Flex and Flock Printing
With our plot printing methods, your design is first cut out of various foils with a plotter, then weeded by hand with a great deal of dexterity before it’s pressed onto the product by applying high pressure and heat. Several foils are used that not only differ in color but also in feel.
Our flex, flock and special films are particularly suitable for texts and logos with up to three colors. If your designs consist of more than one color, we put the individual design components together like a puzzle before pressing.
Only designs or text that meet the following conditions are suitable for foil printing:
Maximum 3 colors per design or text (special flex only one color)
The template needs to be a vector graphics file
No color gradients or transparencies
Flex print
Flex-print films are available in many different colors. Flex print has a smooth glossy finish and convinces in terms of color brilliance, even after many washing cycles. As it is flexible and hard-wearing, it is particularly suitable for stretchy fabrics. Turbo flex is used on breathable fabrics.
Flock print
Fock print, on the other hand, is velvety soft and protrudes slightly from the product due to its fluffy surface structure. It looks really good on all cotton products and is just as hard-wearing as flex print.
Special flex
Our special flex print is a real visual highlight. Thanks to various special foils, you can make your design glittery or glow-in-the-dark. Please note: Only one color per text or design is possible with special flex.
