Direct-to-garment printing, more commonly known as DTG printing, is a method of printing in which ink is directly applied to fabric with a specialized inkjet printer. With this technology, you can print high-resolution, full-color designs that require intricate details and gradients, making it an ideal choice for custom apparel.
Which fabric is best to use for DTG?
DTG works best on cotton-based fabrics as the ink is more easily absorbed into its fibers which then results in a soft seamless print. Of course, DTG can also be used in other fabrics, like polyester and blends.
DTG is a sustainable printing method as it can be used to produce On Demand swag orders without needing to use screens or stencils. Unlike traditional screen printing, which requires you to set up each color, DTG prints designs digitally, making it more cost-effective for one-time production runs.
