What printing techniques does Printful offer?

DTG printing

DTG printing

Direct-to-garment (DTG) printing is ideal for detailed artwork and full-color designs. It prints directly onto fabric – perfect for t-shirts, hoodies, and sweatshirts featuring photos, gradients, or fine lines.

DTFlex printing

DTFlex printing

Our premium take on direct-to-film (DTF) technology, DTFlex delivers razor-sharp detail, bold colors, and ultra-clean edges. It’s great for intricate logos, fine fonts, and photo-realistic designs on cotton and synthetic apparel.

Embroidery

Add texture and polish to your branded merchandise. Embroidery uses thread to stitch bold logos or text onto hats, polos, denim jackets, and more. Best for clean shapes and high-contrast designs.

Sublimation printing

Sublimation printing

Sublimation infuses your design into the surface of the product, resulting in vibrant, long-lasting prints. It’s perfect for polyester-based items like socks and apparel, as well as coated hard surfaces like mugs and phone cases.

All-over printing

For designs that go edge-to-edge, all-over printing (AOP) is your go-to. We print on fabric first, then cut and sew it into products. It’s perfect for statement pieces, such as patterned hoodies and leggings.

Knitting

Knitting

Use jacquard knitting to turn your pixel-perfect designs into cozy, durable knitwear. This technique weaves the pattern directly into the fabric, offering a premium look for sweaters, beanies, and scarves.

Save big on bulk custom merchandise orders

Order in volume for better margins – the more you order, the bigger the discount.

Bulk discounts start at 25 items, which is the minimum threshold.
For example, if you order 25 Bella+Canvas 3001 t-shirts, your price drops from $10.25 to $8.92 per item – a 13% discount right away.

You can mix different designs within the same product.

As your order grows, so do your savings – with discounts of up to 55% on larger bulk orders.
