How Textile Chemical Dyes Impact the Environment?
In the vibrant world of fashion and textiles, colors play a pivotal role in capturing our imagination and defining our sense of style. The captivating hues of our garments owe their brilliance to a significant yet often overlooked aspect of the industry: chemical dyes.
These dyes have revolutionized the textile sector, making it possible to produce a wide array of colors and patterns that appeal to consumers' ever-changing tastes. However, amidst this rainbow of possibilities lies a dark truth - the environmental impact of textile chemical dyes.
In this blog, we delve into the consequences of using chemical dyes in textile production and explore sustainable alternatives that can help mitigate the ecological footprint of the fashion industry.
Tumblr media
Water Pollution
One of the most significant environmental concerns associated with chemical reactive dyes in textiles is water pollution. Conventional dyeing processes often involve large amounts of water, which is used to rinse and treat fabrics. As a result, vast quantities of chemically-laden wastewater are discharged into rivers and water bodies, contaminating aquatic ecosystems. Many of these dyes are non-biodegradable and can persist in the environment for decades, disrupting the natural balance and threatening the health of aquatic organisms.
Energy Consumption
The process of digital textile sublimation inks requires substantial energy inputs, primarily during the dye application and fixation stages. Traditional dyeing methods may involve high-temperature dye baths and extended processing times, adding to the industry's carbon footprint. The energy-intensive nature of these processes contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, accelerating climate change and its devastating consequences.
Toxic Chemical Exposure
Chemical dyes used in textile auxiliaries manufacturers often contain hazardous substances such as heavy metals, formaldehyde, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Not only are these substances harmful to the environment, but they also pose significant health risks to the workers in the textile industry who are exposed to them daily. Moreover, consumers may experience allergic reactions and skin irritations when in contact with garments containing residual dye chemicals.
Biodiversity and Land Contamination
When dye wastewater finds its way into the soil, it can have severe consequences for terrestrial ecosystems. The toxic substances from the dyes can leach into the soil, affecting soil quality and disrupting the delicate balance of local flora and fauna. Moreover, the disposal of waste from dyeing processes can lead to the accumulation of harmful chemicals in landfills, further exacerbating the environmental impact.
 Scarce Resource Consumption
Many chemical dyes rely on non-renewable resources for their production. For instance, some synthetic dyes use petroleum-based derivatives, placing additional strain on dwindling fossil fuel reserves. As these resources become scarcer, the textile industry must find more sustainable alternatives to safeguard the planet's future.
 Embracing Sustainable Solutions
As we confront the ecological consequences of chemical dyes, the textile industry is gradually recognizing the urgent need for change. Embracing sustainable solutions can help mitigate the impact of dyes on the environment:
Natural Dyes: Traditional plant-based dyes, such as indigo, turmeric, and madder, offer a biodegradable and eco-friendly alternative. They can be sourced sustainably, reducing the strain on the environment.
Waterless Dyeing Technologies: Innovative technologies, like air dyeing and digital printing, minimize water usage and eliminate the discharge of wastewater, significantly reducing water pollution.
Biodegradable Dyes: Researchers are developing biodegradable dyes that break down naturally over time, circumventing the issue of persistent chemicals in the environment.
Eco-Friendly Dyeing Processes: Manufacturers can adopt low-impact dyeing techniques that consume less energy and minimize toxic chemical usage, ensuring a cleaner and safer environment for all.
The use of chemical dyes offers by textile printing ink exporter in the textile industry has undoubtedly made fashion more colourful and accessible. However, this innovation comes at a high cost to our environment. From water pollution to biodiversity loss, the impact of chemical dyes on the planet is far-reaching.
To ensure a sustainable future, it is imperative for the industry to embrace eco-friendly alternatives and implement responsible dyeing practices. By taking steps towards a more environmentally conscious approach, we can paint a brighter, greener canvas for the fashion world, where creativity and conscience coexist harmoniously.

attention-seeker ミ⁠●﹏
transformers reactions to human modifications. (tattoos, piercings, hair-dye.) headcanons!
optimus prime, bumblebee, prowl. tfa.
sfw / suggestive under cut.
may do more of them, i love this show to death.
optimus prime
"you do this stuff... for fun? huh."
Tumblr media
try as he might, he does not understand the point much.
don't get me wrong, i see animated optimus to be the closest to a mid-twenties rascal as you can get. modifications aren't unheard of for bots. he's not a nun.
however ...
he sees humans as still pretty fragile. so the idea that you like going and having needles shoved into your flesh and jammed through your muscle isn't something he can wrap his helm around at first.
primus forbid you have lots.
imagine him trying to process you explaining that yes, your entire back is covered in ink and you're planning on about five different piercings in the next year.
