Sublimation Printing For Custom Kit
Full colour, edge to edge, permanently bonded into the fibre. No cracking, no peeling, no weight, no limit on how many colours you use. This is how a modern kit is printed.
Colour Inside The Weave, Not On Top Of It
The Ink Becomes Part Of The Fabric
Screen printing and vinyl sit on top of the fabric like a sticker. That is why they crack, peel and fade. Sublimation does something different. Under heat and pressure the solid dye skips the liquid stage entirely and turns straight into a gas, which opens the polyester fibre and bonds inside it.
When it cools, the fibre closes with the colour locked inside. Run your hand over a finished Rexmon jersey and you will not feel the print at all, because there is no layer to feel. The design is the fabric.
Start A Custom DesignThe Five Stage Line
Every sublimated order at Rexmon runs through the same five stages, and quality is checked at each one.
Artwork Setup
Your design is laid onto the cut pattern so logos, numbers and stripes line up perfectly across every seam.
Colour Proofing
A strike off is printed and checked against your Pantone references under daylight before bulk begins.
Transfer Printing
Large format printers lay the design onto transfer paper at full production width.
Heat Press
Paper and fabric pass through the calender press. The dye gasses off and bonds into the fibre.
Cut And Stitch
Printed panels are cut and assembled into the finished garment, then inspected piece by piece.
Sublimation Against The Alternatives
We offer embroidery and other decoration too, so this is not a sales pitch. It is where each method genuinely wins and loses.
