We offer top-quality sublimation inks from brands like Mimaki, Epson, Roland, and Kiian. Pair them with Transjet dye sublimation transfer paper for flawless transfers and equipment protection.
What to Consider When Choosing Sublimation Ink
The right ink makes all the difference in quality and efficiency. Here’s what to keep in mind:
Colour Vibrancy & Accuracy
Look for inks with a wide colour gamut that maintain sharpness and depth—even across large-format or high-speed runs.
Drying & Transfer Efficiency
Faster drying helps prevent smudging and keeps production moving. High transfer rates give your prints that crisp, photo-quality finish.
Printer & Media Compatibility
Ensure your ink is approved for your printer and suited to the media you’re printing on, whether it’s polyester fabric, metal, or coated surfaces.
Fade & Wash Resistance
For textiles, choose inks that hold up to washing, stretching, and regular wear without fading or bleeding.
Advantages and Applications of Sublimation Ink
Sublimation ink offers superior results in textile printing due to its unique gas-to-fibre bonding process. Here’s why it’s a top choice:
- Vivid Colours: Achieve bold, rich hues that remain vibrant over time, even with regular washing, ensuring striking visuals for a variety of projects.
- Exceptional Durability: Prints resist fading, cracking, and peeling, delivering long-lasting quality, perfect for items that see frequent use like sportswear and uniforms.
- Soft, Breathable Finish: The ink fully integrates with the fabric, leaving no residue or texture, creating a smooth finish ideal for clothing and ensuring comfort.
- Versatile Applications: From sportswear and promotional products to custom home décor, sublimation ink is suitable for a wide range of items, including polyester and synthetic fabrics.
- Enhanced Efficiency: When paired with dye sublimation protection paper, it ensures flawless transfers and protects your equipment, offering superior print results without damage to your machinery.