"so you. you plan on getting two on your back. just because?"
"that's the plan, big guy."
poor mech is lost. though he does enjoy learning more about humanity when he isn't stressing too much about saving it.. so expect questions.
when you suggest getting one of the autobot emblem, his circuits nearly fry.
prowl
"so, what's the significance?"
Tumblr media
i see prowl not writing off the behavior as weird and instead digging for why you pursued this journey.
yes, he sees your tattoo and piercing collection as a journey, because that's what it is, isn't it? years of work and pain to adorn your body to your liking.
he knows that humans are bundled with nerves. there's respect earned. he finds humans to be eerily resilient.
will ask you the meaning of each and every one. piercings less so.
"what does this bird represent?"
"mm.. my sense of liberty."
"a visual representation of the wish to stretch to new horizons. how fascinating. being small in a vast universe with the urge to still explore."
"i also just like hummingbirds."
"mm. i see."
will get onto you once he finds out about the "makeshift" work. finds the mistakes or even forgettable craftsmanship to make you endearing.
bumblebee
"whoa! sick paintjob, human!"
Tumblr media
he LOVES human culture. and you guys can just... change your appearance? count him impressed!
you had dyed your hair to a nice golden yellow to match his frame and he almost jammed his intake shut.
"you can just. do that?!? b-but your helm used to be-"
"hair, bee."
"right, right. it wasn't always that color though!!!"
he thinks it's so cool. real dork about it. totally buzzed out once you spoke about the chemistry that it went to the process though.
he thinks piercings are cute. after all the fusion of metal and organic is kiiind of taboo. you pull it off great.
tattoos make him beg ratchet to let him upgrade his paint. poor old mech is grumpy and over bumble whining him to just let him "get some flames and that's it."
you draw a lot of inspiration from him. will gladly brainstorm your next big change and puff his chassis out like a lil peacock knowing you're willing to get something permanent done in his designation.
nsfw.
optimus prime
"you look like a painting. primus above, you're gorgeous..."
optimus prime enjoys tracing your tats. he kisses the patterns and images as if the pain of the needle remains, glossa licking along thick and thin ink with shuttered optics.
he likes to see goosebumps trail after. kind of a weird fetish (?) but he mostly enjoys how reactive you are and how your inkwork ripples with the movement.
when he finds out your piercings can make you sensitive ...
well, good luck.
optimus at his spark of sparks is such a tease. when you continue to surprise him, it's nice to be in control of that mutual fascination for once.
"you enjoy when i tug.. these?"
nipple piercings.
expect his glossa. he takes special care to even lubricate each of his digits just to toy with your sore nipples.
prowl
"that's it. fall apart for me. just like art..."
prowl is observant. so when you let it slip that you've been holding back on some of what's on your body...
you're on his berth and naked. his optics are hidden behind his sharp visor.
"holding back on me? that's a shame. i thought you knew better than to do that."
is he angry? hardly! but his processor is about to work overtime when you stammer just why you hadn't gone into depth.
genital piercings.
he doesn't say anything for a long time. doesn't ask the millions of questions bombarding his thoughts. his servos do that speaking before he can.
let's just say you start to understand why he deals with tedious and delicate situations. those hands are built for... meticulous attention.
bites. all the areas with piercings. focuses carefully damn near to the square inch of sensitive flesh where it drives you wild.
tattoos? he loves to scrape his digits down em.
loves to doll you up in lingerie that accentuates everything you hide. crotchless, cut-outs exposing yourself until he can't see where the inkwork begins and ends.
robolvrr 2024.

I want to make a BJD wig with raccoon stripes in the hair, but I wasn't sure which method would work best on tencel so time for science.
Results:
Left to right: Rit Dye, Rit Dyemore, Gouache, Acrylic, Alcohol ink, Pastel
Rit Dye works on tencel, but it's too hard to control for this stripey hair design I want.
Rit Dyemore doesn't stick. Wasn't really expecting it to stick super well since tencel isn't 100% synthetic. but threw it in the batch just to have results
Gouache somehow both doesn't stick and makes the tencel very crunchy??? Also gouache can be reactivated with water. Low key baffled someone said they've colored a wig with gouache
Acrylic works very well. It got a little crunchy on the stripe I used the most paint on, but it feels soft enough on the other two. I can probably use a lighter hand since I am using black paint. It doesn't really need multiple coarts for opacity.
Alcohol ink works well. Stays soft.
