Due to its soft-feel and slightly less vibrant colour reproduction, DTG printing is a popular choice for retro and vintage style designs.

Full-colour and photographic images can be printed. | Colours in final prints are greatly affected by colour of backing fabric & will fade with time. |
Ink is applied directly to the T-shirt, eliminating any "plastic" feel. DTG offers the softest feel of all our print methods. | DTG prints are sensitive to fabric composition and will not reproduce as vibrantly as digital tranfers. |
Low setup costs and no minimum orders (1+ units available). | This print method is not as cost-effective for larger orders as the print process is far slower than screen printing, and the machinery & inks more expensive. |
Prints up to 28cm x 38cm can be achieved. | The durability of DTG prints are lower than that of transfers; making them ideal for prints requiring a worn or "vintage" look/feel, but making them generally unsuitable for heavy duty wear. |
Repeat orders do not incur setup fees. Once your artwork has been set up, we'll keep it on file indefinitely. | DTG is best printed on cotton based fabrics, 100% polyester is not suitable for DTG. |
