Direct to Garment (DTG) Printing – vivid detail with a soft finish
DTG printing applies garment-safe inks directly onto the fabric with a high-precision inkjet process. Because the ink bonds into the fibers, you get clean lines, rich color and a comfortable feel—no thick, rubbery layer.
? Sharp detail for complex art
Great for intricate illustrations, tiny text, gradients and photo-style prints.
? Soft, breathable feel
Ink sinks in instead of sitting on top—comfortable for daily wear.
✅ Reliable longevity
With proper washing, prints remain vibrant without cracking or peeling.
When DTG is the right choice
- You want a custom, unique design (even 1 piece).
- You need small quantities without screen setup costs.
- Your artwork includes photos, gradients or many colors.
- You prefer a soft, natural print look and feel.
Tips for the best print quality
- Best results on cotton and high-cotton garments.
- Dark shirts use a white base layer for extra vibrancy.
- Durability depends on curing and proper garment care.
- Send high-resolution artwork for crisp detail.
Is DTG suitable for 1–5 shirts?
Yes — DTG is perfect for single pieces and small batches because there’s no costly setup like screen printing.
What does “no crack & peel” mean?
Since the ink bonds into the fabric, there isn’t a thick layer on top that can crack or peel.
Can DTG print photos?
Definitely — DTG handles photo detail, gradients and full-color images extremely well.
Does DTG feel heavy on the shirt?
Usually it feels soft. On dark garments, the white underbase can add a slightly fuller feel, but it stays comfortable.
