Benefits of DTG

Directly to print, also known as DTG printing, is a process for pressing textiles with the help of environmentally friendly and water-based inkjet technology. The writing head prints ink directly on the garment in the desired design. This method was introduced in the late 1990s and has become increasingly popular because of its ability to quickly and easily produce high quality prints.

DTG printing is most often used for t-shirts, but can also be used on other garments such as hood sweaters, linen and more. The process begins with a digital file of the design created either by the customer or by our team of designers. Once the file has been created, it is sent to the printer where it is printed out on the garment.

The advantages of DTG printing include the ability to print complex designs, full color prints and small quantities. This makes DTG printing the perfect option for companies or private individuals who want to create customized T-shirts without having to order a large amount.

Prepare your pressure file

Once you have chosen T-shirt, you must have a file for printing. This means creating a high -resolution picture of the design, which can be done in Photoshop or Illustrator. The image should be at least 300 DPI and saved as a PDF or EPS file.

To choose the correct size of your tshirt

When pressing t-shirts, it is important that you choose the right size of the sweater. We have a large selection of different sizes, from S to 5XL.
