The top is a neoprene polyester material which enables us to print any design with no limits to design specs onto the top whilst the bottom protects the surface its on and ensures functional usability.

SUBLIMATION EXPLAINED:

Sublimation printing uses heat to essentially bring ink and fabric or a product together as one.

First, a design is printed onto special paper. The inks that are used turn into gas when brought under heat, then combine with the fabric /product and permanently print onto the fabric/product. The effects are permanent and less prone to fading, as the ink is embedded in the fabric or substrate rather than simply laying on top like a normal print. The process is almost like a tattoo, but instead of for your skin, it’s for your chosen product. The heat opens up the pores of the fabric, then with the applied pressure the ink cools and returns to a solid form. The result is a permanent, full colour image that won’t crack, peel or wash away from the substrate. The process allows the ink to go from a solid to a gas without turning to liquid, a bit like dry ice. The conversion is initiated by heat and controlled by pressure.

Sublimation printing is a popular method of printing which aims at transferring a design from sublimation paper onto a piece of fabric or material by using pressure and heat (between 350 – 400 degrees). Changing the solid particles of the ink into a gaseous state, it is an easy and cost-effective way of adding personalisation to products that is used by both companies and people at home.
