About this video:

What is Kornit and what solutions do they bring to the market?

Kornit started as an ink manufacturing company when it launched in 2002.
Now, Kornit develops ink, all liquids, software, and printing machines themselves. They are a solution provider. Kornit's specific solution is a one-step process. They can take almost any garment that absorbs water and print directly on to it by applying a fixation agent.
It takes a short amount of time for the product to be fulfilled from the moment it gets sold in a print shop. It gives you extreme versatility and flexibility.

What role does Kornit play in the future of ecommerce?

With ecommerce on the rise, the development of the fashion industry has shifted from pre-producing large amounts of garments. This is to minimize the number of unsold goods in retail shops.

Kornit allows customers to print what is needed on demand. You can offer your designs on a variety of products without needing to maintain inventory. With our technology, we make it possible to express yourself without any additional effort.
How have Kornit's machines and printing models evolved?

Kornit started with a classic four-color machine, just for white t-shirts. Since then, continuous evolution was industrially oriented.

We also went from a single pallet solution to machines with dual pallets and separate bridges that can print in white and color.

This created a better and more efficient production flow.

What does the fixation agent do and why do we need it?

We need to use a fixation agent because we apply a water-based ink drop directly on the garments.

Without the fixation agent the colors wouldn't stick to the garment.

We're still evolving it, and continuously developing our ink. The latest version of our fixation agent doesn't have this vinegar smell anymore, because we've changed a couple of ingredients.
How does the color profile of your print file affect the end result?

Every single color has a certain value, and we transfer this value into the color space of our printing machines.

Kornit machines range from four colors plus white to six colors plus white.

The more colors the machine has, the more you can reproduce.

In terms of color consistency, an adequate color profile gives you control over your reproduction.
Why is it important to order a color swatch before you create or print your designs?
The way colors are displayed on the screen and printed are like two different worlds. You can't directly compare one to the other.

RGB, or monitor colors, are light-emitting colors. The more energy I apply, the brighter the color is going to be. In printing, it's the opposite way. The more pigment or more color I add, the darker the color gets.

One easy way to overcome this is to assess the outcome of your design on the actual garment by using color swatches.

With color swatches, you know what the actual reproduction of the color is going look like on that particular garment. It also makes a huge difference if you're printing on a natural-colored or a white t-shirt from thin or thick fabric, since that changes the appearance of colors as well.
