How Does Dye Sublimation Work?

Sublimation printing is a distinctive method of producing vivid and long-lasting prints. It bypasses the liquid phase and converts the particular type of ink in its gaseous form into a solid directly upon contact with the material. This creates a durable, permanent bond between the ink and the medium, providing a high-quality finish.

The sublimation printer utilizes dispersed dies in gas form (the ink) to print the desired image onto transfer paper. This paper is then placed onto the final product and subjected to high heat and pressure via a heat press.

What Do You Need for Dye Sublimation?

For successful dry-sublimation printing, a few key components become necessary. These include a sublimation printer, sublimation paper or textile for direct printing, RIP software to generate print-ready files, a heat press, and a cutting mechanism such as a rotary blade. Minimal additional materials are necessary for successful dye sublimation printing.

Why choose dye-sublimation?

Dye-sublimation offers excellent results in terms of visuals and accuracy compared to the original designs. Moreover, its exceptional longevity ensures that the printed images remain vibrant and undamaged without fading, peeling, flaking, or degrading.
