Emblems made with 3D screen printing are having a real boom in the footwear and fashion industry.
The three-dimensional effect appeals to designers, manufacturers and customers because of its ability to make decorative elements more impactful and “alive.”

THE EFFECTS OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL EMBLEMS

The creation of a 3D emblem is done with a mix of different techniques.
Screen printed 3D lettering, inserts and logos can be characterized by two effects:

  • 3D EFFECT: It is the “classic” three-dimensional effect that animates and gives depth to the image.

  • CHANGING EFFECT: Also called Flip or Hologram, it is thelenticular effect that allows several different subjects to be displayed alternately.

It is the latter effect, the most successful innovation in the footwear and fashion industry.

3D SCREEN PRINTING: THE APPLICATIONS

Increasingly, designers are adding 3D effect inserts on shoes, bags, belts or wallets.

The versatility of 3D screen printing allows for application to multiple accessories, with the ability to create that family feeling sought by many brands for their collections.

The inserts can be applied with adhesive or sewn onto fabric depending on the type of material.
From the custom 3D effect printed heel to the limited edition sneaker, fashion is discovering a new dimension!

SCREEN PRINTING FOR THE FOOTWEAR AND FASHION INDUSTRY

The aesthetic quality and wear resistance of screen printing products make them ideal for the footwear and fashion accessory industry.

To meet the needs of manufacturers, SAC Serigrafia has developed a protective printing solution against the action of aggressive agents such as mastic.

3D screen printing also complies with industry-required regulations in that it involves the use of phthalate-free polyurethane.

THE 3D, ACCORDING TO SAC SERIGRAPHY

SAC Serigrafia began producing the first emblems with 3D effect back in 2007 and has since continued to focus on research and development of new techniques and effects.

Today, the entire cycle of making 3D emblems is done in-house.
This ensures perfect control over production, as well as maximum versatility and customization.

Research, as Lean teaches us, continues and will continue.
To ensure increasingly excellent, innovative and high-performance screen printing.
