Trust Gift Wrapped to use the best techniques to personalize your product in the best manner. Following is a brief of some of the commonly used techniques of personalization.

Screen Printing: This method of printing is recommended on almost all flat or semi-flat surfaced objects. The inks used and curing methods vary with the product on which the printing is being done, but the basic method used is the same. A screen, a porous mesh stretched over a tight frame is used as a stencil by photochemical blocking the mesh in all regions except where the print needs to appear.Ink is then forced through the fine mesh openings using a squeegee that is drawn across the screen, applying pressure thereby forcing the ink through the open areas of the screen. Ink will pass through only in areas where no stencil is applied, thus forming an image on the printing substrate.

Fire Printing: This is a technique used for printing on ceramic products. The artwork is screen printed onto special transfer sheets using specific ceramic inks. These sheets are then transferred onto the ceramic product and then heated in a furnace to about 600˚ C. The print on the product is now permanent and should last as long as the product itself. We use in on glassware, ceramic and bonechina mugs and crockeries, etc.

Rubberised/Plastisol Printing: This technique of printing is used on all kinds of fabrics – T-Shirts, Shirts, Sweat Shirts, Caps, Bags, Jackets, Denims, Towels, Linen, etc. Here, a screen is developed to apply the plasitsol/rubber ink onto the fabric. A different screen is used for each cut colour of the art work. The plastisol ink is applied on the fabric through the screen and is then cured by fusing the printed surface to temperatures of about 150˚ C. This is done colour after colour to get the complete image.After proper curing, the finish gives an vivid and bright look.The print should not be directly ironed upon or brushed during wash to improve the life of the print.

Pigment Printing: Pigment printing is used on all fabrics that absorb – T-Shirts, Sweat Shirts, Shirts, Caps, Denims, Towels, Linen, etc. Here, a screen is developed to apply the plastisol/rubber ink onto the fabric. A different screen is used for each cut colour of the art work. The pigment ink is applied on the fabric through the screen. The pigment ink is a very thin ink which gets absorbed by the fabric and does not leave an evident elevation on the fabric(unlike plastisol print). No special care needs to be taken for the print.

Digital Transfer Printing: This technique of fabric printing in used is cases when the artwork is very graphic(not cut-colour). Here a digital print of the graphic is taken on a fabric digital transfer paper. This paper is then fused onto the fabric, transferring the print onto the fabric. This type of print does not have a very long life, but is the best way when very graphic or colourful images need to be printed on the fabric. This type of print does not have a very long life, but is the best way when very graphic or colourful images need to be printed on the fabric. Also, it is relatively expensive to opt for this variety of printing. Commonly used for T-Shirts and Sweat Shirts, it can also be applied on caps, shirts, jackets, bags, etc. The print should not be directly ironed upon or brushed during wash to improve the life of the print.

Embroidery: This is a method of stitching a design onto a fabric surface. This method is recommended for a high-quality finish. A design stitched onto a material through the use of high speed, computer controlled sewing machines. The design is reproduced with tightly-stitched thread. Embroidery is most commonly used on logo patches and directly on some wearables. This is one of the most common personalization practices used for apparel and luggage.

Embossing: Embossing is the process of creating a three-dimensional image or design in paper, leather and other ductile materials. It is typically accomplished with a combination of heat and pressure on the paper. This is achieved by using a metal die(female) usually made of brass and a counter die (male) that fit together and actually squeeze the fibers of the substrate. This pressure and a combination of heat actually "irons" while raising the level of the image higher than the substrate to make it smooth. Done usually on the covers of paper products and on leather/art leather products.

Offset Printing: Offset printing is a widely used printing technique where the inked image is transferred (or "offset") from a plate to a rubber blanket, then to the printing surface. It is used on a large scales of printing due to the consitency offered by this technique. It is used for printing on paper or other flat sheets, primarily for graphic content for brochures, pamphlets and other promotional material.

Pad Printing: The process of Pad printing is the most versatile of all printing processes with its unique ability to print on three-dimensional objects and compound angles. Pad printing machines are deisigned to print on objects at a very high pace with little manual intervention, thus delivering a very high quality of print even on the smallest printing surfaces and for very large quantities. The ink is flooded on a plate where the artwork is etched and then doctored clean, leaving only the image area. The pad, which is a flexible rubbery object is then pressed onto the plate, picks up an impression of the ink on the etched area and is pressed on the object printing the artwork onto the product.
