Welcome to the colourful universe of reactive printing!
Have you ever wondered how these incredibly vibrant colours can end up on your favourite garment and be environmentally friendly at the same time? At Lebenskleidung, we take you on an adventurous journey behind the scenes of reactive printing - a process where art, science and sustainability come together in a spectacular way.
Imagine painting with watercolours and each colour magically bonds with the paper, creating vibrant works of art that last forever. This is how reactive printing works with our Reggiani 180 machine - except that our "paper" is the finest materials and our "watercolours" are the environmentally friendly, water-based EFI Reggiani AQUA Premium Reactive Inks.
These special inks are the superheroes of textile printing. They form a chemical bond with the fibres, making the colours not only stunningly bright but also super durable. In contrast to faster pigment printing, where the colour tends to chill on the surface, reactive printing ensures that your fabrics will survive the next washing adventure without any problems.
But wait, it gets even better! Because our entire printing process is GOTS-certified. It's like having a green thumb for fashion - we make sure that everything we do respects the earth, from the inks to the final print.
Now you might be thinking: "That all sounds great, but what does it mean for me?" Quite simply, when you choose fabrics from Lebenskleidung, you are not only bringing a piece of vibrant colour into your home, but also supporting production that works hand in hand with Mother Nature.
Let's take a look at the Reggiani 180 machine, the real magic behind our vibrant fabrics. This state-of-the-art digital printing machine is not only the heart of our production, but also a marvel of technology that allows us to realise stunning designs with a precision and speed that was previously unimaginable. The Reggiani 180 is specifically designed for reactive printing and works seamlessly with our AQUA Premium Reactive Inks to transfer every shade and colour perfectly onto the fabric. With their help, we can meet the high standards of quality and sustainability that we set for ourselves and our products at Lebenskleidung.
Are you ready to take your designs to the next level and make the world a little bit better in the process? Jump on the colourful reactive printing bandwagon and let's revolutionise the textile industry together - one colourful, sustainable piece of fabric at a time.
