The Value of Sublimation
Dye-sublimation printing may not be new, but it's becoming a hot opportunity for in-plants eager to add value and generate revenue.
Simply put, dye-sublimation printing is the process of printing a transfer of a computer-generated image with a specific type of ink, and then using a heat press to apply the image to a variety of substrates. All of these substrates must be either made of 100 percent polyester or coated with a polymer that will receive and hold the sublimation dye. There are coated products made of ceramic, aluminum, plastic, wood and a variety of garments from T-shirts to athletic performance apparel.
