So you’ve heard of this printing technique called sublimation, and you’d like to offer it to your customers but aren’t sure where to start. Well, you’ve come to the right place. 

Sublimation is a popular printing method that uses heat to transfer dye directly into materials like fabric, ceramics, and more, creating vibrant, long-lasting designs.

We’ll give you all the information you need to get started and show you how to take advantage of a growing interest in this widely used printing technique. The best part? We’ll introduce you to 22 top-selling sublimation products among Printful customers that are sure to inspire your next move.

What is sublimation printing?

Great question—it’s really quite fascinating. Sublimation uses inks that start out in a solid state, get rapidly heated into a gas, and then bond with the applied surface on a molecular level. Once cooled, it results in a long-lasting, sturdy print since the ink literally embeds itself into the material.

For clothes, sublimation works best with light-colored fabrics that are at least partial polyester blends, or polymer-coated surfaces. That said, sublimation printing can be applied to other materials like metal, glass, and ceramic.
