MagnaColours launches ‘Killer’ new products
M
agnaColours has developed a brand new under base ink that will provide plastisol printers with an economical solution to significantly improve the handle and softness of their prints, while also achieving considerable cost savings for printers.
MagnaPrint Killer Base is set to enable plastisol screen printers take their first steps into the growing popularity of water-based printing.
Killer Base is designed to be used as a water-based replacement for the first layer of plastisol ink or as an alternative option for printers using discharge under bases.
With high opacity and excellent fibre
matting down properties, the new Killer product provides a smooth, silk-like under base for further layers of plastisol ink to be printed over, and also prevents fribulation and pin-holing of fabrics.

Grahame Gardner sets the trend with revamped workwear line

orkwear provider Grahame Gardner has relaunched an innovative range of garments which bring state-of- the art fabrics together with the latest printing
techniques. The Advance range, which was first unveiled in 2016 and is still a UK first when it comes to producing dye sublimated tunics, is now new and improved after undergoing a refresh. The range utilises cutting-edge dye sublimation technology allowing customers to choose any colour, image or pattern as part of their uniform designs. Customers can even use their company logos to create bespoke panels and trims, allowing organisations to present a strong corporate image across their entire business, ensuring staff have workwear that truly aligns with their corporate identity.
The Leicester-based firm originally launched
its Advance range in response to increasing demand from businesses for more customisable and contemporary uniforms that provide increased comfort and resilience. It targets the dental, nursing, healthcare, veterinary and spa and beauty markets and uses a technical fabric called Aura which provides the wearer with moisture control as well as durability.
The 100% polyester, 160gsm Aura fabric, can be hand washed or in a washing machine at 40⁰C, and is easy to maintain due to its fast drying nature and inherent wrinkle and shrink resistance. Sizes are from 6 – 26 (XS – XXL) and available on minimum order quantities of 10 garments, with delivery in approximately six to seven weeks.
