The most cost effective way to achieve this is by way of photo transfer paper. You can, of course, 'try this at home', but results can be inconsistent and often very poor unless you have access to a commercial heat press and quality inkjet printer. Using a domestic iron cannot guarantee that the transfer manufacturer's guidance on pressing time and temperature are met and the results can suffer accordingly.
At shurtz, we press many hundreds of these transfers every year, always with excellent results. If the image you supply is crisp and clear so will be the result!
However, there are a few things you ought to know about these transfers. Although they are inexpensive to buy and apply, they have some drawbacks. The main disadvantage is that they will gradually fade with washing so cannot be considered permanent. That said, especially as regards smaller orders, they will be far less expensive than screen-printed, direct to garment printed and sublimation ink printed garments. Also on the up side, customer supplied photos and images can be cropped, edited, and text can be added if required before going to press.
Transfer printing is particularly suitable for one-off promotional and charity events, parties, stags/hens and even funerals. It offers flexibility and an excellent initial result at a very affordable price. We do have samples of transfer printed garments on stall for you to check out.
At the moment we can press transfers up to A4 (297mm x 210mm) in size, but, if the demand is evident, we always have the option of increasing this capability up to A3 (297mm x 420mm).
Call on stall, email or ring us to discuss your particular requirements. :)
