ColDesi recently recorded a webinar focused on the advantages of UV and UV/DTF printing. It highlights how businesses can transition from traditional methods to more profitable production solutions.
The webinar walks through current limitations in traditional decoration workflows. It explains how today’s demand for full-color, high-resolution printing is driving businesses to invest in new technologies. Learn how UV and UV/DTF open new possibilities for customization. These technologies help reduce production time. They also offer a greater return on investment through faster turnaround. Plus, they enable broader product capabilities.
Explore equipment options suited for different business sizes. Learn about real-world applications that create new revenue opportunities—from promotional items to retail signage to durable branded goods. This is a must-watch for businesses considering equipment upgrades, expanding into hard goods, or seeking more control over their production processes.
From Legacy to Leading-Edge
Learn more about the limitations of traditional methods still used in production environments. Techniques like vinyl cutting limit both color options and design complexity. This makes them less effective for detailed or multicolor work.
Sublimation works well in some cases, but it’s restricted to polyester-based and light-colored materials. That significantly reduces its versatility.
Pad printing requires manual setup. It often leads to inconsistent results—especially with small batches or intricate designs.
Screen printing is widely adopted but has drawbacks. It comes with high setup costs, long preparation times, and is inefficient for multi-color or short-run jobs.
As demand grows for fast, full-color, high-resolution output on a variety of surfaces, these older technologies can’t keep up. This webinar shows how UV and UV/DTF printing fill that gap. They offer a modern, efficient alternative for decorators and manufacturers today.
What UV and UV/DTF Printing Brings to the Table
UV and UV/DTF printing offer practical solutions for businesses seeking quality, speed, and material versatility. UV printers deliver full-color, high-resolution images that cure instantly under ultraviolet light. This eliminates the need for drying time and significantly increases durability and efficiency. UV/DTF technology expands on this by allowing designs to be printed and then transferred onto curved surfaces. This is useful for customizing items like tumblers, bottles, and complex hard goods.
The webinar highlighted several key benefits of these technologies. UV and UV/DTF printers support a wide range of materials including wood, acrylic, glass, metal, and plastics. Their fast production speed—made possible through instant curing—helps reduce turnaround time. With minimal setup requirements and consistent output across various applications, these technologies offer a strong return on investment for both new and established businesses.
