Ceramic and organic decals for glass, ceramic, and porcelain.

GRAPHIC SCREEN PRINTING SOLUTIONS

In our specialised screen-printing facility, we produce high-quality decals using graphic screen-printing techniques. We offer both ceramic and organic decals for the high-quality finishing of your products. Our decals for glass, porcelain, and ceramics provide a wide range of design options and add creative highlights to your products.

Whether elegant porcelain tableware, packaging glass, or glass for the beverage industry - our decals impress with brilliant colours and high-resolution details.

CERAMIC DECALS

for temperature-resistant products

Ceramic decals fired at temperatures between 560 °C and 1250 °C create extremely durable decorations on glass, ceramics, porcelain, and metal. They are long-lasting and resistant to abrasion, chemicals and high temperatures. Ceramic decals maintain their brilliance over long periods and are therefore ideally suited for products that are frequently used or washed, such as tableware.

Precious metals such as gold and platinum, as well as metallic, can be easily integrated into the decoration as premium visual highlights.

ORGANIC DECALS

for products with limited temperature resistance

Organic decals are ideal for decorating products that have limited resistance to high temperatures. With the use of appropriate additives, these decorations are dishwasher-safe after thermal curing at temperatures between 160 °C and 200 °C. Organic decals are free from heavy metals and based on resins coloured with organic pigments As a result, the colour spectrum is significantly broader than with ceramic colours, allowing for the realisation of almost any design idea.

Our organic decals can be applied to a wide range of materials, including toughened or coated glass, borosilicate glass, as well as internally pressurised packaging glass with large capacity.

DECORATIONS

FOR GLASS

Schmidbauer transfer & technology specialises in the production of decals for a wide range of glassware.

From hollowware and flacons to packaging glass and borosilicate glass, almost all shapes and types of glass can be decorated with your individual designs.

Our high-quality glass decals ensure durable, scratch-resistant, and colour-intensive results.

DECORATIONS

FOR CERAMICS

In the field of ceramic screen printing, we develop long-lasting decals that provide your ceramic products with a high-quality finish.

Die Einsatzmöglichkeiten sind so vielfältig wie die Keramik selbst: von dekorativen Flaschen für Getränkeverpackungen, die im Drittbrand bei 850°C veredelt werden, bis hin zum Unterglasurbrand bei über 1.000°C für Geschirr.

Jede Anwendung stellt ihre eigenen Anforderungen und genau dafür entwickeln wir die passenden Abziehbilder – detailreich, farbintensiv und haltbar.

DECORATIONS

FOR PORCELAIN

In addition to decals for glass and ceramics, we offer high-quality decals for a refined finishing of porcelain products.

Whether tableware, vases, or decorative objects — our porcelain decals allow for detailed motifs, lush solid colours, fine colour gradients, or creative combinations of both. Thanks to the flexibility of the decals, even complex geometries can be decorated perfectly.

Firing at approximately 1,200 °C creates a brilliant appearance while simultaneously ensuring maximum durability. Aesthetic appeal and durability are combined to produce compelling results.

TRANSFER METHODS
FOR DECALS

Water-slide decals

Traditionally, ceramic decals are applied as water-slide decals. This application method is particularly suitable for smaller quantities and complex product geometries, such as concave, convex, or conical shapes, as well as relief surfaces.

Heat-release decals

For large quantities and geometries with flat decoration surfaces, heat-release decals are preferred. In this process, the designs are released from the carrier material through heat and automatically transferred onto the product. Subsequent drying, as required for water-slide decals, is not necessary. The decals can be fired immediately. Production can take place inline, eliminating additional handling costs.

Alle Druckprodukte können je nach Anforderungen als Bogenware, Einzelnutzen oder für die automatische Übertragung auf Rolle produziert werden.
