What is DTG?
Print directly onto the garment
DTG, or Direct-to-Garment printing, applies water-based textile ink directly onto a finished garment using advanced digital inkjet technology. Think of it like an industrial inkjet printer engineered specifically for fabric — allowing precise color reproduction, fine detail and on-demand production without preparing screens.
It is especially well suited to complex, full-color artwork while keeping the finished garment flexible and comfortable to wear.
