Imprint Methods

 
4-Color Process
4-color process printing uses ultraviolet light to instantly cure CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) inks, which are applied in tiny dots to create a wide spectrum of colors on various hard and soft surfaces. This combination produces crisp, vibrant prints with high detail and color consistency, making it suitable for complex, full-color designs.
Pad Printing / Screen Printing
Pad printing excels at printing on three-dimensional, irregularly shaped objects with intricate designs, while screen printing is more suited for flat surfaces and large designs. Max of 2 spot colors allowed, artwork permitting. HIRSCH does not guarantee the life of a screen/pad print on writing instruments & keytags.
Deboss
Depressing a logo into a leather product, or material that mimics leather. Advantages include a subtle, executive look, as well as resistance to weathering. Color Fill is not available.
Laser Engraving
Process in which a logo is etched into a product, removing the top layer of material from the product surface. Advantages include resistance to weathering, high image detail, and variable data capability. Oxidation is available on products where indicated in catalog at no additional charge. Personalization is available for a surcharge (please contact factory for details).
Embroidery
A traditional method of using thread to create logos on fabric material. Logos are digitized, or programmed for an embroidery machine to read, and then stitched directly onto the product.
ColorMAX
Another type of the Four Color Process Printing technique that is exclusive to select HIRSCH products and brands. This proprietary method allows for near edge-to-edge printing, as well as near full wrapping on select drinkware.