Pastel didn't stick too well.

oh i have another question ! would it be difficult to make your own ink ? imagine making some paper from grass/leaves and using the liquid (boiled down and adding some gum arabic) to make ink and writing down on it :looking: . looking at pen & ink shops has really blown my mind tbh ! there’s so many bright colours and a sparkly two two chromatic inks i didn’t think could be possible (looking at Diamine Shimmer, Troublemaker and Cult Pens Exclusive)
honestly i have no idea!! there are so many really cool ways to make ink, but since fountain pens are easy to clog and require an extremely fine pigment/dye particle size, i think you'd have to look into what ink making methods would be suitable!
UPDATE as ive done some reading!! apparently it is both easy and rather uncomplicated to make fountain pen ink after all! that being said it's still good to be careful and research before you try an ink out. there are a lot of important factors to consider like acidity and reactivity with the pen materials. plus, a lot of simple recipes aren't gonna last long or be very lightfast! you don't really wanna leave egg yolk in your pen for a long time, etc.
i found this writeup pretty neat!

Some stuff in my Sociey 6 shop.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some of my designs in my Zazzle shop.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My designs on RedBubble.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
& AranMade designs on Contrado.
I've been doing more digital designing lately since I injured my elbow and knee. Since I have all these designs, I started uploading them to many print-on-demand sites. It's been an interesting process. Some sites function better than others, but they all seem clunky.
My thoughts so far on the various print-on-demand marketplaces.
Spoonflower - I've purchased fabric yardage and a throw pillow cover from them. I used some of that fabric in the quilts and tote bags I made for my nieces.
I've been pleased with what I've received and the time it takes to make and ship. I've made a couple of quilts for gifts with my fabric panels from there, but I'm curious how the fabric will hold up over time. I think it will fade more because it's a direct ink printing process.
& Art of Where - I've purchased fabric yardage from them to make quilts. Their natural fabrics are dyed with reactive dyes, so they have much richer colors that don't fade as much.
They are, however, very slow to make and ship. My experience so far has been 3-4 weeks from the time of order until I receive it. But the print quality of their fabric yardage is excellent, so this is who I'm mainly using to print my quilt top panels.
Society 6 - I've ordered a rug from there before, and it's relatively thin, but I liked that about it. I've also ordered prints and been very happy with them. I like some of the home goods options they have on there (like credenzas), but I haven't gotten anything like that, so I'm not sure how the quality is.
Zazzle - I have not ordered anything from there yet, and uploading designs there is quite tedious, so I'm still working on this one. I do like that they have a cotton throw blanket option. I also get a lot of holiday cards from folks printed from Zazzle, so lots of folks must like what they make.
Contrado - I got all their fabric samples, and they have many lovely options! They use three different print methods depending on the material. Their natural fabric yardage is also reactive dye.
I ordered some neoprene with one of my designs to make a knee brace. I still need to make it, but the material looks great, and the print quality is excellent. The time to make and ship was also relatively quick.
Their products are also more spendy than the others on the list, but they are all made to order in the UK, and they make leather handbags and clothes with edge-to-edge print-to-cut methods.
My only issue with their site is that it only works sometimes when I click the link to my store.

luan/ayalon and zabnki/ayalon for the 'if they had a kid' meme!
Kids Meme - Not Accepting ♥
Tumblr media Tumblr media
► Name: Gabbara Khaya - "Great Life" ► Gender: Male ► General Appearance:
Foreboding height - around 7 ft 5 in when standing at his fullest. Like Zabnki he has a truer height do to his godhood but keeps it under wraps for the power he expels could damage the country. He is rather muscular by genetics from both parents. He is a natural dusk-brunette from Ayalon by dyes it pinks since he reached 14 in human years.
His face holds four eyes, garnet in iris shade and facial ink-markings that resemble that of Zabnki's own. Unlike the curse that they are for Zabnki however, these markings are his weaponry stains to the flesh. They remove themselves when he summons his golden weaponry from its depths.
The right side of his face is scarred terribly right down from the forehead to his chin. The only warning he got from Zabnki's heavy-hand parenting that gave his son the true meaning of power. Zabnki doesn't talk about the lesson he gave Gabbara but it's one that sticks with him. He wears his scar with pride and understands the lesson well taught.
Like Zab, he also has four arms, though he is also known to wield moth-like limbs that appear during sundown. Almost a metamorphosis from War-God to Insect-God. These limbs work like any other really and he likes their oddity. Makes him feel closer to Ayalon.
