For digital printing, Crouvezier Développement has two printing processes, one for natural fibre fabrics and one for synthetic fibre fabrics:
- Sublimation/Transfer printing for polyesters:
Printing is done on paper with sublimable inks that have the ability to migrate from the paper surface to the fabric through a calender step, with a defined temperature and pressure.
- Ink-jet printing with reactive dyes for cellulosic fibres (cotton, linen, hemp, viscose, ...) :
Printing is done directly on the fabric and fixated in following steps. Digital printing is an interesting technique because it allows to produce small series in a short time and therefore allows a great reactivity.
You can create a design on computer and it will be directly printed on the textile, without any limit of colours and patterns: it is possible to print large patterns with great accuracy!
