About Printing Craftsmanship
What is embossing, and how is it different from debossing?
Embossing is a technique that creates a raised impression on a material, while debossing presses the design inward, creating a recessed effect. Both techniques add texture and sophistication to printed materials.
What factors should I consider when choosing a printing technique?
Material: Some methods work better on specific surfaces (e.g., screen printing for fabric, offset for paper).
Budget: Offset is cost-effective for large runs, while digital printing is better for short runs.
Aesthetic & Finish: If you need metallic effects, choose hot stamping; for texture, consider embossing.
Durability: UV printing and screen printing offer long-lasting prints resistant to fading.
