Polyester logo mockups

Polyester takes thread and ink like cotton, plus sublimation: dye that goes into the fibre and leaves the fabric's own surface untouched. It is the material of sports kits and technical garments.

Techniques on polyester.

The editor offers embroidery, 3D puff embroidery, sublimation, print (screen / digital) and embroidered patches on polyester, and more under other methods. Each one looks the way it does in real life.

On polyester

Main Embroidery Satin and fill stitches; the thread follows the shape and the fabric. Main 3D puff embroidery Raised stitches over a foam layer; edges catch light and throw shadow. Main Sublimation Dye inside the polyester or the glaze; the surface keeps its gloss. Main Print (screen / digital) Opaque ink: matte in the weave on fabric, glossy on hard goods. Main Embroidered patches A stiff, sewn-on piece: raised, matte, with its own edge shadow. Other method Hot foil stamping Metal foil pressed in; it mirrors the room's light.

How polyester behaves

Sublimation Offered here and on ceramic only: the dye bonds to polyester, not to cotton.

No discharge Water-based discharge works on cotton; it is not offered on polyester.

Polyester, asked often

Why do my sublimated colours look weak on a dark shirt?

Sublimation has no white and is transparent: on dark polyester the colours fade. Use screen print for light colours on dark garments.
