Sublimation Printing
Sublimation printing is used for all-over graphics on polyester and polyester-blend performance fabrics, making it a strong fit for team uniforms, rash guards and compression apparel.
How This Service Supports Buyers
Best Uses
Sublimation is best for designs with gradients, multiple colours, sponsor graphics or full-panel artwork where the print needs to move with the fabric.
Artwork and Sampling
Buyers provide print files, colour references and placement notes. We prepare proofs and sample the garment so colour, scale and panel alignment can be checked before bulk production.
Fabric Requirements
The process performs best on high-polyester fabrics. Cotton-rich garments usually require screen printing, embroidery or heat transfer instead.
Sublimation Printing FAQs
Can sublimation handle unlimited colours?
Yes, sublimation is suitable for multi-colour and all-over artwork, provided the selected fabric is compatible with the process.
Is sublimation suitable for cotton?
No. Sublimation needs polyester content to bond correctly, so cotton products are usually decorated with screen print, heat transfer or embroidery.
Can player names and numbers be sublimated?
Yes. Names, numbers and sponsor marks can be included in the artwork before printing, which is common for team uniform sets.
