Full-colour printing with vibrant tones and a soft-touch finish.

Textile digital transfer prints the design in high resolution onto special transfer paper, which is then applied to the garment using heat and pressure. It allows full-colour reproduction of photographs, gradients, and complex logos, making it an ideal option for small to medium runs of T-shirts, sweatshirts, and bags.

Advantages

• Allows full-colour printing with vibrant, high-quality tones
• Ideal for complex, multicolour designs with fine detail
• Flexible process, perfect for short runs
• Soft feel on the surface

Handicaps

• Less durable than direct techniques such as screen printing
• Transfer sheet may wear with heavy washing or friction
• Not recommended for surfaces subjected to continuous wear

Vibrant solid colours with excellent value for money

Textile screen printing uses inks specially formulated for fabrics, applied through a mesh on a frame, allowing vibrant colours on T-shirts, sweatshirts, or tote bags. This technique works particularly well for simple logos and medium to large quantities. It also allows printing in exact Pantone colours, ensuring perfect alignment with your brand’s identity

Advantages

• Ability to print exact Pantone® colours
• Good durability if instructions are followed
• Cost-effective for medium and large runs
• Ideal for customising promotional clothing

Handicaps

• Limited to simple designs with few colours
• Not suitable for printing photographs or gradients
• Less suitable for technical fabrics if breathability is required

Embroidery with Pantone-matched threads for a professional look.

Advantages

• High-quality appearance
• Greater accuracy with corporate Pantone® colors
• Very durable, resistant to wear and washing
• Consistent brand image across all garments

Handicaps

• Slight variation possible compared to printed Pantone® colors
• Not suitable for very small or highly detailed logos
