Dye sublimation
What is Sublimation Printing?
Sublimation printing is the process of putting your designs onto a special transfer paper which is then heat-pressed over the top of the garment and the design is transferred onto the product.
Why choose Sublimation Printing?
Sublimation printing only works on 100% white polyester garments making it the perfect printing technique for personalised t-shirts, running tops, custom vests, and any other polyester sports clothing that requires a soft print finish. It is also a popular option for custom printed boxers and personalised socks.
With no minimum order quantity and prices from around £6.95 per shirt, you can create your fashion brand and start making a profit from your personalised clothing design.
Special Considerations for Dye Sublimation:
- Potential white crease marks in the print: Due to the printing process for dye sublimation, it is normal that the print leaves white marks and imperfections where there are creases. These white marks are commonly found around the armpit area. The garment must be made of white polyester for standard dye sublimation.
- Please be aware that a true black can not be achieved with dye sublimation as the t shirts can only absorb a certain amount of ink. Therefore, black can often not be as saturated as some other colours and may appear off-black.
- Dye sublimation is primarily suited to all over randomly placed designs, not position specific designs but please contact us if you have any doubts but please ensure you understand the potential print creases and our terms and conditions related to this found here, under the Dye Sublimation sub heading
Please note:
- Printed garments are more sensitive and need extra attention when it comes to washing. To preserve the print and the garment, it is recommended that you wash it inside out on a cold wash.
- Do not use a tumble-dryer and do not iron over the print.
