06th March 2019 Eco-Bag Printing Introduction

Eco-Bags as promotional products which are represent the company's brand image, we are always serious about the production process. Each printing method has different effects on your design. The basic categories of Eco-bag printing are Silk-screen Printing, Photo Transfer Printing, Heat transfer printing, Offset printing and Digital Transfer Printing.

Silk-screen Printing:

Mostly used for Non-woven Fabric, Canvas, Nylon Fabric
Printing method: We pull ink across the printing frame, the ink is then forced through the screen and onto the Fabric below.
Ideal Printing color: 1-4 colors
Characteristics: Using printing ink will create stereoscopic effects; the price is more affordable (with the same number of color comparison). As a result of manual operation, there must be some normal deviation.

Photo Transfer Printing:

Mostly used for Non-woven Fabric, Canvas, Nylon Fabric
Printing method: transfer the pattern to the cloth surface by Heating Technology.
Ideal Printing color: Colorful/gradient pattern
Characteristic: Because the printing material contains the plastic, it has the strong texture, and the visual effect is outstanding.

Heat Transfer Printing:

Mostly used for white Fabric such as Nylon Fabric, TC Fabric and so on.
Printing method: when we heated Heat Transfer Ink to a certain temperature, the ink will change from solid state to vapor state and enter into the pores of the Fabric. After the temperature drops, the color will infiltrate into the cloth surface and form an image.Ideal Printing color: color/gradient pattern
Characteristic: it is accurate on image reproduction, and visual effect will be little hazy.

Offset printing: Mostly used for Paper
Printing method: transfer the image and text from the printing plate to the paper by three rollers. It has higher printing quality compared with the digital printing, and there are more after-effect tools.
Ideal pattern color number: unlimited
Features: it is accurate on image reproduction, and because the printing is based on CMYK principle, the finished product is darker than digital version.

Digital Transfer Printing:

Mostly used for Non-woven Fabric, Woven Fabric
Printing method: print the pattern on a layer of plastic coating and then cover the coating with Non-woven or Woven Fabric.

18th Feb 2019 Chinese New Year Gathering in Guang Zhou

13th Feb 2019 Eco-Shopping Bag Expert mailbox 2

Last time we launched the post of the inquiry box of eco-bag expert and we got a lot positive feedback,

so we decided to collect more questions that our clients always ask.

1. What is non-woven Bag? Why we use it for making Eco-Bag?
We use PP non-woven Fabric because it's texture is soft and smooth, waterproof , breathable and elastic. Non-woven bag use for making Eco-Bag as it is easily to degrade in nature, and the price is cheap

2.What is FSC Paper? What is the difference between FSC Paper and Normal Paper?FSC Paper the short name of Forest Stewardship Council, the biggest difference between FSC Paper and Normal Paper is FSC Paper is made of the wood that come from sustainable manage forest , it encourage people to protect forest and the natural habitat , so FSC Paper is more eco-friendly then normal Paper.

3.ow to classify the cotton canvas Fabric? How thick should we we order in Normally? Cotton canvas is basically divided into two types: primary color and dyeing. Primary color is not bleached and dyed, which does not pollute the environment and has a little rich appearance texture of original black dots; as for dyeing, it has been bleached and dyed, with bright colors and variation. The thickness of the cotton canvas is divided into 6a / 8a / 10a / 12a / 14a / 16a.If it is just for the purpose of ordinary promotional materials, usually customers choose 8 oz canvas, if you need it as a product/premium gift, you can choose 12 oz thickness.

4. Why it has difference between the design showed on computer screen and the actual printed bag?This is related to different color principle. The output files on our system usually use the RGB color system, while those used for printing need to use the CMYK color system. RGB is generally known as the color light trichromatic, R (red) red, G (green) green, B (blue), blue, because RGB is the color light, so the color will be more brighter then CMYK.

As or CMYK, it is commonly known as printing four colors: C (Cyan) Cyan, M (Magenta) Magenta, Y (Yellow) Yellow, and K (Black) Black. These colors are composed of solid color materials, and are commonly used in printing or output of large pictures. The more the color is added, the darker it is.

For the same Color seen on the screen, the printing will be darker, so if you want to have the best visual effect, we will suggest using the Color in the PANETONE Color Book as the standard, which will make it easier to estimate the real effect of the object.
