What is Sublimation Printing?

— Ideal for Custom Mugs, Tumblers, T-Shirts, and More

Sublimation printing is a process that uses heat to transfer dye into materials like fabric, metal, or coated ceramics. It's especially popular in custom product businesses.

🔧 How Sublimation Printing Works:

  1. Design your artwork using graphic software (like Photoshop or Canva).

  2. Print the design on special sublimation paper using sublimation ink.

  3. Heat press the printed design onto the product (e.g. tumbler or T-shirt) using a heat press machine.

  4. Under heat and pressure, the ink turns into gas and bonds with the surface of the product permanently.

  5. The result is a vibrant, long-lasting image that won't peel, crack, or fade.


💡 Benefits of Sublimation Printing:

  • ✅ Full-color, photo-quality images

  • ✅ Permanent print – won't fade or wash off

  • ✅ No texture on the surface – ink becomes part of the material

  • ✅ Great for short runs and personalized items

Tumblers Stainless steel with special coating
