Sublimation is a digital print technique where you can print full coloured images onto white, hard surfaces or polyester coated items.

 

First an image or logo is printed on sublimation paper with full colour (CMYK) printing. The sheets of paper are then automatically cut.

 

These printed sheets are applied onto a product using pressure, time and heat. During this process the ink changes from solid to gas particles which penetrate the surface of the item. Once the item is cooled, the ink is fixed within the surface or coating of the item.
