We have been working with our supplier on the development of our prints for a very long time and have carried out all sorts of print, wear and tear and usage tests. We’d like to think reflective patterns where the designer’s unique style comes through are our specialty. They are a departure from the simple pattern world of sportswear and protective clothing. Nowadays we are able to take into account the requirements of the reflective print and its behaviour on the finished printed product straight from the drawing board.
The durability of the prints is top-notch and there is no need to replace the product due to print wear or breakage. The adhesive surface of reflective prints is designed to adhere to workwear materials such as synthetic fibres and cotton. Wool fibres have a much flakier and rougher surface, so the adhesive surface of the print sticks to them particularly well. Workwear is often washed at very high temperatures and subject to heavy wear, so our reflective prints can withstand normal washing. Remember to wash our product according to its washing instructions. For more information, please refer to our care guide.
In addition to reflective prints, we also carry prints in different colours. The prints all come from the same supplier. The coloured ones, such as gold, are lighter and thinner, making them particularly suitable for t-shirts and socks, for example.
We do all our own printing in our own facilities in Lauttasaari, Helsinki. We use two air and electric hot presses. When we print our products ourselves, we can better control our stock size and there are hardly any surplus products, as we print all products directly to the customer's order.
