Dye Sublimation Process

The art of permanent color infusion into fabric

Design Preparation

  • Digital artwork creation and optimization
  • Color separation and calibration
  • Mirror imaging for transfer process

Printing Process

  • Special sublimation inks application
  • High-resolution transfer paper printing
  • Quality check of printed transfer

Heat Transfer Application

  • Precise temperature control (380-420°F)
  • Timed pressure application (35-55 seconds)
  • Cooling and quality inspection

Dye Sublimation vs Screen Printing

Dye Sublimation

  • Permanent color infusion into fabric
  • No texture or feel on fabric surface
  • Unlimited colors and gradients
  • Perfect for detailed designs
  • Maximum fabric breathability

Screen Printing

  • Surface level ink application
  • Raised ink texture on fabric
  • Limited colors per design
  • Better for simple designs
  • May affect fabric breathability
