Mulder Porcelain Pvt. Ltd. does ceramic transfers which is printing on porcelain or other hard-surfaced pottery like bone china, stoneware etc. They follow a systematic process of transferring a design onto a hard surface.
The first step of the process involves artists who design the patterns to be transferred either manually or digitally. Once the design is approved by the client, the next step is to separate colors in the design, giving the positive images for printing.Each color used in the design has a separate positive image.
The positives are given to the pre-press section and exposed to a photographic film or screen to which it is transferred. It is exposed to yellow light for about 4-5 minutes. Next, this is exposed to light. Each color has a separate screen. After the positive has been transferred on to the screen it is washed to obtain the negative. The negative is then developed to obtain the sticker. The sticker is given a protective coating. It can be transferred onto the required surface by wetting it. To ensure that it does not peel off, the surface is baked.
The colors used are available in powdered form and is mixed with a medium before using it for ceramic transfer.
Tile printing is also carried out in similar manner.
They do heat transfer prints for textile and garment industry also.
