PUFF SCREEN PRINT A3 1 COLOR

WHAT IS PUFF SCREEN PRINTING?

Puff screen printing is a variant of traditional screen printing that uses a special ink with expanding additives that, when heat is applied, puffs up slightly and creates a raised effect on the garment. The result is a soft, puffy, 3D design, very striking both visually and to the touch.

How does it work?

1. The design is prepared just like regular screen printing.

2. A puff ink is used (plastisol ink with an expanding additive).

3. After printing the design onto the garment, it’s cured with heat (oven or heat press).

4. The heat causes the ink to expand and create volume.

Key features:

• Raised, soft, puffy finish.

• Provides a modern and eye-catching effect.

• Works best with simple designs, few colors, and bold lines.

• Commonly used in streetwear, fashion drops, and premium garments.

When is puff screen printing a good option?

• If you want to add texture without embroidery.

• If you want a more eye-catching result than flat screen printing.

• If your design is minimalist or typographic.

Important:

• Not recommended for very small details or thin lines (they may lose definition as the ink expands).

• Slightly more expensive than regular screen printing, but the result is more exclusive.
