Image crispness is assured by inter-colour LED pinning.

Rotary screen printing remains the dominant method of printing for the wallcovering industry and SPGPrints provides solutions for optimising application quality and workflow efficiency. Tailored solutions for every stage in the rotary screen workflow, including complete printing lines, like the PD5 hybrid printing line, are available for use with SPGPrints’ nickel rotary screens, and direct laser engraving and exposing systems.

SPGPrints’ SpecialScreen® screen programme unlocks the creative potential for wallcovering designers and producers with seamless nickel rotary screens that combine a high mesh-count with a large hole size, enabling fine and detailed printing with large paste particles, without risk of blockage. For excellent reproduction with smooth tonal gradations, fine outline printing, as well as puff, 3D tactile, glitter and reflective effects that offer enhanced sensual appeal, SpecialScreen screens set a new standard.

Highlights of the range include the 100SP/ 40 per cent and 130SP/ 33 per cent customised screens for water-based paste for creating 3D designs. For halftone printing, the 250SP screen achieves a raster of up to 60 l/cm, and is ideal for fine detail printing. Multiple colour runs that use special effects like metallic gold and silver or Iriodine for a high-lustre finish add value and create the unique looks favoured by high-end designers and retailers.

Information on SPGPrints’ wide range of screens and laser engraving systems for textile applications will be available on the Hall 3 stand, enabling visitors to compare the options and receive guidance on selecting the best solution for their specific requirements.
