Sublimation

What is Sublimation?

 

Sublimation is a printing transfer process which uses heat sensitive sublimation inks to permanently dye synthetic fabrics.

The process, which is called "Dye Sublimation", involves the use of a special heat sensitive dye to print your design onto paper. The printed paper is then placed with the synthetic fabric into a heat press.The sublimation cycle transfers the design from the paper to the fabric. Sublimation is always done on synthetic materials and at high temperatures

As the sublimation process actually dyes the garment, the colour is "in" the fabric and not on top, as is the case with traditional screen printing methods. This gives a much better feel to the garment.

Sublimation printing also enables the production of "all over prints" which allows your design to extend across the whole garment.Colours are bright and and do not fade over time.

Sports that routinely use sublimated clothing include AFL, Basketball, Cycling, Cricket, Netball, Hockey, Baseball, Soccer etc. Sublimation is also used for Corporate/Work shirts, After sports shirts and specific events shirts.
