Sublimation
Sublimation Printing Services in the UK
Sublimation printing is one of the fastest-growing methods for creating custom designs in the UK. Using heat and pressure, this process transfers dye directly into polyester fabrics or specially coated items, producing vibrant prints that will never crack, peel, or fade. Unlike other methods, sublimation makes the design part of the material itself, giving a smooth, durable, and professional finish.
One of the key reasons sublimation printing is so popular is the quality of the results. The technique allows for bright, full-color artwork with detailed images, gradients, and all-over designs. Whether you’re looking for custom T-shirts, sportswear, mugs, cushions, or promotional merchandise, sublimation ensures long-lasting colors and a soft feel with no added layers.
