When beginning a sublimation project, there are a few important factors to consider before starting your work.  Clearly you will want to identify a high quality and reasonably proceed Wholesale Sublimation Printing company that you can communicate with easily, and that is capable of doing your work.

After selecting the right partner, identifying the proper garment to dye sublimate on and preparing the proper artwork for the project is the next important step.

Custom Dye Sublimation is more of an art than a production process.  While it’s possible to create multiple versions of the same design, there will always be small nuances in each.

In addition, post sew custom dye sublimation will often leave “artifacts” behind, like blank areas where sublimation could not occur due to folds in the garment.  Qualified custom dye sublimation experts like AMBRO Manufacturing do everything possible to keep the number of artifacts low, but it’s impossible for any printer to produce custom dye sublimation gear without some level of folding and artifacts.  Typically these issues occur under the arm pits or on the bottom side areas and if the artwork is created properly, they tend to blend in and not cause an issue.

When comparing the costs and turn around times required for cut and sew projects, where these nuances are a non issue, post sewn custom dye sublimation is often an acceptable alternative, even with these factors.

Custom All Over Print Shirts

Custom All Over Print Shirts

One of the most compelling and popular T-Shirt styles available today is the Custom All Over Print Shirts style.  This art effect is created using either all over dye sublimation or a jumbo over sized screen print.

As a custom garment, textile and fabric decorator with over 30 years of decorating experience, AMBRO Manufacturing specializes in Custom All Over Print Shirts using both Jumbo Screen Printing and Sublimation Printing.

The methodology used for your Custom All Over Print Shirts project depends on the requirement for each project.  For example, using custom dye sublimation printing, requires that the garment be made from 100% polyester or high poly thread counts.  The garment must also start out completely white and by dyed to the design or color desired.

Jumbo Screen Printing has no fabric or fabric color restrictions, multiple colors can be used but true “all over” effect is not possible to achieve and if it were, the ink would be so thick that the comfort level of wearing the garment would suffer.

Custom All Over Print Shirts are a great way to differentiate your brand identity, but working with an experienced over sized garment printing company is critical so that you and your team can avoid the possible landmines of the process.

Each method has advantages and disadvantages that need to be considered to ensure a successful outcome.

When comparing capabilities in the marketplace, it can confusing to consumers because there is no set definition of “Jumbo” or “Over Sized”  Most standard screen printing presses can print at a range of 14″ x 16″ so if a screen printing company has a press that can print 20″ x 20″ they may consider that as Jumbo and market it as such.

AMBRO Manufacturing defines Jumbo or Over Sized Screen Printing as the ability to print on the entire surface of the shirt with no limitations.  This means, neck to waist and shoulder to shoulder printing on both the front and the back.  AMBRO Manufacturing offers Custom All Over Print Shirts in it’s most literal sense.

Using specialized equipment that we have machined ourselves, AMBRO Manufacturing produces amazing seam to seam and All Over Print Shirt results.  We can take your concept from start to shirt within 10 business days or less.  If your brand or event is looking to stand out in a crowd of 12″ x 14″ designs, oversized screen printing is a great option and custom dye sublimation printing can create a wow as well.

When researching the right partner for your All Over Print Shirt project, be careful in describing what you mean by “jumbo” print.  That term is fluid and means something different to everyone.

Sublimation T-Shirt Printing

Firmly rooted in urban communities, young entrepreneurs are selling amazing works of art going door to door or directly out of their trunk.  The next FuBu could be out there.

The amazing part of working with the Sublimation T-Shirt Printing process is that fashion incubators can launch high quality retail level merchandise without the large cost of set ups and the high minimums that are usually associated with multiple color designs.

Companies like AMBRO Manufacturing offer low minimum quantities, just 12, to launch a brand.  Fashion entrepreneurs can launch a brand on a shoestring but have a product line that looks like they are a huge company.

Most fashion entrepreneurs think that they need to immediately jump into a cut and sew environment to produce truly unique garments.  While cut and sew does open up a wide range of fashion possibilities, the high costs associated with domestic cut and sew projects often scare would be fashion moguls away.

There are of course over seas cut and sew options, but the unknown of working with someone thousands of miles away, inconsistent quality control and the risk of pay first and wait for 8 weeks or more for product delivery, coupled with customs clearances and other issues, is not always the best option either.

Post sewn garments can be sublimated and done well with minimal issues.  While not perfect, this solution is often an acceptable compromise for start up fashion companies that are looking to launch their brand.
