Sublimation is a fabric printing process in which dyes are injected into the fabric before the garment is assembled. This is in contrast to traditional screen printing in which ink is laid on top of the garment. Since the ink actually becomes part of the fibers within the fabric, designs don’t sit on top of the garment as with screen printing. This means that the design stretches along with the garment, won’t crack or fade over time, and the garment is able to maintain its full moisture wicking properties.
