4 PRINT PROCESSES

Gone are the days of cookie-cutter pen designs and traditional matching shirts with the same logo on every single one. Today’s retailers no longer want what everyone else has. Instead, they want custom, colorful, unique, fashionable items that not only promote their favorite brands, but align with their customer’s personal passions. Brands now must stand out in a sea of advertising chaos by elevating their artistic design campaigns and products that speak to global influences while still maintaining a cohesive look. That also means offering products that aren’t the traditional pen or typical coffee mug.

Retailers must think beyond the basic and really delve into what makes their branding campaigns come alive.

To do so successfully, they must partner with the right companies to create that extra-special product lineup. That’s where The Bandanna Company comes in. With the industry’s only in-house, four USA-made imprinting processes, the company can help you elevate any campaign, from the local real estate agent to the regional car dealer.

Four Imprinting Processes to Capture Every Need

An eye-catching product starts with an eye-catching design. And the right artistic design starts with options for the imprinting process. The Bandanna Company can create completely custom designs for your brand using four in-house, USA-made imprinting processes. Each brings different advantages, all designed to elevate its bandannas a step above other products.

Process No. 1: Digital Printing – Full-Color Option

This versatile printing process involves printing an image directly from a computer-generated design file onto fabric substrates by way of a large-format inkjet printer. Custom Digital Bandannas are created starting with a white cloth before full-color graphics are printed on the front (the back is left solid white).

Process No. 2: Screen Printing – Most Popular

In screen printing, the imprint color is laid down on a dyed piece of cloth. Note that this method doesn’t allow for edge-to-edge printing; all designs must have a border (for example, when starting with a blank 22” bandanna, the imprint size will be 18×18”).

Process No. 3: Rotary Printing – Most Affordable

Rotary printing creates a softer bandanna because the eco-friendly, water-based pigment dyes are absorbed into the cloth. Colors will also appear vibrant for excellent brand matching. Not only is this ideal for your artistic-minded clients, but it also aligns with those that value sustainability.

Process No. 4: Duplex Printing – Exclusive Print Process

Witj our USA Made Paisley Bandannas, the fabric is printed on both sides — a clear outline is produced on both sides of the fabric. The design is applied so skillfully by the printing cylinders that the result may be mistaken for a woven design.

This is a savvy way to provide clients with a unique product they can’t get anywhere else, and that will set them apart from their competitors. It also allows you to shine as the promo partner who could get your customer an exclusive item when others could not.
