why when i watch this i get the impression that they are doing somethingillegal as innocent as it seems?

@santonegro619 lol. IDK but it sure seems it's just YOU. Haha

man, this so 'craft store' quality. You would be better off buying adhesive paper and printing it off your home computer. Get back to the dark ages and stay there.

@scottiblasto,

yeh, that would be really useful on a water bottle label, with condensation.

Secondly, my count is one pull per second, and 2 colours, printed onto a vinyl adhesive substrate. This makes for a pretty durable and cost effective label.

Your "home Computer" could not even start to compare to what these guys are producing on any level, and not an abundance of digital solvent printers in the phillipines. Certainly not "craft store" quality, ridiculous comments.

@MrPrintsolutions thanks for explainin'. haha

@scottiblasto printing it off from a computer doesnt give you the quality that the product needs. Our client stick these to water bottles. Computer printers might give us the quality that vinyl paints can, but it's waaay too expensive. And yes it is a "craft store" because pretty much everything is done manually.

@RaiseYourFistinc and fyi, even though they can be screen printed, most ber bottles have a label that is printed on a flexographic press and then applied to the bottle either with heat transfer head on the production line, or a pressure sensitive label again applied in production. Cans are usually printed roll to roll by a process called gravure (most often), the rest of the canning process I am not familiar with.

@RaiseYourFistinc are you an idiot, I know that screen printing is going to give you better quality. Way to go capain obvious, what I was meaning is the way that these guys are doing it they would be better off. The quality looks like crap, and they look like crafters. I am a fucking printer by trade.

@scottiblasto, screen printing will produce much higher quality results than any normal home printer - even street signs are screen printed, because it is durable and you can use a HUGE variety of inks print metallic - opaque - pearlescent - UV reactive - Glow in the Dark - clear coat & more none of which can be done with a normal home pc printer unless you Buy a nice oversize pigment / solvent printer for like 10k-15k. EVEN BEER BOTTLES & CANS ARE SCREEN PRINTED! --- pure ignorance

Something tells me that that water is NOT purified.

@MrPrintsolutions you can buy special inks for your computer for pretty much any application. I have printed fade resistant warning labels for industrial use off my computer when my basement company first started off. I now use a manual ironhorse 4 station, four colour screen printing press, but computer printer with specialty inks would definately be a better option for these guys. Also, look what digital printing is currently doing to the flexographic market. Its eating up all the short runs!
