鸿盛数码纺织涂料印花


简介


传统纺织印花行业长期以来具有资源密集型和环境影响大的特点,正面临前所未有的脱碳和数字化压力。传统的活性染料印花通常每公斤织物消耗100-150升水,并产生含有重金属、残余染料和助剂的废水。随着欧盟绿色协议、中国“双碳”目标以及企业可持续发展要求的演进,传统印花工艺因高耗能、高污染、高排放等问题面临严峻挑战。


涂料数码印花作为一种技术可行且具备商业规模的替代方案脱颖而出,它省去了高耗水的洗涤和蒸化环节,降低了能耗并增强了生产灵活性。


然而,过去涂料印花在色牢度、手感和工艺可靠性方面的局限性限制了其市场渗透率,特别是在高端纺织领域。


郑州鸿盛数码成立于2001年,自2003年起被认定为国家高新技术企业。公司通过在材料科学、配方化学和工艺工程方面的持续投入,系统性地解决了这些技术障碍。

1.2 性能特点


捷特丝® 的技术评估显示,其具备六大竞争优势,共同支撑了工业级规模的应用部署:

  • 广泛的基材通用性 其基于涂料的化学体系展现出卓越的兼容性,适用于纤维素纤维(棉、麻)、蛋白质纤维(丝、毛)、合成纤维(涤纶、锦纶/聚酰胺)以及包括机织、针织和非织造结构在内的混纺织物。这种"通用性"极大地简化了生产企业的技术储备要求,为多品种、小批量的柔性生产模式奠定了技术基础。
  • 工艺流程精简 生产周期的压缩是涂料数码印花在数字化时代的重要竞争力。传统活性印花需要 7-9个个独立阶段:前处理(上浆)、印花、烘干、蒸化、水洗、皂洗以及最终烘干,流程复杂且耗时冗长。而基于 捷特丝® 涂料数码印花工艺简化为(预处理)-印花-固色(或转印)三大核心环节,生产周期缩短70%以上,并实现了与数码制造执行系统(MES)相兼容的线性生产流,在数字化工厂中,每一道工序都可以被精确监控和优化,数据流的贯通性得到显著增强。
  • 资源利用高效 量化的环境表现显示,与传统活性工艺相比,该技术可减少 ≥95% 的耗水量、≥50% 的能耗以及 ≥60% 的化学品使用。由于消除了废水的产生,企业无需承担废水处理基础设施的建设与运营负担,这对于水资源短缺地区或排放法规严苛地区的工厂尤为重要。
  • 经济效益优化 成本结构的优势体现在多个维度:入门级系统配置所需的资本投资减少;公用事业消耗(水、电、蒸汽)降低;由于工艺变量减少,质量控制方案得以简化;同时免除了与废水管理相关的环境合规支出。数码生产计划系统通过精确的成本分摊和持续优化,进一步放大了这些优势。
  • 复现性与质量稳定性 直接数码工作流消除了模拟工艺(如制版、调浆、对色)中固有的变量来源。该工艺降低了对环境条件(温度、湿度、水质)的敏感度,确保了批次间以及从样品到大货的颜色一致性,这对于数据驱动的质量管理和数字孪生的实现至关重要。一等品率的提升直接增强了经济回报。
  • 卓越的耐用性能 先进的粘合剂化学体系和优化的颜料分散技术,使其日晒牢度达到 6–7 级(ISO 105-B02),并具有优异的耐氯漂性能。这满足了户外纺织品、家居装饰和技术应用的要求,而此前这些领域通常被认为是活性染料系统的专属领地。这一性能优势打破了过去认为"涂料印花牢度不佳"的成见,使涂料数码印花从低端市场走向高端领域,为其在数字化转型中承担更重要角色扫清了障碍。

Introduction


The textile printing industry, historically characterised by resource-intensive wet processing and substantial environmental influence, faces unprecedented pressure to decarbonise and digitise. Conventional reactive dye printing typically consumes 100–150 litres of water per kilogram of printed fabric and generates effluent containing heavy metals, residual dyes and auxiliary chemicals [1]. Regulatory frameworks including the EU Green Deal, China's ‘dual carbon’ targets and evolving corporate sustainability mandates have rendered traditional production modalities economically untenable for an increasing proportion of market participants [2]. Pigment-based digital inkjet printing has emerged as a technically viable and commercially scalable alternative, offering elimination of water-intensive washing and steaming stages, reduced energy consumption and enhanced production flexibility [3]. Hongsam’s High-tech Enterprise Certificate Hongsam’s High-tech Enterprise Certificate.


However, historical limitations in colour fastness, hand feel and process reliability have constrained market penetration, particularly in premium textile segments.


Zhengzhou Hongsam Digital Science and Technology Co, Ltd – founded in 2001 and designated a National High-tech Enterprise since 2003 – has systematically addressed these technical barriers through sustained investment in materials science, formulation chemistry and process engineering. This paper analyses Hongsam's technological architecture, commercial deployment patterns and service infrastructure to elucidate the mechanisms underlying its competitive positioning in international markets.

