Screen printing prints on almost everything<\/h3>

Screen printing is one of the most versatile of all printing processes<\/strong>: It can print on a wide variety of materials, from wafer-thin to several centimetres thick, can control the application of ink up to extremely high ink layer thicknesses, has excellent resistance to sunlight and weathering, high ink opacity and thus leads to a long product life.<\/p>

Whether it’s sugar decorations on a birthday cake, stickers<\/a>, a fashionable T-shirt, paint finishes<\/a> on a book title, a speedometer disk in a car or a limited edition series of pictures in a gallery: they all often have the same printing process in common – screen printing.<\/p>

Synonyms for screen printing<\/h3>

Screen printing has many names in everyday life: In art printing, it is<\/strong> referred to as serigraphy<\/strong> and in the course of internationalization, the term silk screen<\/strong> or screen printing<\/strong> is often used.<\/p>

So how does screen printing work?<\/h3>

Technically speaking, screen printing is stencil printing<\/strong>: the printing form is a screen mesh stretched over a metal frame. The mesh openings are completely sealed, with the exception of the image elements to be printed. Here the openings are free. Using a so-called squeegee, a rubber strip, ink can be pressed through these openings onto the underlying substrate. This creates a printed image on the surface under the screen. <\/p>
