DIGITAL PRINTING – NEW ZEALAND
Digital printing for detailed, full-colour artwork.
Direct-to-garment printing reproduces gradients, photos and multi-colour designs without a screen for each colour, including on coloured garments.
Digital garment printing for New Zealand brands
OCC Apparel provides custom digital printing on t-shirts, hoodies and totes for New Zealand brands and organisations. Digital printing, often called direct-to-garment (DTG), transfers your design straight from a file onto the fabric. Intricate multi-coloured designs, including gradients and shading, are reproduced with precision.
We supply the garments, print them and ship New Zealand-wide. You see a free mockup first, and nothing is printed until you approve it.
Benefits of digital printing
- Water-based inks for a soft feel on cotton and organic cotton.
- No minimum order or set-up costs. A one-time set-up fee may apply to repeat runs of the same artwork and colour.
- Fast pre-production proofs, useful when you’re working to a tight deadline.
- Artwork flexibility: vector files, high-resolution images and digital photos.
- Vibrant colour with no spot colour versus process colour trade-off.
When to choose digital over screen printing
Choose digital printing for small quantities, full-colour designs, or names and designs that change from garment to garment. For spot-colour logos on larger runs, screen printing is usually better value. We’ll recommend the right method in your quote.
Our DTG printing uses water-based pigment inks.
