    How DTG printing works

    DTG printing is a cutting-edge technology that directly applies ink onto the fabric, much like your office inkjet printer works on paper but optimised in an industrial format for textiles.

    For a step-by-step overview of the process CLICK HERE:

    1. 1. Garment Pre-Treatment: The image area is pre-treated with a PT solution that helps the ink adhere to the fabric, resulting in vibrant colours and durability.

    2. Digital Preparation: Your design is digitally prepared through our website. The Rip software then renders the artwork for the printer, optimising the image for the best result.
    3. Printing: Our advanced Brother GTX Pro Bulk DTG printers print your design directly onto the garment with precision and detail.
    4. Curing: The printed garment passes through our Adelco heat tunnel, curing ink into the garment for long-lasting wear.
    5. Quality Check: Each item undergoes a thorough quality check to ensure it meets our high standards before it's ready for pickup or shipping.

    Can I Print On Hats?

    Yes, we have a large selection of hats that can be digitally printed using the DTF (Direct to film) printing method.

    How Do I Design My Own Custom Merch?

    Our online design tools allow you to upload print-ready design files or customise and create from scratch! Once you have chosen your garment, you can add logos and graphic elements, add custom text, change print colours, or choose to start with a stock design from our extensive library.

    What File Formats Are Best For DTG Designs?

    Depending on the artwork you wish to print, there are optimal file formats that will deliver the best quality print of your design. Once your file is uploaded, our designer tool will prompt you with Green (High Quality), Yellow (Mid Quality), or Red (Low Quality) warnings where relevant. Low-quality images will look pixelated once printed; the severity of this depends on the detail in your design.

    High-resolution graphics (300dpi) are always best for full colour graphic elements and photographs, preferably supplied as either transparent .PNG or rasterised .JPG, .TIF, and .BMP files.

    Vector files (.EPS, .PDF, .CDR) are ideal for logos and scalable designs with intricate linework. After you have uploaded the vector, our online design tool allows you to adjust the colours in your design to suit the garment you have chosen.

    If you are unsure about file types, our staff can provide you with advice and guidance over chat or phone
