Sublimation Printing for Clothing
Sublimation printing is a modern and efficient method used for transferring designs onto fabric. It works by turning dye into gas through heat and pressure, which bonds permanently to polyester or polyester-coated materials. This technique is popular in the clothing industry due to its ability to produce vibrant, high-quality, and durable prints.
Key Features:
- Vivid Colors: The process embeds ink directly into the fabric, creating bright and long-lasting colors.
- Soft Finish: Unlike surface printing, the design becomes part of the material, leaving no additional texture.
- Durability: Prints are resistant to fading, cracking, or peeling, even after multiple washes.
- Best for Polyester: Works effectively on 100% polyester or polyester blends but isn’t suitable for cotton fabrics.
- All-over Printing: Ideal for full-coverage designs, such as sportswear, jerseys, and custom T-shirts.
This method is widely used in activewear, uniforms, and fashion apparel, offering limitless possibilities for customization.
