Sublimation Print
Description
Dye sublimation print is used for branding products that have a special coating on them, or fabrics suitable for the sublimation process. A transfer is produced by printing sublimation ink onto transfer paper and then heat pressing it onto the product.
Advantages
- Sublimation ink is a dye so there is no ink build-up. The finished print is embedded in the product.
- Ideal for producing vivid full colour images as well as closely matched spot colour branding.
- Variable data including individual names is available on select products.
- Edge-to-edge branding can be achieved on some products.
Limitations
- Can only be used on suitable products with white surfaces.
- Some colours cannot be reproduced including white, metallic, and neon/fluorescent colours.
- Fine detail/text may experience minor colour bleed across adjacent design elements.
