Printing prepared to become part of the component.
Customisation of insoles, uppers and other footwear production components, with assessment of the material and assembly stage.
- COMPONENTS
- Insoles, uppers and other items subject to assessment.
- Branding, identification and graphic elements.
- CONTEXT
- Production for businesses and the footwear industry.
01 · Services
The component defines the preparation.
In footwear production, print may be applied to components with different materials, shapes and finishes. Graphic position and the production stage at which the item is printed should be considered from the start.
We work from the client’s item and specification. A sample allows us to assess the usable area, positioning, surface compatibility and handling during production.
HOW IT WORKS
From sample to production run.
Screen printing transfers ink through a prepared screen. Component format influences support, positioning and repeatability.
- 01
Receive the sample
We review material, format, finish, usable area and the intended print stage.
- 02
Define the marking
We confirm dimensions, position, orientation and number of colours.
- 03
Technical preparation
The screen and support method are prepared for the supplied item.
- 04
Production
Print is repeated according to the approved reference and the organisation defined for the run.

FREQUENT QUESTIONS
Before printing a component.
Which components can be customised?
SERIFIL works with insoles, uppers and other components. Feasibility depends on material, geometry and available area.
Is a sample required?
It is recommended, especially for a new reference. A sample allows us to assess item support, surface and positioning.
Can you work with several references?
Yes, provided each reference is identified with its artwork, dimensions, quantity and print position.
