MIMAKI TRAPIS means ‘one type of ink for tultiple types of textiles’

TRAPIS, a next-generation digital transfer sublimation printing system from MIMAKI, makes textile production more environmentally friendly by reducing up to 90 percent of wastewater, compared to conventional methods. This system does not require wastewater treatment facilities and can be located in an office or extended studio location. One type of ink can be used on multiple types of textiles. Simple textile printing system that requires only printing and transferring, so it can be easily operated by anyone without the need for specialized skills or knowledge as with conventional textile printing system.

Installable in small space, and textile printing business can be conducted at the forefront of fabric supply distribution (store, design offices, etc.) The process generates almost zero wastewater. And even including wastewater generated in the transfer paper manufacturing process, wastewater is cut by approx. 90 percent compared to conventional digital dyeing systems. Printing on multi-variety textile fabrics with a single type of ink, TRAPIS eliminates the need for complicated maintenance of fabric conveyor belt, as is the case with conventional digital textile printing.
