Kornit DTG brings white to coloured fabrics

Digital direct-to-garment systems manufacturer Kornit has released its Presto MAX system, which it claims is the only single-step solution – and the most sustainable solution available – for direct-to-fabric printing to bring white printing on coloured fabrics.

The new system, part of Kornit’s MAX technology, which was launched in April, will make its debut at the Kornit Fashion Week Los Angeles + Industry 4.0 Event on 2-5 November. Kornit is distributed locally by Kissel + Wolf.

According to Kornit, the Presto MAX’s ability to offer white printing on coloured fabrics "delivers the highest quality and softest feel with brilliant whites and brighter neon colours, enhancing decoration capabilities for dark coloured fabrics more broadly."

The new Kornit Presto MAX, Kornit says, will provide the cornerstone of a smart, efficient, sustainable EcoFactory, and integrates more parts of the process, from design to finished product, to decrease carbon footprint, use minimum manpower, and generate less waste.

The Kornit Presto MAX system is ready to incorporate future iterations and evolutions of XDi, and was devised for compatibility with the KornitX global fulfillment ecosystem.

“Presto MAX will change the textile industry forever, transforming digital into the catalyst for modernising the business, breaking the barriers between imagination and physical applications, connecting consumers and fulfillers on a global scale, and truly capitalising on digital’s promise for delivering both sustainability and profitability, free of waste,” said Ronen Samuel, CEO, Kornit Digital.
