This indirect printing process based on the gravure printing principle involves blank silicon stamps (pads) being soaked with the colour image of the motif. The flexible attribute of the silicon stamp also enables the imprinting of curved surfaces in high quality. Padprinting is the most important method for imprinting plastic promotional products. It is optimal for printing one-coloured logos. For multicoloured prints, the motifs have to be checked. Patterned motifs and gradients are not possible using the pad printing method.

The digital print transfer method offers the possibility of transferring photorealistic motifs with colour gradients and shadings onto textile accessories and advertising flags. The desired motif is initially printed onto a film using a digital printer. The film allows a simple positioning of the motive and is transferred by applying heat and pressure to the promotional product. This process can be implemented for light coloured accessories and advertising flags.
