Digital vs. Roller-Dye

Digital vs. Roller-Dye

In today's world, digital is everything! This is why Ostanding uses digital sublimation in order to print the perfect window shade. However, there are two different ways to print on fabric. As stated, Ostanding uses digital sublimation, but some companies use roller dye sublimation as their printing choice. Even though there are some similarities between the two, there also differences….two distinct differences that most companies know about. The use of color and the cost of production are usually the basics when comparing the two methods.

Digital sublimation is the use of a printer and sublimation ink in order to print images onto transfer paper. Then, using heat, the image is transferred to the fabric of the customer’s choice. This method isn’t the most cost effective because of the how much it costs to buy heat transfer paper and the process of printing images onto the actual fabric. However, digital sublimation allows companies to print on any type and any size of fabric. Roller dye sublimation is an antiquated process, but it is the most cost effective. The only thing necessary is setting up the actual printer with the sublimation ink inside. However, roller dye printing requires large amounts of fabric. Even though companies may not spend as much money on the printing process, most of the costs do tend to go towards buying fabrics for the process.

Colors are everything. The more colors you have to work with, the more diverse a project actually is. Digital sublimation uses a variety of colors. The only thing a company has to do is set up the sublimation ink. Roller dye printing is only allotted few colors, which doesn’t give off very much diversity.

Digital Sublimation vs. Roller Dye Sublimation

The way that digital sublimation works is through printing an image onto fabric based on different dispersed dyes, which can be sublimated anywhere from less than 150 to 230. Then, depending on the image, dispersed dyes are printed to a special type of paper that transfers the image onto the fabric using a specific amount of temperature, pressure, and time. The reason that companies make sure of digital sublimation machines is that they are high in speed, but low in cost. These machines produce vivid, sharp, and accurate images for your shades.

The Benefits of Placement Marketing

The Benefits of Placement Marketing

Placement marketing is not a new thing. Product placement in books, movies and other venues started back in 1873, when the transport and shipping companies began to lobby to have their names placed in the novel, Around the World in Eighty Days by Jules Verne. You will find that since that time, product placement in novels has been a popular method for companies who are trying to develop their name or image.

Placement marketing is often created by having someone of some measure of fame hold the product being marketed in their hands in a photograph. If the item is too large to be held, then just having it in the same photo as the famous individual will often cause people to start to notice the product on the store shelves.
