Sublimation Printing Process
SUBLIMATION PRINTING EXPLAINED - Sublimation is the method of applying an image to specially coated materials or substrates, using three main ingredients: sublimation ink, heat and pressure. The dye is a unique mix of chemicals that are designed to give off brilliant colours. Before the dye is heated the colours are very dull. Under intense heat and pressure the dye will reveal brilliant stunning colours. It will also permanently fix the ink which will not fade, crack, peel or discolour. The Sublimation process dyes the fabric with colour, which helps maintain a fabrics ability to breathe and let moisture through. Because our process dyes the threads of the fabric, there is no peeling, flaking or noticeable colour change. For high quality printing on breathable fabric, sublimation can't be beat.
