YOGYAKARTA 'Did you know the ecoprint technique on clothes? If not, you are not alone.
Ecoprint is one of the clothing printing techniques. Ecoprint stands for the word eco or ecosystem and print which means print.
This printing technique has uniqueness in its final result because clothing is printed using various shapes of plants so that it produces unique motifs.
In addition, ecoprint techniques can also produce products that are personal, limited, intimate and exclusive rather than using digital print whose results tend to be the same visually.
For those of you who want to get to know the ecoprint technique in deeper clothing, VOI has summarized a number of information for you. Let's look at the following reviews.
Ecoprint techniques are printed techniques with natural cloth colorings that are quite simple but can produce unique and authentic motifs.
The principle of manufacture is, through direct contact between leaves, flowers, stems, or other parts of the plant that contain color pigment with certain cloth media.
Ecoprint is called a environmentally friendly cloth printing technique because it does not use chemicals that can pollute the environment.
The color used to decorate plain cloth can be made of leaves, fruit, stems, or flowers. These natural ingredients are boiled first before being used as a color for cloth.
