Matsui's selection of 301 Base's allow the screen-printer to print on a variety of substrates without compromising printing green. This group of bases allow for printing on 100% cotton, 50/50, and polyester garments simply by adding the desired pigment/color of the 301 Neo series or 301 RC series.  The choice of these products  were specifically designed for today's manual and high speed automatic screen printing presses. The Eco-friendly 301 Bases  offer advantages over the traditional plastisol inks and are superior to plastisol ink systems currently being used in high volume textile shops. Our choice of 301 Bases and 301 series of pigment are free of most environmentally damaging chemicals such as PVC, phthalate, heavy metals, azo compounds, nonylphenol and formaldehyde.
