Epricon Advantage

Zydex’s strength lies in its expertise in nano-technology and polymer chemistry gained over continuous R&D efforts since its inception. Epricon is a next generation printing solution designed by Zydex to address sustainability issues in conventional reactive printing. Using a unique polymer design, Epricon allows the user to print with depth, solidity, feel and fastness like of reactive printing. Epricon does not require washing and can replace most reactive designs, thus saving the user from washing costs.

The major features of the eco-friendly printing solution are explained below:

Eco-friendly sustainable process: Epricon printing solution is a direct print and dry technique based on pigment printing process, eliminates washing and steaming processes, with no effluents as associated with reactive and disperse printing. The water consumption reduced by 75% and energy by 55% as compared to conventional reactive printing. The package is GOTS and ZHDC approved.

  • Higher productivity: Epricon based on next generation binder system is a print, dry and cure process, with thin layer of deposition allows printing at a higher speed resulting in around 45% increase in productivity when compared to reactive.
  • Reduced rejection and shorter lead time: Epricon printed fabrics are not prone to colour variation post curing unlike in reactive printing where shade and toner changes are usually observed post printing processes (washing and drying), leading to higher fabric wastages. This eventually results in reduced rejections (fabric wastage ~ 3%), faster deliveries and higher customer satisfaction.
  • Sharper digital-like printing: The package is designed to run with higher mesh rotary screens up to 195 and allows production of finer designs and sharper prints similar to digital prints but at much lower cost.
  • Higher brilliancy: Epricon with the combination of nano-technology, surface active agents and cross-linking polymers, produces brilliant colours and clean prints when compared to conventional prints.

Future targets and growth plans

Epricon is a technological revolution in the field of textile printing leading to sustainable production. The demand for sustainably and responsibly produced garments will lead to immense opportunity for Epricon. Sustainable technologies are growing across the complete value chain and currently come at additional cost which shall be more cost effective with increase in volumes. Zydex is partnering with like-minded brands and textile players to implement this innovative and sustainable printing solution and gradually shift a range of existing reactive prints to Epricon.

It is collaborating with leading textile players in the industry, offering complete technical guidance for its transition from reactive prints to Epricon. The future lies with sustainable printing solution with least consumption of resources – be it digital or conventional. By 2025, Zydex aims to replace 30% of reactive screen printing market with its innovative Epricon solution. This will save water to the tune of 20 billion litres in the next five years besides reducing carbon footprint. The company is aiming to grow by three-fold in next five years with penetration of newer technologies across business segments.

Although the work is unified by the frame of a single evening stroll, it can also be seen as a combination of many individual framed moments. If we remove the purpose of the journey—to find a pencil—the essay falls neatly into a set of discrete scenes with related reveries: a daydreaming lady witnessed through a window, a dwarfish woman trying on shoes, an imagined gathering of royalty on the other side of a palace wall, and eventually the arguing of a married couple in the shop where Woolf finally gets her pencil.

We have professional writers experienced in all academic disciplines who can complete practically any assignment for you, providing the highest quality of research, grammar, and formatting.

    Freunde klassischer Casinospiele wie Roulette, Blackjack und Poker kommen im Ares Casino aber ebenfalls nicht zu kurz. Wer die komfortable Suchfunktion des Casinos bemüht, wird hier jedenfalls schnell fündig. Des Weiteren kann dir das Ares Casino auch ein kleines Live Casino anbieten. Es ist gar nicht kompliziert, den Ares Casino Bonus zu erhalten. Zunächst aber muss die Registrierung im Online Casino erfolgen, die komplett kostenlos erfolgt. Da es kein Ares Casino Bonus ohne Einzahlung ist, bedarf es auch einer Einzahlung. Es ist ein Ares Casino Bonus, der auf die ersten 7 Einzahlungen aufgeteilt wird. Bei jeder Einzahlung muss ein Casino Bonus aktiviert werden. Eine kleine Anleitung haben hier auch noch erstellt: Ja, auch über den mobile Weg können Ein- und Auszahlungen getätigt werden. Der Ablauf ist dabei derselbe wie auf der stationären PC Seite. Es stehen viele Ein- und Auszahlungsmöglichkeiten zur Auswahl, darunter MasterCard oder Visa, e-Walltes wie Neteller oder Skrill, sowie Prepaidkarten wie die paysafecard. Jedoch fallen Gebühren von 2.5% des Betrages bei Zahlungen mit Kreditkarte und pauschal 2.50€ für die anderen Zahlungsarten an. Dies ist durchaus ein Manko, dass Ares Casino noch nachbessern kann.

  253. First, find a reasonable and well debatable thesis. In order to make a good argumentative essay you should prepare well. Research a couple of topics for thesis; think about your audience and their reaction. A good argumentative essay must have at least two conflicting points; in order to achieve that, you have to research the topic well and prepare for it. The arguments should be logical, convincing and well laid out in your argumentative essay in order to make it a good one. Picture yourself discussing your essay with someone. Imagine that this person disagrees with everything that you say. Every time you make a claim, like that it’s important to be polite in an email, your imaginary person shakes their head and tells you no. How would you try to convince them? What examples would you use? Make sure that for each opinion you put forward; you have provided an answer to someone who would disagree with you.