Tanned flesh, matching Ayalon more so than Zabnki's paled flesh, tattoos by Ayalon's hands and an attitude that's both of his parents mixed in.
► Personality:
Gab was something akin to a piece of shit since birth. Egotistical and violent with a nature to harm more than bow to nature. Though a buzzing being of life between two power Gods, one more than the other, Zabnki and Ayalon had their hands full of the tyrant of a being. To say that Zabnki was heavy-handed wasn't a lie, he didn't shame or see the pain in harming his child in punishments for their behaviour, but a quarrel between himself and Ayalon about his methods were enough to make his hands less violent to their child and instead, took his time to watch and learn from Ayalon's own methods of Motherhood.
Witnessing the blossoming of two flowers, Zabnki understood over time that Gab only acted the way he did because it made him react, and when Ayalon ignored his son's mischief and only praised his good deeds, the change was quick. Zabnki struggled to look over the child on his own, always quick to snap or threaten harm, but under Ayalon's threatening gaze, he held his actions to himself.
You could say Gab grew with a doting Mother that definitely wore the pants in the house, a powerful weight on his shoulders but with a guiding hand. With Zabnki, it was a reactive boiling pot, ready to spill over, Gab couldn't say why or how it got violent in terms between them but it only took one true battle of the two battle gods to understand why his Father, Zabnki, was very different.
Around the age of 15-17 in human years, Zabnki and Gabbara fought, weaponry and death dance included. In ended up with Gab's face being sliced in near half and impaled by golden weaponry that overpowered his own. He learnt that day, that his Father was not a nurturing God like his Mother, who was capable of destruction and healing, but a being made only for violence and carnage that learnt how to be a calmness under the storm.
That day allowed the two to bond, though Zabnki did get an earful from Ayalon and a banning from the house for a month or so for the harm caused. Still, it was a lesson that made Gabbara re-evaluated himself in attitude. Now he is more arrogant to get a rise from his enemies and an observant giant with a head filled with questions.
► Special Talents:
Tyrant of War - An offspring of the Lord of Dance, Gabbara has the genetic flow of War in his veins, though not a complete War God, he is worshipped as such alongside Zabnki. He holds some title of the battlefield but in a way that's different to the mindless bloodshed. His Dance is more of a Victory Blessing, a divinity of who will win, those that witness his Dance of Golden weaponry and flow of power, as boosted with his blessing, given the birth of flame in their cores and march forward with true trust in the God's roar for war.
He is not the God of War, but a Being of Victory between it all. He is claimed to be a Tyrant however due to his duality of flipping the tables when he is maddened by his chosen side. After all, the Gods are not human friends.
Life & Death connection - is a little more obscured, it's a private thing he and his Mother have together. He takes on the burden of his gifts in the silence of prayer with Ayalon. Learning of his Mother's origins and taking in the strides of their struggles but also the understanding that he is not all powerful as Ayalon, he could be stronger but not with how his mind is at the moment. Still, he takes time in learning his connections to Death and Life, and believes his gifts are more of 'keeping the balance' without putting his hands upon it.
Thus, it's possible to put his abilities and purpose to 'balance to life and death of war' he is the fairness and unfairness of war's destruction but also the bringer of new times for those that survived.
► Who they like better: Ayalon, in terms of emotional connection. ► Who they take after more: Zabnki ► Personal Head canon: He is more insect than the norm, which is due to Ayalon's genes. His species if akin to the Emperor Moth (Saturnia pavonia) ► Face Claim: Ryoma Sukuna from Jujutsu Kaisen
Tumblr media Tumblr media
► Name: Jair Souso ► Gender: Male ► General Appearance:
Mop of shaggy cut black and blonde strands, a little longer than Luan's hair but just as thick as Ayalon's own. Jair's adopted Aya's two-tones, liking the way it is but mostly on the ends of his hair at the back and sides, rather than the complete underside of his strands.
His gaze is a mix of green and gold, not really Luan's shade but they share the same eye shape and sharp brow. Jair constantly looks like he hasn't slept for 90 years though, Luan's not sure who's that's off.
Lanky but fit in the sense of having good meat on his bones. Angled chin and filled cheeks - stubble is limited but often mostly gold wisps.
He is just under Ayalon's chin, making him taller than Luan but not too much.
Skin tone is rather pale but can easily be flipped into a bronzed tan from the sun. He does have patches of high pigmentation in his neck and around his knuckles and back of the hands. These tend to be a form of 'freckles' when exposed to sunlight for a long time.
