What is the fastest possible turnaround?

• NOTE: only applicable for products which require your design: To make sure that your order is delivered at the indicated time, it is important that we receive your file with your design for the product, on time (also called cut-off time). In this way the product can be moved into production on time. The deadline is always communicated in the final step when putting your product together and in the box on the right which details your entire order.
• The cut-off time for your printed item may vary. This depends on the combination you choose. This has to do with the manufacturing technique and / or the order quantities.

Which production techniques do you use?

• Digital (also called Direct-to-Garment or DTG) - with this technique, the ink is printed directly onto the product. This makes it possible to switch easily to another print per product. However, it takes quite a long time to print a product. For a limited amount (up to 50 pieces) DTG is the best technique to use. With DTG it is only possible to print full colour.
