What is Sublimation?
Introduction
what is sublimation? Simply put, it’s a popular method for customizing apparel, especially team uniforms and jerseys. Unlike traditional printing, which sits on top of the fabric, sublimation actually dyes the material itself. This means the colors are vibrant and long-lasting—perfect for teams that want their gear to stand out.
Here’s how it works: First, you create a digital design that represents your team’s spirit. This design is printed on special transfer paper using sublimation ink. When heat and pressure are applied, the ink turns into gas and bonds with the polyester fibers in the fabric. The result? A seamless, eye-catching look that won’t crack or fade over time.
At Offered Impex, we use sublimation to bring your custom uniforms to life, giving you the ability to showcase your unique style while ensuring comfort and durability for athletes. Ready to learn more about what sublimation can do for your team? Let’s dive in!

Design Creation
It all starts with your vision. You share your ideas, colors, and logos with us, and our talented team helps turn them into a stunning digital design that represents your team perfectly.
Printing

Heat Transfer
Next, we apply heat and pressure to the transfer paper, causing the ink to turn into gas and bond with the polyester fabric. This step is crucial, as it ensures that the design becomes part of the material itself. The result? Bright, eye-catching colors that won’t peel or fade!
