Omaha Promos has written extensively about the various decorating processes we make available to our valued customers, but today we'd like to take a deeper dive into one of the most innovative custom T-shirt decorating options, and no it's not the old fashioned, icky feeling screen-printing of years gone by.

Note: We're not hating on screen-printing, indeed, it remains a cost effective solution for many of our custom apparel options, but these days there are options to consider, and Direct-To-Garment is one of them. 

So have you ever heard of DTG, or Direct-To-Garment printing? It's likely you haven't, because not all custom clothing and promotional companies offer this technique for customizing your T-shirts or other garments, but DTG provides incredible results. Plus, Direct-To-Garment is something of a newer technology in the world of custom clothing and custom T-shirt decorating, a relative baby compared to screen-printing and embroidery. Still, DTG has been around long enough now Omaha Promos is well familiar with this shirt decorating technique, and it's worth noting that printer manufacturers have made great strides in the technology in the last few years.

Three Reasons Direct-T0-Garment Printing is Hot for 2022 (and beyond)

  1. DTG is perfect for on-demand print jobs. DTG is awesome for smaller quantity custom shirt orders which require a speedy turn on a short timeline. Vendors can offer a wide variety of T-shirt designs without tying up inventory on items that might not sell quickly too, so it's a win-win for both vendor and customer.
  2. DTG creates photo-realistic imprints. DTG provides highly accurate and detailed images with vibrant colors, and the decorating process normally lasts the lifetime of the garment. DTG is oftentimes used on white shirts which are 100% cotton, but not everyone wants white and not everyone wants all-cotton; the good news is, equipment makers have responded and we now offer DTG solutions for darker fabrics and synthetics.
  3. DTG is a relatively easy process to learn and do well. It's not quite as effortless as pushing a button, but it's close. DTG technology is a fairly simple decorating method that yields beautiful custom clothing results for our customers. The other great thing about this decorating option is consistent results, time after time. That's not always the case with screen-printing, some deviation in the same run isn't uncommon if your promotional products and custom clothing vendor doesn't know what they're doing (this is due to more variables with screen printing).

Direct-To-Garment printing can be a wonderful way for Omaha Promos to create a new, custom designed T-shirt for your staff and to pass out to your clients. Summer is right around the corner and everyone appreciates an awesome t-shirt for work or play.
