Gift shops play an important role in a museum’s revenue. BIDBI understands this and, while so many retailers adapt to reopening after lockdown, has added to its printing capabilities to offer products that benefit from all over printing.
Full bleed, also known as edge to edge and all over printing, is a printing process which covers an entire roll of cotton with a continuous design. When the cotton material passes through the printer any design can be continuously printed across the entire roll of fabric, producing an uninterrupted all over print.
This method enables BIDBI to print intricate and complex designs to a high standard and using multiple colours, producing a colour photographic outcome. Once printed, the roll of fabric is cut and stitched into the required product.
Full bleed printing is perfect for display paintings, photographs, and other artworks on bags, zip pouches, and home textiles.