► Personality:
Could say moody - but more honestly a quiet child. He likes to keep to himself and live in his own bubble of thoughts. Avid reader type but without books, more phones and tablets these days. He's quiet the nerd in his hobbies of graffiti art and urban drawings. He's a big fan B/an/ksy's pieces and will often replicate them for himself in his notebook. He follows Ayalon in the department of art talents, but doesn't want to go into the tattooing world. Jair's more interested in large canvases and secret painting jobs to let his sing for itself.
His art tag is a purple Silk Moth.
Out of his shell, he's amazingly talkative, rambles with ideas that flow and will often trip himself up in verbal release when he gets too into it. Slowing him down takes only a drink or a meal to make him chew or swallow between thoughts.
Jair's easy to get along with even if the first meeting will seem like he isn't interested but he just has a wall up to keep his bubble to himself in social situations most the time.
► Special Talents:
Eyes of Rebirth, as simple as it sounds, his gaze as haunting and dead as it can be - is in fact able to witness the flow of the soul's journey. Knowing exactly when and where their soul will end up in the next life. Be it into the core of a woman's stomach passing by, a flower upon the sidewalk or into the clouds where it'll be torn apart within a scattering of pieces to be mixed with others and reborn another time.
Jair's vision is colours through the souls of others, thus the closer someone is to Death the greyer his world is. Only when they do die and the soul exposes itself, does his colour return in the burst of it going elsewhere.
He isn't really able to do much about the souls, though he can touch them, hold and caress, he doesn't really know what else to do. He feels limited in his ability but thinks of it as enough to allow himself some kind of peace in aiding some souls go skyward or holding onto the darker souls of those that committed crimes. He won't say if he eats them, but he eats them.
► Who they like better: Ayalon for his art things, Luan for conversation ► Who they take after more: Luan, in the human department of excitement and exploration. ► Personal Head canon: He's more human than God, but his eyes are special. He likes to keep his abilities to himself, especially around Luan since he is fully human and he doesn't want to speak of his own parent's soul colour yet. ► Face Claim: Towa from Slow Damage

How Digital Printing is Revolutionizing the Textile Industry
Introduction
In today’s fast-paced world, innovation is reshaping industries, and the textile sector is no exception. One of the most groundbreaking changes in recent years has been the rise of digital printing, which is revolutionizing how textiles are designed, produced, and delivered. As businesses increasingly seek to stay ahead of consumer demand for personalized, efficient, and sustainable solutions, digital printing is becoming a cornerstone of modern textile manufacturing. This article delves into how digital printing is transforming the textile industry, its key benefits for B2B clients, and what the future holds for this dynamic technology.
Overview of Digital Printing in Textiles
Digital textile printing is the process of printing designs directly onto fabric using inkjet technology. Unlike traditional printing methods such as screen printing, which rely on physical templates or screens, digital printing eliminates the need for such tools. This allows for a more efficient process, capable of producing highly detailed designs in smaller quantities and with greater customization.
Digital printing is gaining rapid momentum in the textile industry due to its flexibility, efficiency, and capacity for intricate designs. It is used across various sectors including fashion, interior design, and industrial textiles, and is especially appealing to B2B markets where precision, quick turnaround, and customization are critical.
clothing manufacturers India
Why Digital Printing is Gaining Popularity in the Textile Industry
The shift from traditional printing methods to digital printing is largely driven by the changing demands of the textile market. Today’s B2B clients are increasingly looking for solutions that offer greater flexibility, reduced waste, faster production times, and higher precision—all while maintaining competitive pricing.
Several factors contribute to the growing popularity of digital printing in textiles:
Customization: Digital printing allows for easy customization, making it ideal for businesses that need to produce unique or personalized fabrics.
Shorter Production Runs: Traditional methods require bulk production to be cost-effective, but digital printing is perfectly suited for short production runs, reducing inventory and waste.
Sustainability: Digital printing consumes less water and ink compared to traditional printing, making it an eco-friendly option.
Speed: With the ability to bypass many labor-intensive steps of traditional printing, digital methods drastically reduce turnaround times.
Understanding Digital Printing Technology
How Digital Printing Works in Textiles
Digital textile printing uses advanced inkjet technology to transfer digital designs directly onto fabric. Here’s a simplified breakdown of the process:
Design Creation: A digital image is created using graphic design software.
Fabric Preparation: The fabric is pre-treated to ensure proper ink absorption and durability.
Ink Application: Specialized inkjet printers apply the design onto the fabric. These printers use different types of inks depending on the fabric being printed.
Post-Processing: Once printed, the fabric undergoes heat treatment or steaming to fix the ink and ensure longevity.
