your closet. Most of them probably have the same kind of print or print style on them. If you want to shake up your wardrobe with something different, like a fun print, adding a specialty print on a shirt, or just a different feel, I know the perfect place that will be able to get you what you need.  Discharge Printing Fabric is the preferred method for achieving little to no hand for each design.

AMBRO Manufacturing is a screen printing company that is always making new strides in the techniques and ways to print garments. We do a lot of water based printing which will result in a very soft shirt that will seem like the ink is not there. One of the ways to accomplish that type is discharge printing fabric. Discharge printing is a process in which ink will bleach out the area of the design on the shirt, leaving a white area.

We can also dye the discharge ink to any color you would like; it won’t yield in a bright vibrant print, but will give you a much softer feel that sometimes you may want. The best colors to use for discharge printing fabric are dark colors, like black, navy and other colors alike. This will give the “bleaching out” a much better base; you will be able to see the design much better.

Come to AMBRO Manufacturing to get that unique piece of clothing that you can’t get anywhere else. You can give us a call any time at (908) 806 8337 or you can email us and we will get back to you with anything you may need to know about discharge printing fabric. We are located in Flemington, New Jersey. If you are located elsewhere in the state, we can have your items shipped out to you very quickly.

Discharge printing on fabric has become super popular over the past few years. Most people like discharge printing on fabric because there is very little to no hand at all after it has been printed. But not many people know much more than that about discharge printing. Like when you choose discharge printing on fabric, the fabric must be a dark (preferably Black) 100% cotton material. This is because the discharge inks are created to deactivate the dyes that are used in the natural materials like cotton. Then once the dyes that were in the fabric have been removed in the shape of your logo you can then add the colors that you would like to have your print to be in.

Not many companies offer discharge printing on fabric let alone offer jumbo or all over discharge printing, but AMBRO Manufacturing just so happen to offer all of those services and much more. We chose to bring in discharge printing because people are always looking to get sublimation on black shirts, but that is impossible so this is the next best thing if they do not want to dye sublimate the shirt to be black. We also love the way it looks and feels as well and how you can do an all over print and it feels as if there is nothing printed onto the shirt. If you have never gotten any discharge printing on fabric done before, we highly recommend you place an order for it so that you can see how truly amazing this print is with your own eyes and hands.

AMBRO Manufacturing would love to help you create your discharge printing but first we need you to pick up the phone and give us a call at (908) 806-8337 or to send us an email so we know what we can do for you.
