THE BEST OF THE BEST DIRECT TO GARMENT PRINTING

Direct to garment printing, also known as DTG, is another process we offer here at Woven Inc Limited. This process does exactly what it says. It prints your full colour image directly onto your garment in minutes. Imagine a paper printer but instead of paper being fed through it would be your garment of choice. Direct To Garment (DTG) printing is a revolutionary method of printing high-quality, full-colour custom apparel. With DTG, you can create stunning, intricate designs on a wide range of fabrics, including cotton, polyester, and blends. This technology has changed the game for the custom apparel industry.

Direct to garment printing: what is it?

DTG means direct to garment. In a nutshell it's a digital apparel printing process whereby you lay your garment flat on a printer bed and a specialised inkjet prints directly onto the garment.With DTG you have unlimited access to colours, although you will not get the same results as screen printing. Colours don’t tend to be as bright when using the DTG process but we can get them to pop really well. Also printing the same design on both white and coloured garments may show a slight different shade.

DTG is suitable for all garment colours but be careful when picking your fabric content as not all products can be DTG'd. This has since upgraded and some products with polyester content can now be printed on where as before this was not possible at all. One of the main advantages of DTG printing is its versatility. Because the ink is applied directly to the fabric, you can create designs not possible with other printing methods. This includes designs with gradients, shading, and even photographs. Plus, DTG printing is ideal for small to medium-sized orders, making it an excellent choice for small businesses, events, and individual

Understanding Your Needs

When you decide to request a quote

, it's crucial to clearly understand your needs. Start by listing down what services or products you are interested in. This detail helps the provider give you an accurate quote tailored to your specific requirements. For example, if you're looking to renovate your home, define the areas that need work, the materials you'd like to use, and any particular design features you have in mind.

Choosing the Right Provider

After defining your needs, the next step is to choose the right provider for your project. Research various companies to find out who has the best reputation and experience in your area. You may want to check customer reviews and ratings because these can give you insight into the provider's reliability and quality of work. A trustworthy provider will offer to provide a detailed quote after discussing your project requirements thoroughly.

Communicating Clearly

Clear communication is vital when you request a quote. Ensure that you convey all necessary details to the provider. This includes deadlines, budget constraints, and any specific preferences. When both parties understand each other's expectations, it helps avoid confusion later. For instance, if changes need to be made, a good understanding will facilitate smoother adjustments and ensure the final quote reflects the scope of work accurately.

Popular FAQ's

What machines are you working with

Another brilliant reason to use Woven Inc for DTG - the company recently upgraded their whole system. Instead of using heat presses to dry and cure garments, they have invested in high quality drying draws which give you the perfect finish every time without any press marks and hazing you can get when using a heat press.

Woven Inc currently has two brother pro GTX machines with two 6-Drawing drying cabinets.

Do you charge for colour changes

No we dont.

Do you have minimums

DTG doesn't have any minimum unit requirements or set up fees, so it becomes extremely cost effective for one offs or short runs, even for multi colour designs. Obviously single units are much more expensive than full runs. DTG is great because you can easily run single units to see what a physical product will look like, colour-wise, size wise and placement wise. It’s an ideal pre-production process without worrying about extra screen setups.

how long do you take

Generally anywhere up to 14 working day is a normal turn around from approving your artwork, obviously if they are ready any sooner we will ship them immediately. Although when ordering in busy season please leave up to 18-21 workings days to receive your order. Turn around times are not set deadlines they are estimated times for completion therefore your stock could be with you much sooner or slightly after this estimated date. 

Can i see my design before placing my order?

We do not visualise orders before confirming and paying for the order. As you can appreciate it takes a lot of time and attention to visuals all artwork before it goes to a printing stage. Once you have confirmed and made payment on your order all artwork is passed over to our design team and they will visualise your order back to you for approval before anything goes to print.

***We need an approval directly to our design team before any production starts.

What are your print sizes

Based on T-shirts see the maximum sizes and locations on the attached doc, sizing will vary depending on the product and product size you choose, DST Files are one size fits all. 
Take a look at our application sizes page for more information.

E.G if you have an Extra small Garment and a Triple Extra Large Garment the print can only go as large as a the Extra Small. Therefore it will look large on the Extra Small but on a Triple Extra Large it will look small in comparison to the garment size.

Understanding DTG Printing

What is DTG Printing?

DTG printing, or Direct-to-Garment printing, is a modern technique that allows for high-quality images to be printed directly onto textiles. It works much like an inkjet printer but is designed specifically for fabrics. This method is ideal for custom designs because it supports a wide variety of colors and intricate patterns. Because of these capabilities, DTG printing has become increasingly popular for personalized clothing, such as t-shirts and hoodies.

Advantages of DTG Printing

One of the biggest advantages of DTG printing is its ability to produce detailed designs without the need for screens or plates, unlike traditional methods. This means that you can print small batches economically and quickly, which is perfect for custom orders. Additionally, because DTG uses water-based inks, the finished products are soft to the touch and can withstand several washes without fading. Therefore, DTG printing is not only efficient but also results in high-quality items.

Applications of DTG Printing

DTG printing is widely used in the custom apparel industry, from small businesses to large manufacturers. Artists and designers often rely on this technology to bring their concepts to life, allowing them to offer unique products to customers. Furthermore, charities and events utilize DTG printing to create custom merchandise that stands out. Because of its flexibility and quality, DTG is an excellent choice for anyone looking to create personalized clothing items that represent their brand or cause effectively.
