The Three Print Technologies: Screen, Pad, and Digital

Our comprehensive ink portfolio supports various printing methods:

• Screen Printing: Ideal for the production of large quantities of hollow ware, glassware and bottle with large surface coverage, sharp contours and a variety of effects.
• Pad Printing: Perfect for complex shapes like curved surfaces, providing strong adhesion and high contour sharpness.
