Hand Screen Printing
Facilities
6 tables, each 13 meters long with a capacity to print a total of 500 to 800 meters per day depending upon the design and the number of colours.
The tables are wax coated with adjustable registration guides.
We have a large collection of designs both traditional and contemporary. New designs are created either for our own collection or for a specific client.
There is no limit to the number of colors that can be printed, though ideally for efficient production we recommend a limit of 8 to 9 colors.
Fabrics
We can print on all natural fibers like cotton, silk, linen, jute etc.
Dyes used
- Pigments ( water based)
- Reactives
- Rapid Fast and Indigo Solubles
- Napthols and Bases
- Acids
We do not use natural dyes because the water available at our studio workshop is too hard and dose not suit the use of natural dyes. But we also believe that moderation is the key to sustainability and excess use of natural dyes could cause as much damage to the environment as chemical dyes.
All the water from the processing of printed textiles is treated, cleaned and filtered for recycling within our workshop. The system is so elegant and simple that it has to be seen to be believed.