Types of Digital Printing Methods
Direct-to-Garment (DTG): Ideal for printing on finished garments like t-shirts or bags, this method prints the design directly onto the fabric.
Dye Sublimation: This method uses heat to transfer dye onto polyester fabrics, creating vibrant and long-lasting prints.
Reactive Printing: Commonly used on natural fibers like cotton and silk, reactive printing ensures that the dye chemically bonds with the fabric for permanent designs.
Pigment Printing: This method involves applying a pigment onto the surface of the fabric, often used for a range of materials, including synthetic blends.

Key Advantages of Digital Printing Over Traditional Methods
Digital printing offers numerous advantages compared to traditional textile printing methods like screen printing or rotary printing. These advantages are particularly valuable in a B2B context where efficiency and quality are paramount.
No Minimum Order Requirements: Unlike screen printing, which requires bulk orders to justify the setup costs, digital printing allows for economical short runs.
Detailed Designs: Digital printing can reproduce intricate patterns and designs with a higher resolution, enabling businesses to offer more complex and visually appealing products.
Less Waste: The technology uses significantly less water and ink, contributing to lower waste and a more sustainable production process.
On-Demand Production: With digital printing, B2B clients can easily order fabrics on demand, reducing excess inventory and storage costs.
Applications of Digital Printing in Textiles
Customization and Personalization
One of the greatest strengths of digital textile printing is its ability to create customized fabrics. In sectors like fashion, interior design, and promotional products, customers increasingly demand unique items that reflect their personal tastes or brand identity. Digital printing allows manufacturers to offer this level of personalization without the need for costly setup processes.
Short Runs and On-Demand Printing
Traditional printing methods often require large production runs to be cost-effective. Digital printing, however, excels at producing short runs, making it a practical solution for B2B clients who need small quantities of fabric quickly. This is particularly useful for companies that need to test designs or produce limited-edition products.
Innovative Design Capabilities
With digital printing, there are no limitations on colors, patterns, or gradients. This opens the door to innovative and creative design possibilities, enabling manufacturers to produce textiles with photorealistic images, detailed patterns, and even 3D effects.

Faster Turnaround Times
In industries where speed is crucial, digital printing offers a competitive edge. The elimination of complex setup processes means orders can be fulfilled quickly, allowing businesses to respond to market demands with agility.
Higher Precision and Quality
Digital printing provides a level of precision that traditional methods can’t match. This high level of accuracy ensures that every detail of the design is captured, providing superior quality and reducing the risk of errors.
Case Studies: Companies Using Digital Printing Effectively
Successful Implementation of Digital Printing
Several companies in the textile industry have successfully integrated digital printing into their production processes. For instance, large fashion brands have utilized digital printing to create vibrant, unique designs that appeal to modern consumers.
B2B Partnerships Benefiting from Digital Printing
B2B partnerships benefit greatly from the flexibility of digital printing. From customized uniforms to branded promotional materials, digital printing allows businesses to provide their clients with high-quality, personalized textiles without the high costs associated with traditional printing methods.
Creative Applications of Digital Printing in Fashion and Beyond
Digital printing is not only transforming fashion but also extending into other sectors like home decor and industrial textiles. For example, companies in the interior design space are using digital printing to create bespoke curtains, upholstery, and wallpaper.

Dyes : The World of Colors
Colors make our world vibrant, and dyes are the magical ingredients that bring life to everything around us. Let’s explore the colorful universe of dyes, breaking down the various types and their fascinating uses in everyday life.
Understanding Dyes:
Dyes are like special paints that add color to different things. Humans have been fascinated by colors for a long time, and dyes play a huge role in making our world colorful. There are two main types of dyes: natural and synthetic. They are used to add color to items like utensils, textiles, leather products, and even food.
Types of Dyes:
Basic Dyes:
These dyes are made in labs and give really bright colors. They are great for adding color to things like acrylic fibers and synthetic materials.

Modern and non-toxic, these dyes are used in upcoming textile mills. They are convenient but may be more expensive. Solvent dyes are seen as alternatives to traditional harmful dyes.
Food Dyes:
Added to food to make it look attractive, food dyes come in various forms. It’s important to use them carefully as excessive consumption can lead to health problems. They are either natural or artificial.
Application of Dyes:
Textiles: Dyes are extensively used in the textile industry to color fabrics, clothing, and other textile products. They can be applied through various methods such as dyeing, printing, or painting.
Plastics: Dyes enhance the appearance of plastic products, providing them with a wide range of colors and finishes.
