Rubber Squeegees in Bangladesh – Types, Uses & Best Quality for Textile Printing

In Bangladesh, the textile and garment industry continues to grow as one of the largest contributors to national export earnings. To maintain high production quality in textile printing, Rubber Squeegees play a critical role—especially in screen printing machines used for fabric printing. Without a proper squeegee, even the best printing screen, ink, or machine cannot produce accurate colors, smooth coverage, or sharp outlines.

At Ahmed Engineering, we import and supply industrial-grade rubber squeegees in Bangladesh for all major flatbed and rotary textile printing machines. This article explains what rubber squeegees are, why they matter, and how to choose the right type for your factory.
