Sublimation Printing in San Diego, CA

What is Sublimation Printing?

Sublimation printing involves transferring a design into a material or fabric using ink and heat. It’s revolutionized the apparel industry, since it’s a technique that allows whole garment prints from seam-to-seam with no limitations. Heat brings the ink and the fabric together as one, so the ink actually becomes a part of the garment.

The Benefits of Sublimation Printing

Since designs are printed into fabric as opposed to printed onto the surface (as seen with screen printing), sublimation printing results in a permanent, full-color image that stands the test of time. The image won’t crack, peel or wash from the fabric. If you’re dealing with a design with lots of detail, sublimation printing is your best bet. While it’s an ideal technique for small batches, we can accommodate orders in any volume.
