Digital printing (DTG)

Detailed. Modern. Directly on fabric.

Digital printing (DTG – Direct to Garment) is a modern textile printing process in which the design is printed directly onto the fabric . Similar to an inkjet printer, the ink is applied precisely to the fabric – ideal for detailed designs , color gradients, and small print runs.

What is digital textile printing (DTG)?

In the DTG process, the design is printed directly onto the garment without a screen or transfer film . The colors penetrate the fibers, resulting in a very soft feel .

DTG is particularly suitable for cotton and organic cotton .

This is how the DTG procedure works

  1. The textile is pre-treated

  2. The image is prepared digitally.

  3. The printer applies ink directly to the fabric.

  4. The color is fixed by heat.

  5. Finished, detailed print

This process enables high-resolution prints without extensive preparation.
