What is Ceramic Decorating?

For centuries, mankind has used ceramic inks to decorate pottery and glassware because of its brilliance and ability to resist fading over time. In recent years, technology has improved upon those centuries-old formulas and created inks with more vibrance that will look as good on day 1 as they do on year 100.

Ceramic decorating, or screen printing, is a decorating method where ceramic inks are applied directly to the surface of the glass bottle and then fired in a lehr at temperatures up to 1200°F. The result is a permanently fused label that will last the lifespan of the glass. Never worry about damaged labels again! Our screen printed labels will never soak, scuff, or fade over time.
