Disperse and polyester printing are the two core processes of wide-format digital printing, for polyester/synthetic and home-textile blends respectively.
Disperse and polyester printing are the two core processes of J.LINK's wide-format line, together with wide-format digital printing forming three processes. Choosing right decides saturation, sun resistance and fastness.
Disperse printing uses disperse dyes for polyester and synthetic fabric. Dyes migrate into fibers under heat, giving vivid, wash- and sun-resistant color—first choice for curtains and synthetic wallcoverings, across all six standard widths.
Polyester printing broadly covers polyester fabrics; in home textiles it often means soft, skin-friendly printing of polyester blends, fit for bedding and cushions.
Wide-format digital printing is the capability of jetting on 200-320CM full width, carrying disperse or polyester inks, seamless. It is more a equipment capability combined with the former two.
| Process | Fabric | Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Disperse | Polyester/synthetic | Vivid, sun/wash resistant |
| Polyester | Polyester blends | Soft hand, fine color |
| Wide-format | Full-width | 200-320CM seamless |
Summary: disperse for polyester/synthetic, polyester for home-textile blends, wide-format for seamless full width; combine by fabric and width.
Disperse dyes target polyester/synthetic, vivid and sun-resistant; polyester printing means soft blends for home textiles.
Polyester and synthetic; heat-set, wash- and sun-resistant, first choice for curtains and synthetic wallcovering.
It is a full-width jetting capability carrying disperse or polyester inks—combined with the former two for 200-320CM seamless.
Color deviation, low fastness or wrong hand feel; free sampling first is advised.
