Direct To
Garment
DIRECT TO GARMENT OR DTG IS A METHOD OF DIGITALLY PRINTING DIRECTLY ONTO A GARMENT WITHOUT NEED TO CREATE EXPENSIVE AND INEFFICIENT SCREENS THAT ARE USED IN SCREEN PRINTING. SINCE DTG PRINTS RIGHT ONTO THE FABRIC, THERE ARE NO LIMITS TO YOUR DESIGN. PHOTOS, FULL COLOR LOGOS, AND TEXT ARE ALL EASY TO PRINT, WITH NO SET-UP FEES OR DELAYS. DTG ALSO USES ECO-FRIENDLY INKS. THE INKS ARE VERY SOFT AND DO NOT RAISE UP OFF THE COTTON, BUT THEY WASH EXCEPTIONALLY WELL AND THE COLOR RANGE IS VIRTUALLY UNLIMITED

OUR PRINTING SOFTWARE SUPPORTS MILLIONS OF COLORS, SO THERE IS NO LIMIT TO THE NUMBER OF COLORS YOU CAN PRINT. DIRECT-TO-GARMENT PRINTING IS BEST FOR SHORT-RUN MULTI-COLORED DESIGNS. HOWEVER, THE PRINT QUALITY OF WHITE INK IN THE DTG PROCESS IS NOT AS HIGH AS SCREEN PRINTING.
