Sublimation T Shirts

Creating Sublimation T Shirts was once only done prior to the T Shirt being sewn.  Fabric was sublimated and then cut and sewn into a T Shirt.  Today with advances in sublimation printing technology, specialized printers like AMBRO Manufacturing can print Sublimation T Shirts on T Shirts that are already T Shirts.

The results of printing Sublimation T Shirts after they are already sewn are spectacular, there are however some draw backs.  Typically this type of sublimation printing is done on a large industrial clam shell type heat press vs. the roll to roll fabric sublimation presses used in cut and sew operations.

While there are some minor drawbacks, start up T Shirt companies and large established companies should still consider post sewn dye sublimation, with the right design work and art, the end product rivals cut and sew products.  You might be surprised how many post cut and sew sublimated T Shirts are in stores today.

One of the biggest benefits of post sewn Sublimation T Shirts is that the cost is far lower than sublimating fabric and cutting and sewing that fabric into a T Shirt.  One of the largest draw backs is the creasing or lack of sublimation that can occur on the sides or arm pits of the t-shirt.

Sublimation T Shirts relies heavily on high heat and flat transfer areas.  If there are any creases in the T Shirt when the heat is applied, it is possible that white areas are left un-sublimated.

Since the lower cost generally outweighs slight imperfections and white areas in difficult to notice places, Sublimation T Shirts on post sewn T Shirts has become very popular.
