DTG PRINTING

Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing is a popular digital printing method that uses specialised inkjet technology to achieve full-colour, photographic printing on textiles and apparel.

As the name suggests, ink is printed directly on the surface of a garment, colouring the fibres of the fabric rather than 'covering' them.

With its visibly sharper print and higher resolution results, it has the cutting edge over traditional methods and is now spearheading the production of designs without the set-up, waste, or clean-up process.
