What is sublimation printing

Sublimation printing, in plain terms.

Sublimation printing is digital textile printing where the dye sublimates from solid to gas under heat and bonds permanently with polyester fibre. The colour becomes part of the synthetic fabric, with no surface coating and no hand-feel change. This is why sublimation prints look photo-quality, never crack or peel, and survive repeated washing without fading. We run sublimation on the Mimaki TS100 with our own in-house roll fusing line that handles both continuous fabric and cut-panel work up to 70 inches wide.

Fabrics We Print

Why Customers Stay

What our regular sublimation customers tell us.

Most of our sublimation orders today come from sportswear suppliers and event-merchandise vendors who first ordered with us years ago. Here is what they say we get right.

🎯
01

Same Mimaki TS100, same paper, same ink chemistry, same operators. Re-orders from last season match the original print.

02

Roll fusing handles continuous AND panel work

Before You Send

File and fabric preparation.

Sublimation print quality depends on three things — your design file, your fabric polyester content, and your colour mode. Get these right and the print follows.

📐

Send file at 150 dpi minimum

Minimum resolution is 150 dpi at actual print size. We accept AI, PDF, PSD, TIFF, PNG, JPG, CDR. Higher resolution gives sharper print detail.

🎨

CMYK colour mode preferred

RGB files will be converted to CMYK at our end (slight colour shift may occur). For exact Pantone match, send the Pantone reference number.

⚠️

Polyester content matters

Sublimation works fully only on fabrics with at least 80 percent polyester. Cotton-rich blends will produce muted, washed-out colour.

🚫

No softener or silicone coating

Surface coatings act as a barrier and prevent dye penetration into the fibre. Send fabric without softener, silicone, or oil-based finish.

Not sure if your fabric or file is print-ready? Send your design and fabric spec on WhatsApp — we'll review and advise before you dispatch bulk.

FAQs

Sublimation printing — common questions.

Sublimation works on polyester, lycra, and synthetic blends with at least 80 percent polyester content. The dye sublimates from solid to gas under heat and bonds permanently with the polyester fibre. Sublimation does not work on cotton, silk, or other natural fibres — for those, use reactive printing.

Up to 70 inches / approximately 1800 mm — across our Mimaki TS100 sublimation line and our in-house roll fusing, which handles both continuous prints and panel or cut-panel work.

We deliver same-day strike-off samples on most sublimation designs. Sportswear and jersey orders typically run on customer timelines — we coordinate sample approval and bulk schedule with your team during your free Pre-Print Consultation.

Roll fusing is the heat-transfer step that bonds the printed sublimation paper to the polyester fabric, transferring the dye into the fibre. Yes — we have an in-house roll fusing line that handles both continuous fabric and pre-cut panel or cut-piece work, up to 70 inches wide.

Sublimation works fully only on fabrics with at least 80 percent polyester. Cotton-rich blends (60-40, 50-50) will accept some colour but produce muted, washed-out results compared to 100% polyester. We confirm fabric suitability in your free Pre-Print Consultation before any sampling.

Yes. We are a pure job-work printer — you supply the polyester fabric (continuous or cut panels) and the design, we handle sublimation printing and roll fusing. We do not sell fabric. Customer handles compacting and final finishing at their own end.
