WHAT IS DYE SUBLIMATION?
The Dye Sublimation process uses special heat-sensitive dyes to print graphics and text onto special transfer paper.
Sublimation ink is unique in its ability to convert from a solid to a gas without going through a liquid form. The conversion is initiated by heat and controlled with pressure and time. The high temperature - from a heat transfer press - opens the pores of the polymer and allows the gas to enter. When the temperature drops, the pores close and the gas reverts to a solid state. The print then becomes part of the polymer

How do I care for the garment?
The garment should be washed separately in cold water, with no bleach or fabric softener, and dried separately. When these garments are washed or dried with other products, zippers, Velcro, or even heavier fabric, can cause the garment to pull or pic. If possible hang dry or dry separately on low to medium heat.
I need specific colours to match something I already have, can you do this for me?
Yes can print to specific PMS, but please note there could be slight differences.
What if I’m not a designer?
That’s fine you can send through logos with a brief descrition and we can put some concepts together for you. A fee may apply.
How long does it take to receive the “Concepts” ? Please allow 24 to 48 hours
Will I see a sample? Yes you will see digital images of a physical sample prior to production commencing
