Sublimation Printing Singapore | Full-Colour Printing for Polyester Apparel

Looking for vibrant, photo-quality prints that won’t peel or crack? Sublimation Printing is the ideal solution for full-colour designs on polyester garments. At ChromaPrint, we specialise in sublimation services that deliver edge-to-edge, permanent prints with stunning clarity—perfect for sports jerseys, event wear, and promotional apparel.

What is Sublimation Printing?

Sublimation printing is a digital transfer process where special dye inks are heat-pressed into polyester fabric. Under high temperature and pressure, the solid ink converts into gas and bonds directly with the fibres, creating a permanent, vivid print that won’t wash out or fade.

This makes sublimation ideal for:

All-over printed t-shirts
Dry-fit jerseys and team uniforms
Corporate or branded merchandise
Custom event wear and marathon tees
Tote bags and promotional products (poly blend only)

Watch how it works:

✅ Advantages of Sublimation Printing

Retail – fashion brands with bold, seamless graphics
Art & Design – illustration or photo-driven clothing

FAQs

Q: Can sublimation be done on cotton?

A: No. Sublimation requires polyester or poly-blend fabrics to bond properly.

Q: Will the print fade or peel?

A: Not at all. The ink becomes part of the fabric, making it wash-proof and fade-resistant.

Q: What’s the MOQ?

A: For full-sublimation (cut & sew), MOQ is 50 pieces. For smaller placements (like chest logos), MOQ can be 10 pcs.

Q: Can I sublimate on coloured tees?

A: Sublimation works best on white or very light fabric. On darker shirts, the design will not appear clearly.

Q: Is the print breathable?

A: Yes, sublimation doesn’t block airflow because there’s no added ink layer—it feels like part of the fabric.
