Promoting total solution proposals that accompany customers at each stage with “thermal transfer foil”!

KOTOBUKI SEIHAN PRINTING CO.,LTD

Thermal transfer is a technique in which, by applying heat and pressure to a heat-resistant film with a pattern printed on it, the pattern (ink layer) is instantly applied to the base material (molded product). Normally, in the case of direct printing, the more multicolored the pattern, the greater the increase in base material loss due to printing errors and printing work time, resulting in poor yields and requiring more time for delivery. In the case of hydraulic transfer, not only is a large amount of waste fluid generated after the transfer process, but the process also takes time, resulting in longer time for delivery.
