“It’s a kind a Magic!”
Dye sublimation printing is truly magical. The trick is how it happens and the treat is the result we get.
This digital printing method allows us to print full colour on to our Polyester fabrics. Using a combination of heat and pressure reveals a vivid coloured image on the fabric.
We initially print a mirror image of your design onto the recycled transfer paper. The heat itself turns the solid dyes into a gas (spooky indeed) and the pressure of the rollers pushes the colour through the woven fibres. The results are extraordinary – the trapped colour sets to a solid again embedding the image so that it doesn’t fade over time and is hard wearing.
This fast and efficient printing method is ideal for fun repeat patterns this Halloween.
Get your costumes looking magical with one of your own designs. With a minimum order of just 1m you could be ready in a twitch of your nose.
Why not try our Poly Crepe de Chine, or if you’re after some added texture, the Poly Jacquard Spot? For a bit of sparkle against those pumpkin lanterns, there’s the Poly Lurex.
What an impression you’ll make!
