What is direct to garment printing (DTG)? 

Direct to garment printing is the process of printing logos and designs directly onto garments. With this method, it is possible to print onto a wide range of clothing types, with an unlimited number of colours and designs. And with our market-leading technology, you’ll get the best possible results for your DTG printed clothing when you buy from A.M. Custom Clothing.

With direct to garment printing, the ink is injected into the fabric, allowing your design to stretch and move as the garment is worn over time. This means, unlike traditional screen printing, the durability of DTG printed clothing is typically much longer. 

With no minimum order quantity and a lot of flexibility, direct to garment printing is ideal for those with highly detailed design work such as full-colour photographs, or those requiring small order volumes.

  • Won’t crack or fade over time

Quality and feel of DTG printing

When DTG printing, ink is embedded into the fabrics providing a finish that is typically softer than other print methods. The ink cannot crack or peel off over time.

With DTG printing, you can expect a high-quality finish that’s soft to the touch, as the water-based inks sit within the fabric, rather than on top of it. This ensures increased durability, making direct to garment printing ideal for merchandise and retail products. 

When using direct to garment printing on dark fabrics, a base coat is required. In this instance, the print may feel slightly raised when compared to an identical print on a white garment.

How much does it cost to DTG print? Is it expensive?

With prices coming in much lower than traditional print methods, wholesale DTG printing prices for T-shirts can be as low as £5.20, with all production undertaken here in our DTG UK printing facilities.

Products that can be DTG printed



DTG printing works best on products with a high percentage of cotton. For the best results, we advise opting to print onto products with at least 70% cotton.