Printing: Inks, whether for traditional printing or modern digital printing, often contain dyes to produce vibrant and accurate colors.
Food: Food dyes are used to add color to various food products, making them visually appealing. These dyes can be natural or synthetic.
Industrial Use: Dyes find applications in various industrial processes, including coloring materials like leather, creating inks for pens and printers, and contributing to the production of a wide array of products.

Conditions + Medications - what's it got to do with tattoos?
Hey friends!
You may have noticed in my form, I do ask if you're on any medications. It can be very personal, so why do I and others ask?
Though your tattoo artists should be informed about their tattoo process; wearing gloves, sterilisation, cleaning and disposal methods. We do not have the training or education to properly advise a customer on their health condition.
So it's always important to approach a trusted health care professional if you have concerns about how receiving a tattoo may be affected by any conditions you have, or medications you take.
Some main things that nay affect you, that could affect your tattoo process and healing include:
Acne medications
Antibiotics
Blood thinners
Chronic skin conditions
Anti-rejection drugs
Pregnancy
Immunocompromised Individuals
Acne Medication (Accutane, Minomycin (or any other Tetracycline-related medication)
Acne medication can make your skin hyper sensitive. The process of getting tattooed may be more painful, and as a tattoo is healing your skin may also be sensitive and reactive. Sometimes you may not present side effects during a process but during the healing, vice versa. Your tattoos can scar up, and in some cases develop keloid scars. Removal is possible, but this can also lead to further keloids developing. Health care providers may suggest waiting six months to a year for it to be out of your system.
Antibiotics
Not all antibiotics cause skin reactions, however some people may experience unusual skin reactions. Usually when prescribed antibiotics, you body is fighting infection. Getting a tattoo, essentially an open wound which makes you susceptible to germs, bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. So your immune system is WORKING, which can delay the healing process.
Blood thinners
Though bleeding is normal during a tattoo process, blood thinners can cause you to bleed more during the process. This can effect the outcome of your tattoo (ie, bleeding more can mean it's harder for ink to be put in the skin), and it can mean you're more susceptible to infections. You may not be able to receive a tattoo, or you may just have to do the tattoo in smaller sessions.
Chronic skin collection
This can include; psoriasis, vitiligo, pigmented lesions. Getting a tattoo on or near a chronic skin condition, can result in a flare up or cause Kobner phenomenon. Kobner phenomenon is when the the skin will flare up and inflamed due to trauma.
Anti-rejection drugs
Usually taken after receiving a transplant, the drugs you take after can result in a weaker immune system, so you're less able to fight off infections or issues. It's important that your overall health is strong enough to withstand the stress of getting tattooed and if the drugs may interfere with the healing.
Pregnancy
As it's popped up a couple of times, infection is a huge thing while getting tattooed. If contaminated or dirty needles are used, you could be at risk of getting bloodborne infections. Bloodborne infections such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Particularly for hepatitis B and HIV, there is medium to high change either can easily pass on the infection to her baby at birth.  Babies with hepatitis B then have a high risk of developing a lifelong infection.
There's also little information is available about the safety of skin dyes and ingredients used for tattooing during pregnancy. This may affect development of main organs during first trimester, brain development or can cause miscarriage or stillbirth.
Similarly with breastfeeding, there is a risk of infection being passed to the baby. Though it's not strictly prohibited, but it's generally strongly discouraged by medical professionals.
Immunocompromised Individuals
This can include: heart conditions, diabetes, inherited/acquired blood disorder. Generally it's a case to case basis for individuals, you want to make sure you're in good health for your body to handle the process and healing of a tattoo. As with having a chronic condition, it may take to heal, or if you have a higher risk of infections.
For the extra nerds, there's this online book you can read:
Do your research, and chat to your health care providers to make decisions about enquiring with an artist. It's always super important to make sure you're in good health for the process and healing of your tattoos!

Digital Textiles in India – Bliss Impex in Gurgaon
Tumblr media
One of the most striking things about visiting India is just how colorful everything is – from shopfronts and market stalls to the clothes that people wear out and about.
I wanted to get a better understanding of the Indian textile market and fortunately, Ekansh Jain, the owner of Bliss Impex, was happy to show me around his factory. The Bliss Impex name is already known to readers outside India, thanks to Durst’s marketing department announcing back in 2019 that the company had just bought four Durst Alpha textile printers.
