4. Dear Mr Dakmak
We are extremely excited that you have given us they opportunity to play a role in your
upcoming sneaker line, by allowing us to be the supplier of your apparel focus. It is a crucial
time, where a brands key ideals are exciting & broader scopes are correctly implemented in the

that we can work together in making a breakthrough product for Modak. The kettle of
awesomeness behind Modak's future success "Live Life" where we can see what kind of product
you like to be focused in. Here is a little background of Enigma Republic, our Abstract Art focus

the industry lacks. Our standard practice is to always be competitive in the current market. Also
strive to extend a gratitude of excellent customer service. Additionally maintaining superb quality
throughout our products.
ER(EnigmaRepublic) was founded in 2010, by a student who loves the idea & art of graphic
Tshirt, "Its a show of character, personality on a cotton canvas" he believed. After owning at least
a hundred tees, came to the reality some of these items didn't stand for the buck we are
spending. Then after some research came a perspective; how to strive in this market. Where the
roads are limited specially in the apparel industry, it wasn't the designers/artist fault because their
feature were blocked by cost, wasn't they wholesaler at fault because their pricing and choices
were extremely limited and so on and so forth. So Shakil Ahmed founder of Enigma Republic
came up with an idea which came to fruition in 2011. ER will work together with our customers
and distribute straight from the manufacturer.
7. COTTON OF INDIA, CURRENT
PRODUCTION
GM cotton acreage in India continues to grow at a rapid
rate, increasing from 50,000 hectares in 2002 to 8.4 million
hectares in 2009. The total cotton area in India was 9.6
million hectares (the largest in the world or, about 35% of
world cotton area), so GM cotton was grown on 87% of the
cotton area in 2009. This makes India the country with the
largest area of GM cotton in the world, surpassing China
(3.7 million hectares in 2009).

10. BACKGROUND INTEXTILE PRINTING
SCREEN PRINTING, SOMETIMES REFERRED TO IN POPULAR CULTURE AS SILK SCREENING, IS A POPULAR METHOD OF APPLYING IMAGES TO
SUBSTRATES (MATERIALS THAT ARE PRINTED ON). THE MOST WELL-KNOWN USE OF THIS PROCESS IS THE PRODUCTION OF IMAGES ON T-SHIRTS. IT'S A
RELATIVELY SIMPLE TECHNIQUE AND CAN BE PERFORMED AT HOME. THE BASIC PROCESS IS TO TAKE MESH (TYPICALLY WIRE) THAT IS STRETCHED
OVER A FRAME AND CREATE A STENCIL ON IT. THE STENCILED AREA REMAINS OPEN MESH, WHILE THE NON-STENCILED AREA IS FILLED OR OVERLAID
WITH A NON-POROUS MATERIAL. THE MESH IS LAID OVER THE SUBSTRATE AND FILLED WITH INK. A SQUEEGEE IS PULLED ACROSS THE MESH TO
FORCE THE INK THROUGH THE OPEN AREA OF THE MESH ONTO THE SUBSTRATE,CREATING THE IMAGE. THIS PROCESS IS UNIVERSAL TO ALL TYPES OF
SCREEN PRINTING. EVEN ROTARY SCREEN PRINTING USES THIS PROCESS, THOUGH THE MESH IS FIXED TO A CYLINDER AND THE SQUEEGEE RESIDES
INSIDE THE CYLINDER. THE PRIMARY DIFFERENCES IN SCREEN PRINTING ARE FOUND IN THE TYPES OF INK USED AND THE EFFECTS THEY RENDER.
• WOODBLOCK PRINTING : WOODBLOCK FABRIC PRINTING ISTHE EARLIEST FORM OFTEXTILE PRINTING. EASILYTHE SLOWEST METHOD,THE ARTIST DESIGNS A SIMPLE SHAPE
ON A WOOD BLOCK,THEN POUNDSTHE BACK OFTHE BLOCK WITH A MALLETTO CREATE AN IMPRESSION ONTHE FABRIC.
• ROLLER PRINTING : ROLLER PRINTING WAS INVENTED IN SCOTLAND IN 1783. FABRIC IS FED INTOTHE MACHINE,WHERE ENGRAVED CYLINDERS PASS OVER IT AND ARE
CONTINUOUSLY INKED.
• SCREEN PRINTING : TODAY, THE MOST COMMONLY USED FABRIC PRINTINGTECHNIQUE IS SCREEN PRINTING. USING A BLADE, INK INTHE FORM OF PASTE IS SQUEEZED
THROUGH SMALL OPENINGS ON A SCREEN.
• STENCILING : FABRIC CAN BE PRINTED WITH STENCILS;THE ARTIST CREATES A DESIGNTHAT IS CUT FROM HEAVY PAPER ORVERYTHIN METAL,AND INK IS APPLIEDTHROUGH
THE CUT-OUT OPENINGS.
• BLEACHING :AFTER FABRIC IS DYED, BLEACH CAN BE APPLIEDTO CREATE A PRINT DESIGN.
• PRINTS USING WAX :A PRINT CAN BE APPLIEDTO FABRIC USING WAX.AFTERTHE FABRIC IS DYED,THE WAX IS REMOVED, LEAVING A LIGHTER DESIGN.
11. SCREEN PRINTING
Screen printing, sometimes referred to in popular culture as silk screening, is a popular method of applying images to substrates (materials that
are printed on). The most well-known use of this process is the production of images on T-shirts. It's a relatively simple technique and can be
performed at home. The basic process is to take mesh (typically wire) that is stretched over a frame and create a stencil on it. The stenciled area
remains open mesh, while the non-stenciled area is filled or overlaid with a non-porous material. The mesh is laid over the substrate and filled with ink.
A squeegee is pulled across the mesh to force the ink through the open area of the mesh onto the substrate,creating the image. This process is universal
to all types of screen printing. Even rotary screen printing uses this process, though the mesh is fixed to a cylinder and the squeegee resides inside the
cylinder. The primary differences in screen printing are found in the types of ink used and the effects they render.
Plastisol: One of the most common inks used in screen printing, plastisol is a suspension of PVC particles in what is referred to as a plasticizer--a
chemical additive that increases flexibility. This is used in the production of garments, and though it gives good image clarity, it has a very plastic feel
and appearance.
Discharge Inks: Discharge inks work by affecting the existing dyes in a garment, usually to lighten them.
Flocking: Flocking is a process in which glue is applied to create the image, then a foil is applied to create a shiny appearance to the design.
Water-based Ink: Water-based inks e more penetration of fabric than plastisol-based processes and are employed when a softer result is sought.
Other Applications : Although textile applications are very common, screen printing can also be employed on circuit boards, wood, glass and even
metal
