Fabric Printing Service

We specialise in printing materials for lampshades and have chosen a select range of textiles that provide excellent print quality at affordable prices for your project. These materials are selected because they have all the best attributes to make great lampshades.

Polytextile is the perfect textile for budget lampshades.  Linen has a beautiful appearance with surface interest when lit, and we also have Velvet for a luxurious, sumptuous feel. The materials also work well as matching cushions.

We use the Dye Sublimation transfer print process where the ink is firstly printed onto paper and then put through a calendar press to transfer it to the substrate. The process gives vibrant, impactful graphics to suit a wide range of applications.

About - Dye-sublimation
Dye-sublimation printing is a digital printing technology using full-colour artwork that works with polyester and polymer-coated substrates.
The result is beautiful and permanent colours that are embedded in the substrate or fabric, rather than printed on the surface.
Images on fabric won't fade or crack even after multiple washings.

How does it work?
Your design/artwork is printed on special transfer paper.
The image is then transferred from the paper to the fabric using a heated roller press, combining time, temperature and pressure to move the print to the material.
