Starting in fact from the selection of certified low environmental impact yarns and textiles (GOTS, GRS, FSC), NextPrinting has developed a customised fabric printing system capable of reproducing highly realistic and repeatable effects, not only visually, but also tactilely. By means of a surface treatment, for instance, NextPrinting is able to give the selected fabric or filament a leather-like feel, not just an appearance. This becomes a new, sustainable way of recreating the properties of leather on different fabric bases, also integrating the washability characteristics usually precluded to real leather and the possibility of applying an additional water repellent treatment.
Depending on the choice of the fabric to be printed on, it is in fact possible to provide technical performance and wearability usually unattainable by real leather and faux leather. For example, among the fabrics offered by NextPrinting is a solution with a high-performance weave, GRS-certified, anti-UV, anti-bacterial, anti-sweat, easy to clean and crease-resistant.
