Would you like digital printing silk fabrics or screen printed silk fabrics ---By Lynn at Predatex Silk

When customers are buying silk fabric in prints, they are curious about how the prints are made and wonder whether they could print on their own designs.

The answer is surely yes for Predatex Silk Co., Ltd. as we are specialized in producing all kinds of silk fabrics including printing fabrics. Then I would like to introduce you two basic printing ways for our silk items, the digitalprinting and the screen printing.

Firstly, using what kind of printing method depends on your design itself.

When screen printings are most widely and traditionally used because of its cost saving performance and bulk cargo production availability, it has deadly weakness due to its color limitation! Normally the colors of one design should not be too much otherwise the printing machine will not be able to manage. To achieve complex and fruitful color, you have to use digital printings, which required nothing on the color. All designs, no matter how complex it would be, digital prints would always manage!

Secondly, there is no MOQ for digital printings while screen printing would normally require a MOQ of about 200 to 300mtrs.

 The reason is that digital prints can be made directly on a piece of silk fabrics like printing a A4 paper, while for screen printings, you need to engrave first for the design and print only afterwards. If you would like to have a design of only a few dozen meters per design, it will save cost a lot compared to screen printings.

Thirdly, the cost and price are different!

The digital cost is purely counting on how many meters you are preparing to print. The cost would be around USD5.00-USD7.00/meter.(For better price or discount, please kindly contact Predatex Silk directly in private! www.predatextile.com)

The cost for screen printing includes two parts, the engraving cost and the printing cost. The engraving cost would be about USD50/color in one design. However the printing cost is about USD1.00-USD2.00/meter, much cheaper than digital prints!

So, if you would like to run a design in several hundred/thousand meters, the most efficient and cost saving way would be screen.
