DTG printing offers full colour photo quality images on your clothing
We offer Direct to garment (DTG) printing and are capable of producing high quality and complex full colour prints onto dark or light coloured t-shirts, hoodies and sweatshirts. Specialised ink is applied directly to the target fabric using a DTG printer and results in a high quality finished product. The prints are bright and vibrant and retain the softness and flexibility of the garment.
This method of garment printing is most suited for one off designs and short runs of photo-quality prints and works best on 100% ring-spun cotton. There are no setup costs involved as there are with screen printing and turn around times can be much faster.

Our most popular DTG printed clothing

Best use of Direct to Garment printing
- When you require low order quantities
- If you want a design with gradients or photo quality imagery on your clothing
- Printing on garments made from 100% cotton
- Really fast turnaround time
What Direct to Garment is not for
- Large runs of garments due to the cost
- Single colour prints (Screen Printing or Vinyl Transfer would be better suited)
- Polyester based products
Preparing the Artwork
The artwork is colour corrected so RGB colours are converted to CMYK colours and checked for imperfections. The artwork is positioned in the desired place on the garment
Pretreating the garment
Before printing excess fibres are removed from the garment and pre-treatment is applied using an automatic pre-treat machine then dried with a heat-press. This allows the ink to absorb better into the garment fibres
Printing the design
The garment is placed onto the DTG printer's platten and the preset colour and ink settings are applied. The artwork is printed at 1200 dpi which results in high quality images on the garment. We can also print over seams, pockets, zippers etc.
