Pad PrintingĀ is aĀ product decorating process that transfers single or multi-color 2-dimensional images onto nearly any 3-dimensional object. TheĀ pad printing processĀ utilizes a siliconeĀ ink cupĀ to transfer ink onto aĀ printing plate. When the ink dries, the resulting decoration is exceptionally durable. Pad Printing provides precise decoration that is durable and highly repeatable for mass production.
