What is sublimation printing?

Sublimation printing is a method where heat is used to transfer dye onto materials such as fabric, metal, or plastic. This process allows for vibrant, durable prints that are embedded into the material.

How does a sublimation printer work?

A sublimation printer uses heat to convert dye into gas without going through a liquid stage. This gaseous dye then permeates the substrate and solidifies, resulting in a permanent and high-quality print.

What materials can be used with sublimation printing?

Sublimation printing works best on polyester fabrics or materials coated with a polyester layer. It is also effective on specially coated items like mugs, phone cases, and metal panels. These coatings ensure the dye bonds properly for a durable and vibrant print.
