Decorated Ceramic Mock-ups with Fotocal Waterslide Decal Paper

摘要

Creating mock-up ceramic designs has never been easier or more cost effective than with Fotocal waterslide transfer paper. All that is needed is Fotocal, a computer-generated design and laser printer or even a photocopier to help proof designs on product before investing in screen or litho printing. Fotocal is used by leading designers internationally to create 'mock-ups' of designs before and during product launch. According to Colette Bishop, Senior Designer at Johnson Brothers, Fotocal is an invaluable tool for design as it is extremely versatile and saves time in the development of ceramic designs. It allows designs to be approved on a 3D shape rather that in the form of flat artwork. In the past, designs were hand painted onto ware or paper printed designs were glued onto the ceramic items. This product has shortened the design launch stage as Fotocal-decorated samples have been demonstrated by Johnson Brothers to gain internal and market approval. Bishop added that Fotocal decorated ranges have actually sold new patterns, been exhibited at international exhibitions, and used for product photography during the launch process.
