Another key point is the possibility to use simple equipment for their application.
Among the printable substrates there are both natural and synthetics fabrics. With water-based inks, in conjunction with other specific products, different special effects can be achieved: devoré printing (only on certain types of fabrics), puff effect printing, glitter printing, suede effect printing (velvet effect), mytex effect printing, flock effect printing.
With water-based products you can get bright colors on dark backgrounds through Discharge printing, or even print on high temperatures sensitive fabrics thanks to self-curing inks (Mono a freddo).
