Reactive vs Pigment Fabric Manufacturer | Which One Should You Choose?
The final look of a garment often comes down to one crucial step: printing. At Hemploom India, we specialize in two powerful methods—Reactive (Procion) screen printing and Pigment digital printing. Both offer unique benefits, but choosing the right one depends on your collection, brand positioning, and buyer expectations.
Reactive Fabric Manufacturer – Richness That Lasts
Reactive dyes chemically bond with fabric fibers, producing colors that are vibrant, wash-fast, and long-lasting. This method is ideal for intricate designs, bold shades, and garments requiring durability.
Best suited for: Shirts, dresses, home textiles.
Advantage: Deep penetration into fibers ensures colors don’t fade easily.
Pigment Fabric Manufacturer – Sustainable Precision
Pigment digital printing, by contrast, sits on the fabric surface. It consumes less water, making it more eco-friendly. Though the hand feel can be slightly stiffer, pigments allow for sharp detailing, faster turnaround, and sustainable sampling.
Best suited for: Lightweight fashion apparel, small runs, customized pieces.
Advantage: Eco-conscious method with minimal resource use.
Head-to-Head Comparison
- Durability: Reactive wins for longevity
- Eco-footprint: Pigment has the advantage
- Color vibrancy: Reactive produces richer tones
- Detailing: Pigment offers sharper results
The right printing method is not about one being better—it’s about matching process to product vision.
