  1. Puff Printing 101: A Brief Introduction! www.garmentprinting.com.au

  2. Overview Have you ever seen a hoodie with a design that appears to be protruding from the fabric? This is puff screen printing, which is currently one of the most prevalent trends in streetwear. But what is puff ink, and how does it lend artwork a three-dimensional appearance? Let’s examine the fundamentals of this novel screen printing technique.

  3. Puff Printing Puff ink printing is a form of screen printing that utilizes specialty ink mixed with a foaming agent activated by heat. The ink is printed using a conventional screen printing technique. Then, as the garment passes through the dryer, the ink puffs up and expands.

  4. Why should puff ink be used? Some individuals desire a unique touch with their screen printing. The majority of print designers conceive in two dimensions. With powder ink, even three-dimensional work is possible. A puffy appearance is a fantastic option for screen printing because it adds dimension. It works wonderfully for text. It can be used to resemble a garment patch.

  5. How can puff ink be used to print T-shirts? You can apply puff ink to the entire artwork or choose specific elements or colours of the design to achieve the desired effect and draw more attention to or “pop” a particular portion of the artwork. There are no fundamental limitations to using puff ink for T-shirt printing, except for designs with tiny details less than 1 to 2 mm wide. We advise clients to ensure that even the slightest detail used with a puff is at least 5mm wide.

  6. Summary Choose screen printing to save money, as it is also more durable. If you like the 3D effect of puff print, your logo should be a manageable size, and the colour scheme should be simple enough.
