Default Natura Digital Apparel

O.K. guys & gals, has anyone ever heard of Natura Digital Apparel System or had any experience with one? I searched the forums and did not see any discussions.

Googled and found this link: www.Naturaprint.com

Look forward to your input!

Thanks,
Jim

Sawgrass Technology is a pretty big player. I would guess their stuff is good. In fact, if this works on dark garments without any type of pretreatment, I would be interested in it. I will check with them next week at the ISS Show.

*edit* I read more info on the site. CMYK probably means no dark printing.

btw, I think I read somewhere that the main development guy on the Brother DTG left to go to Sawgrass Technology.

Under "The Technology", "Technology Comparison", "Finished Garment" tab, it doesn't list that Natura can be transfered on dark garment.

Yep, you're correct.

Interesting concept, but the ink costs are really high.

Thanks!

I think this is more heat transfer than DTG, since you're basically printing on a piece of transfer paper and heat press it onto a shirt.

Thanks all, I guess I mis-categorized this post. Really a heat transfer process with a twist. I too will investigate at ISS. System does have some limitations, but some great attributes as well. I found a review on google dated 2002.. wonder why this process is not more popular?

It does look interesting, but no good for me without a dark t-shirt option

From what I know, the Natura project was dropped a while ago. Sawgrass now has the Direct Advantage dtg printer.

How about hemp fabrics as another alternative? I had researched that for my product as a possible fabric but it didn't have all the characteristics I needed. Maybe there's some hemp fabrics that would work? Just a thought.
