Harnessing the Power of DTG

DTG can do it all. Want a t-shirt of your friend’s face for their birthday? Or a very detailed painting you once made on a shirt? DTG can make that happen. Compared to traditional screenprinting, DTG can accommodate more intricate designs with ease, whereas screenprinting looks better with a fewer amount of colors and detail. Direct-to-garment printing is a method that prints ink directly onto fabric using a high-end inkjet printer.

Now, let’s address the DTG myths.

‍

1. ”DTG is low-quality” — Direct-to-garment printing is JUST as good as screen printing. The colors are vibrant and high quality.

‍

2. “DTG doesn’t last” — DTG is PERMANENT. It will fade in the wash accordingly to how any other garment would or any other kind of printing. FEAR NOT.

‍

3. “DTG feels weird”  — We cure the ink with a belt dryer that allows the ink to dry more naturally as opposed to a heat press that gives garments a strange texture. Rock your DTG shirt with ease, it’s comfy.

Looking to try out a design before you place a full order? Looking to figure out the placement of your design on a garment? DTG is your solution. Its capabilities make it easy to print single runs rather than burning films and screens per ink color for screen printing.  Direct-to-garment is also perfect for someone who wants a soft feel on a garment.  DTG works best on 100% cotton garments because the cotton will allow the ink to absorb into the garment better.
