International Coatings is excited to introduce its new HDB Digital System™, created specifically to optimize hybrid digital print applications. The HDB System allows digital garment ink to be printed faster, and with sharper resolution, better color and wash fastness.

 

Hybrid prints combine a screen print underbase with an inkjet-type print. The results are clear, crisp digitally-printed images on garments. Hybrid direct-to-garment printers offer today’s garment decorators the ability to fulfill small to medium multi-color print jobs quickly and more economically. Hybrid prints can be printed up to four times faster than traditional DTG printing and the HDB inks typically cost a quarter of digital white underbase inks.

 

International Coatings’ HDB Digital System™ is an easy-to-use 3-component/ step system comprised of the following:

 

  1. HDB primer coat for either cotton or hard-to-print synthetics
  2. HDB Synthesis Receiver Base™ (part A and B)
  3. HDB Optimum Clear™

 

With the HDB Digital System™, digital ink is printed wet-on-wet on the HDB underbase, eliminating the need to flash.

 

The HDB Digital System™ enables digital printing on light and dark garments and provides a vibrant, smooth, and durable finish. The HDB low-bleed system is designed to block bleed for digital printing on polyester, synthetic and performance fabrics.

 

The HDB Digital System™ is available through International Coatings’ exclusive network of distributor companies.
