Sublimation Printing
Permanent color that becomes part of the fabric — ideal for polyester sportswear and promotional items
About This Service
Sublimation printing is a technology where ink turns into gas under heat and permanently absorbs into polyester fibers. The result is vibrant, photo-quality prints that never crack, peel or fade — even after 100+ washes. Ideal for sportswear, flags, caps, mugs and promotional items. Works on white or light polyester (min 65%). Craftarea offers professional sublimation printing in Tbilisi from 1 piece.
