About direct-to-garment printing (DTG)
Digital direct-to-garment printing is simply the process of printing designs direclty onto textiles. We use a digital printer, which allows us to offer small batch printing. There are no set up charges and no minimum orders, you can order what you need.
We can offer a full color range for all custom DTG tea towel designs with a maximum print area of 24” x 16”. The cost of the print is based on the ink used. This means that a full-color, maximum print area design will cost more than text or line drawings. Generally the cost will fall between $8.50 - $12.00 CAD, which is about $6.50 - $9.00 USD.
We accept PNG, JPG/JPEG, TIFF, PDF or vector files, sized to print, at 300 dpi but prefer 300 dpi PNG files with a transparent background.
Turnaround time depends on the order volume but is generally two weeks.We have 2 tea towel sizes:
Regular: 26 X 19”, maximum print area 24 X 16 inches.
Small: 23 X 19”, maximum print area 20 X 16 inches.
Direct to Garment printing offers high quality prints.
- DTG printing will capture every fine detail, even the ones you overlook. It's really important to make sure your file is clean before submitting it.
- Because we print on fabric, some fine details may be lost in the weave of the fabric. That said, we will always work with you to point out possible issue.
- Need help with your design? 15 minutes of editing is included in the quote. If more time is needed, artwork time is $20 CAD for every quarter hour (15 mins).
- Order one DTG sample tea towel, with your artwork for a flat rate of $40.00 CAD, which includes the shipping. Inquire for multiple custom DTG sample prints.
We do not print edge-to-edge! This is because our tea towels are pre-sewn and we cannot print on the seam.
