Curious about silicone pad printing? This video explains everything you need to know about this printing technique. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, this video will provide valuable insights into pad printing.

You may have seen videos of ceramic bowls being printed with a tool resembling a soft, squeezy pad. This process is known as pad printing, a technique used to print on materials like plastic, glass, metal, and ceramics. The flexibility of the silicone pad allows it to adapt to complex shapes. Ink is held in a recessed plate, where the pad presses down to pick up the ink and then transfers it onto the item. With silicone pads available in different sizes and levels of firmness, pad printing can be applied to a wide variety of surfaces, including flat, spherical, concave, and convex shapes.
