Direct To Garment Printing Solutions (DTG)

Direct To Garment printing (DTG). With DTG printing the ink is printed directly on the fibre of the garment. DTG utilizes inkjet printing technology to send a full colour, detailed design directly from a computer to a digital printer with a garment loaded into it.

These inks are water-based, eco-friendly inks that are specifically designed to adhere to fabric when heat cured.

With DTG printing, a single person can take an order, print the items and prep everything for delivery before quickly moving on to the next job. Order to post in less than an hour.
