Wholesale Discharge Printing
Do you have a bunch of wholesale goods that you need printed but you don’t want to have them printed with plastisol inks? For some materials and goods, plastisol ink isn’t the best suited ink to use; the reason being that plastisol ink becomes hardened when it goes through the dryer. For items that you need a soft ‘hand’ on, like pillow prints or lightweight, breezy garments, you are better off going for a softer alternative. Wholesale discharge printing is one such alternative that you can explore.
Wholesale Discharge Printing
Wholesale discharge printing is a specific type of water based ink printing where a discharge agent has been added. All water based inks contain a solvent, typically with water, that must evaporate to set the print. The discharge agent contained in discharge inks will actually remove the pre-existing color from the garment and replace it with your desired color. Water based inks have the advantage of being thinner than plastisol inks so they can penetrate the fabric to deposit the color instead of simply lying on the surface as with plastisol inks. This is how they produce little to no ‘hand’ to the print when it is set.
Discharge printing, since it’s a water based ink, is generally a little pricier than plastisol ink printing because it cannot be reused. Each batch must be mixed for the project at hand and any excess waste ink cannot be reclaimed like with plastisol inks. The tradeoff is in the softer and more breathable prints that you will see on your custom goods.
