FBX-100 Gen3 DTG Pretreatment for Brother GTX Printers

FIREBIRD Ink is a textile-printing supply brand of Eastern Tech Company in Orange, Connecticut. Its public launch was announced in 2013, following the team's work in DTG inks and pretreatment since 2008. The company focuses on practical print-shop problems, from color and wash performance to maintenance and production efficiency. Its approach combines formulation development with application testing so professional garment decorators can match consumables to their equipment and process.

FBX-100 Gen3 DTG Pretreatment for Brother GTX Printers: Product Details

FBX-100 Gen3 GTX Optimized Pretreatment is a ready-to-use formulation for Brother wet-on-dry DTG workflows, including the GTX and GTXpro application described by the supplier. It is an option for shops seeking a pretreatment matched to that printer family without adding a concentrate dilution step. Match the formula to the garment and print process before starting production.

This is a third-party FIREBIRD consumable. Printer brand and model names identify compatibility; the product is not manufactured or endorsed by the named printer company.

Features and Selection

• Ready-to-use liquid; no dilution required.
• Supplier identifies Brother DTG printers using wet-on-dry technology.
• Formulated to support vibrant prints with a soft garment feel and minimal staining.
• Published shelf life of 12 months.

Select the GTX Optimized version when your approved workflow calls for this Brother-oriented formula. A Universal or Epson Optimized product has a different formulation identity even if the containers look similar. Keep the exact product name on the job's test record and assess the pretreatment area, image and garment feel after the full finishing process.

Choose a package size that fits your expected consumption and handling equipment, rather than selecting on container price alone. Confirm the selected option's volume and product identity in the order details. Product photographs may show a representative container or a printer used to illustrate the application; equipment pictured is not included with a consumable purchase.

Formulation and Materials

Professional printing formulation; consult the exact product label and safety data sheet.

The full chemical formulation is not supplied in this listing. Match the product identifier on the container with the current safety data sheet when reviewing composition disclosures and handling information. Keep that information available to the operators who use the supply, and confirm the formulation identity when comparing a new purchase with the product already in your shop.

Handling, Storage and Maintenance

Before handling this professional printing supply, read the current product label and obtain the exact product's safety data sheet. Use its instructions for storage, ventilation, protective equipment, spill response and disposal; a general product description cannot establish those requirements. Keep the original identification and batch information with the container. If you dispense into another container, preserve the required identification and avoid confusing different maintenance fluids or formulations.

Maintain a written record of the product used, the machine or application involved and the date of the procedure. That record helps the next operator distinguish a tested setup from a new combination. Before changing a formulation or a maintenance routine, review the current equipment instructions and confirm the change with the appropriate technical support contact.

For help understanding chemical labels and safety data sheets, see OSHA's safety data sheet guidance. Use the specific product's sheet to determine its own requirements.
