Flock printing, also known as flocking, involves applying short fibers of materials such as rayon, cotton, wool, or synthetics onto an adhesive-coated surface. These fibers create a textured finish resembling velvet or suede.

Flock printing is commonly used in packaging, invitations, greeting cards, and business cards, to enhance the aesthetic and tactile feel.

To achieve the best results with flock printing, consider the following guidelines:

• Flocking is suitable for creating lines at least one millimetre thick and is not recommended for small letters.
• Avoid intricate, fine details or serif fonts, as fibre shedding may occur.
• Use heavier weight papers to prevent the paper from curling.
• Flocking achieves optimal results with solid colours and does not support colour gradients.
• Flocking is most effective on matte surfaces; avoid glossy or oil-coated surfaces.
• Flocking delivers visually appealing effects and a pleasing tactile experience.
• Flocking enhances grip and is scratch resistant.
• Ensure moisture-proof packaging to maintain proper humidity for flocking
