Matte Silicone Ink is a specialized silicone-based printing ink designed to give screen-printed designs a matte, non-shiny surface. This type of ink is widely used in the textile printing industry, especially for high-end and fashionable garments where a soft touch and premium look are desired.

1. Matte Finish: Gives a smooth, flat appearance without gloss or shine. Perfect for subtle and elegant print styles.

2. Soft Hand Feel: Despite the matte look, the print remains soft and flexible on fabric.

3. Stretchability: Ideal for activewear and stretch fabrics like polyester, cotton-spandex blends, etc.

4. Durability: Resistant to cracking, peeling, and fading even after multiple washes.

5. Eco-Friendly: Many matte silicone inks are PVC-free and phthalate-free, making them safe and environmentally friendly.

6. Good Adhesion: Bonds well with various fabrics, including synthetic and blended textiles.

Applications:

1. Fashion & Premium Apparel: Matte silicone adds a touch of luxury to casual wear, streetwear, and designer clothing.

2. Sportswear & Activewear: Thanks to its flexibility and breathability.
