There is a huge amount of digitally-originated methods of decoration. All have something to
offer but if you use the wrong one for your job you will get a disappointing result,
which is the main reason people think they're a poor relation to a screen print.
They're not. They're just different.
Below is a precis of methods.
We now have a fantastic sublimation printer as well as a vinyl cutter.

Sublimation
Our new Sawgrass inkjet is a fabulous addition to our decoration method stable,
along with a sublimation oven for round items such as mugs.
Sublimation is a system that works by changing the colour of polyester/polyester coated materials.
Popular for mugs and other ceramics, but also bottle openers, flip-flops, jigsaws, bottles, the list is growing all the time.
Almost anything can be sublimated if it has a polyester coating applied.

Inkjet that prints directly onto the garment, giving the appearance of a screen print with minimal feel. Good for short runs of multicolour and photorealistic designs.