At that time, Jain said that he invested in the four Durst machines in order to expand the company. This has obviously worked as he bought two more printers, one each from Epson and EFI, at the start of this year, both of which were being installed when I was there in February of this year.
http://indianprinterpublisher.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BlissImpex_Reggiani_L1030251_WQ-web750cor.jpg
Three of the Durst Alpha 190s were set up with reactive inks and are still going strong, side by side. These have a print width of 190cm with a print resolution of up to 600 dpi. Jain was in the process of moving the fourth Durst machine, an Alpha 180, downstairs where it will become the first machine on a new production floor of the same size. This machine prints to transfer paper for dye sublimation to polyester.
Alongside the Alphas, a new Epson Monna Lisa 32000 was installed at the start of the year. This is fitted with 32 of Epson’s PrecisionCore printheads, which can produce up to 697 square meters an hour in a single pass at 300 x 600 dpi, or 423 square meters an hour in two passes at 600 x 600 dpi. It uses Epson’s Reactive Genesta inks. It’s available in 240cm and 340cm widths as well as the 180cm size installed at Bliss Impex.
Right at the end of the line was a brand new 32-head EFI Reggiani Power, for which they were still making the profiles. This can print to fabric at up to 1020 square meters an hour in a single pass at 600 x 300 dpi or up to four passes for 600 x 1200 dpi, which produces 295 square meters an hour. Again, Bliss Impex has opted for the 180cm size though Efi also offers 240 and 340cm widths.
There’s also an Atexco printer from China, which uses a camera for registration of double-sided prints to ensure the prints on the front and back line up. Bliss Impex uses the Atexco to produce a particularly nice effect of printing color on top of a material that’s already been embroidered.
Bliss Impex runs three shifts a day and Jain says that he only buys digital printers from vendors that have local service support. He says, “I always like to have a service team based here. Epson and EFI have their own team here. They will do the profiling and then they will leave one person to make sure that it runs.”
He adds, “Once the heads go, we recycle them. We have an agreement with the European companies so they take care of them. I would rather not run a faulty head but recycle it and get the right quality.”
http://indianprinterpublisher.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Web750corr.jpg
Besides the digital machines, Bliss Impex also operates a range of conventional rotary and flatbed textile printing machines, as well as a label printer and also has an export arm. Jain says, “I have really upset the market by dropping the prices right down but the advantage is that I’m not trying to compete with other digital printers. I’m competing with my rotary.”
He continues, “When I first thought of putting these digital printers together people thought I was mad because it’s hard to run one machine let alone several big machines. My thinking was that I never had to compete with the market as I always competed with my own rotary work. I wanted to be in the market for this technology as I thought it was the future.
“And with digital I am putting more work through than with the rotary machines and it’s all on the same floor. It’s clean and hygienic. It’s better working conditions for the employees. It’s all sustainable.”
He says that a lot of people have now moved into digital printing but adds, “I would challenge anyone to find better quality with digital.” For this reason, he is also cautious about the current trend in textile printing towards pigment inks. He says, “I’m still going for reactive. I think that pigment needs more research and needs to be more cost-effective to really compete because it doesn’t have the easy hand feel of the reactive.”
He continues, “I can see a lot of advantage in bringing lower consumption of water but we still need to wait another few years more for pigment to reach the cost and performance of reactive.” He adds, “The pigment ink costs are more than double and the consumption is triple.”
http://indianprinterpublisher.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/BlissImpex_Alpha190_L1030244_WQWeb500.jpg
Naturally, with so many printers, he has considered investing in a single-pass inkjet machine but doesn’t think the print quality is as good. He explains, “The reason I don’t want to use single pass is that with the multi-pass you can increase the colour intensity by increasing the number of passes. But I can’t control this with a single-pass printer.” He adds, “And in my case, I have many other people to look after where I need to satisfy their quality and their color. And with the single pass, I would have to stop the production for the whole line. So I would rather have the multi-pass machines. But I’m still contemplating the single-pass printers.”
Jain says that the Covid pandemic did slow down the company’s growth though the effects of the pandemic are now receding. He says that it changed the world, and left established players with equipment and software that needed to be updated, which is one reason for investing in the new Epson and EFI machines. He adds, “You need the quality. If you don’t have the quality you can’t find the right buyer.”
But he also says that after the pandemic people wanted to use more imaginative materials and were concerned about the environmental issues, particularly around water use. This worked in his favor since he was already using digital printing.
Overall, the company is expanding and has a German partner for exports to Europe. Print quality is key to the business despite also facing the same cost pressures that are common to India. But Jain is relaxed with the air of a man who has little to worry about. And given that he’s preparing a second production floor, there’s every chance that we will be hearing more from Bliss Impex as the company continues to build up its digital production capability.
You can find further details on this company from blissimpex.in.
