Custom Digital Printed Apparel

DTG printing is a digital printing technique that applies ink directly onto fabric using specialized printers. Unlike traditional methods like screen printing, DTG allows for full-color prints without the need for multiple screens.

DTF printing is a digital printing technique that applies ink onto a film prior to apply on apparel. This method has elevated itself into the industry and has rapidly become a game changer for those crazy custom designs or when you need a shirt, like yesterday, turnaround times are quick.

Digital Printing is only going to get better!

Digital printing has revolutionized the apparel industry, offering unparalleled flexibility and quality for custom garment decoration. From its humble beginnings to its current state-of-the-art capabilities, digital printing continues to evolve, providing businesses and individuals with endless possibilities for expressing their unique style.

Direct to Garment Printing

Direct-to-Garment (DTG) Printing: At Brands and Logos, we specialize in two main methods of digital printing: direct-to-garment (DTG) and direct-to-film (DTF). Let's dive into the world of DTG printing first. DTG printing is a versatile and precise method that allows for the direct application of ink onto garments using specialized printers. This process is ideal for designs with intricate details, gradients, and vibrant colors.

Our Brother GTX Pro printers ensure top-notch quality by conducting tests on every design before printing. This attention to detail guarantees that your custom apparel exceeds expectations. DTG printing is particularly suitable for projects requiring high color volumes and complex artwork. Whether you're printing intricate graphics, photographs, or logos, DTG offers exceptional results on a wide range of garment styles.

We proudly partner with reputable brands like Colours and LA Apparel, ensuring that your DTG-printed garments are crafted from premium materials. These high-quality shirts provide the perfect canvas for your designs, delivering durability, comfort, and style.

Polyester Considerations: While DTG printing excels on cotton and cotton-blend fabrics, it's essential to consider the material composition when choosing garments. Polyester garments, in particular, may present challenges for DTG printing due to their moisture-wicking properties and low absorbency. However, our experienced team can provide expert guidance on selecting the most suitable garments for your project, ensuring optimal results.

Applications of DTG Printing: DTG printing is perfect for a variety of applications, including:

Custom T-shirts for events, promotions, and merchandise.
Personalized apparel for businesses, schools, sports teams, and organizations.
Unique gifts, souvenirs, and keepsakes for special occasions.

With DTG printing, the possibilities are endless. Whether you're looking to create promotional merchandise, commemorate a special event, or elevate your brand's image, Brands and Logos has you covered. Contact us today to bring your vision to life with our premium DTG printing services.

Pure Cotton Garments

DTG printing works exceptionally well on 100% cotton garments, offering vibrant colors and excellent print quality.
Advantages: Cotton fabrics readily absorb ink, allowing for crisp and durable prints with vivid colors and fine details.
Recommended Garments: We recommend premium cotton shirts like those offered by Colours or LA Apparel for optimal results.

Blended Garments

Compatibility: DTG printing is also compatible with 50/50 blended fabrics, although the results may vary compared to pure cotton.
Considerations: Blended fabrics may produce slightly muted colors and a softer print feel due to the polyester content.
Quality Assurance: Our team conducts thorough testing to ensure that the printing process achieves satisfactory results on blended garments.

Polyester Garments
