SUBLIMATION

Sublimated printing, also known as dye-sublimation printing, is a versatile and high-quality printing method commonly used for creating custom designs on a variety of items, such as clothing, banners, flags, promotional products, and more.

Here’s a detailed description of sublimated printing, its uses, and requirements:

1. Sublimated Printing Process:

Printing Method: Sublimation is a digital printing process that uses special ink, heat, and pressure to transfer full-color, high-resolution designs onto a substrate.
Special Ink: Dye-sublimation ink is used, which is a specialized ink that turns into a gas when heated.
Heat and Pressure: The printed design is placed on the desired substrate (usually made of polyester or materials with a high polyester content), and the combination is subjected to high heat and pressure.
Sublimation: The ink turns into a gas and penetrates the substrate’s fibers, becoming a permanent part of the material.

2. Uses of Sublimated Printing:

Apparel: Sublimated printing is widely used for creating custom sports jerseys, uniforms, and activewear, as it provides vibrant, full-color designs that won’t crack, peel, or fade over time.
Promotional Products: It’s used to print logos, graphics, and artwork on promotional items like mugs, phone cases, mousepads, and more.
Flags and Banners: Sublimation is a popular choice for printing flags, banners, and display graphics due to its ability to produce vivid, durable, and long-lasting images.
Interior Décor: It’s used for customizing items like cushions, curtains, and wall art.

3. Requirements for Sublimated Printing:

Polyester or Polyester-Coated Substrates: Sublimated printing works best on materials that are primarily made of polyester or have a high polyester content. This is because the sublimation process relies on the ink bonding with polyester fibers.
Digital Design: You need a digital design or artwork in a compatible format (usually in vector or high-resolution raster format) to be printed on the substrate.
Sublimation Printer: A specialized sublimation printer is required to apply the dye-sublimation ink onto transfer paper accurately.
Heat Press: A heat press machine is used to apply heat and pressure to transfer the ink from the paper to the substrate.
Proper Environment: Sublimation printing should be done in a well-ventilated area due to the release of gases during the process.
Quality Control: Careful color management and quality control are essential to ensure the final product matches the intended design. Sublimated printing is preferred for its ability to produce high-quality, durable, and vibrant prints that are ideal for a wide range of applications. It’s especially popular in the sports, fashion, and promotional industries due to its versatility and long-lasting results.

EMBROIDERY

Embroidery is a high quality, long-lasting and professional decoration method to communicate your brand identity with your audiences. Embroidered logos allow you to display your name or business name in a high-quality fashion, providing an excellent first impression. This technique is used to decorate uniforms, jackets, headwear or any other clothing materials with needle and thread, and it will last the life of the garment.

We pride ourselves at our versatility in working with our customers to work out what they need and how best to achieve that result.

Digitizing:

Our designers will take your design and use specialist software to transform it into a stunning stitch file appropriate for the garments you have selected. This creates a blueprint for our machines to follow with pinpoint accuracy. We stitch a sample for you and once approved, this design can be used time and time again for your repeat orders with no additional design costs.

Embroidery can be done on the following:

Polo shirts, Corporate shirts and trousers.
Hospitality and medical uniforms / aprons.
Sports and school jerseys and shorts.
Hi-Vis work wear, soft shell jackets, hoodies, shorts and trousers.
Travel bags, sports and school bags, laptop and conference bags.
Headwear like caps, beanies and bucket hats.
Towels, bathrobes, blankets, and children’s clothing.

Requirements for Embroidery

We require a high-resolution image in PDF/PNG/JPEG format to convert the artwork into machine readable embroidery format (Digitizing).
There is a one-time ONLY set up fee for digitization.
We provide a sample of the embroidery for approval by the customer before
proceeding with the order.
Please note that different fabrics and the quality of the particular fabric will affect the final appearance of the stitched out logo. We will follow the colour specs on the logo file that has been provided to us unless advised by customer to change it permanently on our records.
We do not charge extra for change of colours to be made to the original logo file that has been provided, to suit the background colour of the garment, as we believe in providing that option as a service to our customers. However, it is the customer’s responsibility to request change of colours on different garments as needed on each order as we cannot assume that.

Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing

Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing is a modern and versatile printing technique used to apply full-color, high-resolution designs directly onto fabric surfaces, primarily on garments like T-shirts, hoodies, and other apparel.

Here’s a detailed description of DTG printing, its uses, and the requirements associated with it:

1. DTG Printing Process:

Printing Method: DTG printing is a digital printing process that works similarly to an inkjet printer. Specialized water-based ink is directly sprayed onto the fabric.
Ink Absorption: The ink is absorbed by the fabric’s fibers, creating a durable and long-lasting design that becomes an integral part of the garment.
Color Detail: DTG printing can produce highly detailed, full-color, and intricate designs with shading and gradients.

2. Uses of DTG Printing:

Custom Apparel: DTG printing is commonly used to create custom T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, and other clothing items with personalized or branded designs.
Promotional Products: It’s used for customizing a variety of promotional items like tote bags, caps, and other fabric-based products.
Small Batch and One-off Production: DTG is an excellent choice for producing small quantities or even single items of custom apparel, making it cost-effective for short runs.
Print on Demand: Many print-on-demand services use DTG printing to produce custom merchandise based on customer orders.

3. Requirements for DTG Printing:

Prepared Digital Design: You need a digital design or artwork in a compatible format (usually in high-resolution raster format) that can be directly loaded into the DTG printer for printing.

DTG printing is particularly favored for its ability to produce high-quality, full-color prints with fine details, making it a popular choice for personalized clothing and merchandise. It offers flexibility for on-demand and small-batch production, making it suitable for businesses and individuals looking to create custom apparel without the need for large quantities or costly setup fees.

Direct to Film (DTF) printing

Direct to Film (DTF) printing is a relatively new and innovative digital printing method used to transfer full-color designs or graphics onto a variety of substrates, including fabrics and hard surfaces.

Here’s a detailed description of DTF printing, its uses, and the requirements associated with it:

1. DTF Printing Process:

Printing Method: DTF printing is a digital process that uses a specialized DTF printer and ink to create full-color designs on a transfer film.
Transfer Film: A transparent or semi-transparent film serves as the transfer medium. The design is printed in reverse onto this film.
Adhesive Powder: An adhesive powder is then applied to the film, which adheres to the ink, making it ready for transfer.
Heat and Pressure Transfer: The transfer film with the adhesive-covered design is placed on the substrate, which can be a garment, fabric, or hard surface. Heat and pressure are applied using a heat press to transfer the design from the film to the substrate.
Curing: Once transferred, the design is cured with additional heat to set the ink permanently on the substrate.

2. Uses of DTF Printing:

Apparel: DTF printing is commonly used to produce custom T-shirts, hoodies, and other clothing items with full-color, detailed designs. It works well on both light and dark fabrics.
Hard Surfaces: DTF printing can be applied to a variety of hard surfaces, including ceramic, wood, metal, and more, making it suitable for creating custom signs, promotional products, and personalized decor items.
Short Runs and Prototyping: DTF is cost-effective for short production runs and prototyping, making it a popular choice for businesses and individuals looking to create custom products in smaller quantities.

3. Requirements for DTF Printing:

Digital Design: A high-resolution digital design is needed for DTF printing, typically in a raster format (such as JPEG or PNG) that can be printed onto the transfer film.

DTF printing is gaining popularity due to its ability to produce vibrant, high-resolution, and full-color designs on both fabrics and hard surfaces. It’s an ideal choice for businesses and individuals looking for cost-effective customization options, especially for small to medium-sized production runs and custom one-off items.
