With manufacturers and ad specialty companies constantly pushing for shorter runs for their plastic molded products, it is no wonder why 20% of the nearly 10,000 printing lines worldwide have already converted to digital. Another 50% are expected to convert by next year. Digital heat transfers allow for cost-effective, full-color (cmyk+w) decoration for short-run, fast-turn projects.
Digital Heat Transfers Make Plastic Decoration Quick and Affordable
Set Up is Quick, Easy, and Affordable
Digital heat transfers are computer-generated images, meaning set up is quicker and easier than traditional methods. Hello, quicker turnaround times! Digital printing is also much more affordable.
“There are none of the traditional set-up requirements or costs,” explains Matt Regan, senior vice president for CDigital, formerly trademarked as Grafixx. “Screens, blankets, dies and print stations for each color aren’t needed, so turn times are measured in days (often one), rather than weeks.”
Short Runs are Possible…and Affordable
With traditional decorating methods (pad printing, screen printing, etc.), even traditional heat transfers, large quantities need to be purchased in order to make the order cost effective. This is not true with digital heat transfers. Click Here to learn more.
Incorporate Variable Data
With traditional plastic decoration methods, each and every image is identical.
“Any product being decorated with a digital transfer can have variable data included in each image in a run – barcodes, photos, text or numbers – making the ultimate short run of one possible and economical,” said Regan.
Full Color Transfers
“Being digital, an almost endless array of process colors can be built using the cmyk+w spectrum,” said Regan. Click Here to learn more.