1. Core technological innovation: The Jettextile® textile pigment ink platform


1.1 Formulation architecture and environmental compliance

The Jettextile® textile pigment ink series represents Hongsam's principal technological achievement, developed through proprietary nanoscale aqueous processing techniques. The formulation achieves complete aqueous carrier systems without organic solvent content, thereby minimising volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions throughout the product lifecycle. Independent certification includes the OEKO-TEX Eco Passport, REACH compliance and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) accreditation, satisfying the most stringent requirements of international brand owners and regulatory authorities.

1.2 Performance characteristics


Technical evaluation of the Jettextile® platform reveals six interconnected competitive advantages that collectively enable industrial-scale deployment:


Substrate versatility. The pigment-based chemistry exhibits compatibility with cellulosic fibres (cotton, linen), protein fibres (silk, wool), synthetic fibres (polyester, polyamide), and blended constructions across woven, knitted and nonwoven architectures. This universality reduces technical complexity for multi-product manufacturing environments and supports mass-customisation business models.


Process streamlining. Production cycle compression represents a critical operational benefit. Conventional reactive printing requires 7–9 discrete stages: pretreatment (sizing), printing, drying, steaming, washing, soaping and final drying. The Jettextile®-enabled process reduces this to three core operations: optional pretreatment, printing and fixation, achieving cycle time reductions exceeding 70% and enabling linear production flow compatible with digital manufacturing execution systems.


Resource efficiency. Quantified environmental performance demonstrates water consumption reduction of ≥95%, energy reduction of ≥50%, and chemical usage reduction of ≥60% relative to conventional reactive processes. The elimination of aqueous effluent generation removes the capital and operating burden of wastewater treatment infrastructure, particularly significant for facilities in water-stressed regions or jurisdictions with stringent discharge regulations.


Economic optimisation. Cost structure advantages manifest across multiple dimensions: reduced capital investment requirements for entry-level system configurations; diminished utility consumption (water, electricity, steam); simplified quality control protocols due to reduced process variability; and elimination of environmental compliance expenditures associated with effluent management. Digital production planning systems further amplify these advantages through precise cost attribution and continuous optimisation.


Reproducibility and quality consistency. The direct digital workflow eliminates variability sources inherent in analogue processes (screen engraving, paste preparation, colour matching). Reduced sensitivity to environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, water quality) ensures batch-to-batch and sample-to-production colour consistency essential for data-driven quality management and digital twin implementation. First-grade yield improvements directly enhance economic returns.


Durability performance. Advanced binder chemistry and optimised pigment dispersion achieve light fastness ratings of 6–7 (ISO 105-B02) and excellent chlorine bleach resistance, satisfying requirements for outdoor textiles, home furnishings and technical applications previously considered exclusive to reactive dye systems.


2. Integrated product portfolio and process solutions


Hongsam's ‘HONGSAM+’ operational philosophy encompasses a comprehensive product ecosystem extending beyond core ink formulations to encompass pretreatment agents, post-treatment chemistries and application-specific process protocols. Table 1 presents the systematic product architecture organised by printing methodology.

Dilution ratios indicate pretreatment agent-to-water proportions.


The product architecture demonstrates systematic coverage of principal industrial printing modalities.


DTF (direct-to-fabric) roll-to-roll (piece goods fabric) printing configurations address high-volume fabric production, with graduated pretreatment concentration ranges (PP-01/PP-03 at standard dilution versus PP-17 at extended dilution up to 1:100) enabling optimisation for diverse substrate characteristics and performance requirements. Post-treatment agent selection (PA-03/PA-04 for standard applications; PA-05 at elevated dilution for specialised finishes) provides corresponding flexibility in final product attributes.


DTG (direct-to-garment) printing employs simplified pretreatment protocols (PP-05 as ready-to-use solution; PP-08 as directly applicable paste) reflecting the distinct handling characteristics of pre-cut garment components versus continuous fabric rolls.


DTF (direct-to-film) heat transfer modality eliminates pretreatment and post-treatment stages entirely, representing the most streamlined process architecture within the portfolio. The optional powder-free formulation addresses evolving regulatory and operational preferences regarding particulate handling.


Since 2016, Hongsam has progressively developed integrated processing solutions that unify ink, pretreatment, and post-treatment chemistries within coherent technical systems. The Rapid Colour Technology (RCT) protocol, subsequently extended to include in-line sizing processes and the JETALL® water-based latex ink platform, exemplifies this systems-level approach.


2.1 JETALL® water-based latex ink platform


The JETALL® system, recognised in the 16th China Dyeing and Printing Association Energy-Saving and Emission-Reduction Advanced Technology Recommendation Catalogue (2023), enables aqueous inkjet printing on non-absorbent and hydrophobic substrates—including synthetic leather, technical textiles and coated materials – previously requiring solvent-based or UV-curable systems. This capability expansion addresses a significant market gap in sustainable digital printing for high-performance and technical textile applications.
