Silkscreen Printing Singapore

What it is: Silkscreen printing (also called screen printing) is a stencil-based printing method where ink is pushed through a mesh screen onto fabric, creating bold, opaque prints with exceptional colour saturation.

Best for: Bulk custom t-shirt orders, event merchandise, school uniforms, and any application requiring vibrant solid-colour designs on cotton or cotton-blend fabrics.

OrangeBox Asia’s execution: Our Singapore silkscreen facility uses oil-based inks optimised for durability in local climate conditions — prints that withstand repeated washing without cracking or fading. We can offer water-based eco-friendly ink options for clients seeking more sustainable printing solutions. We handle runs from 15 pieces upward, with per-unit costs that decrease significantly at volume. Standard delivery is 5-7 working days.

Silkscreen printing is the most cost-effective method for bulk custom t-shirts with designs of four colours or fewer.

Dye-Sublimation Printing Singapore

What it is: Dye-sublimation printing is a heat-transfer process that converts solid dye into gas, which then bonds permanently with polyester fibres at the molecular level. The result is a full-colour, edge-to-edge print that becomes part of the fabric itself.

Best for: Custom jerseys, cycling jerseys, sports singlets, performance activewear, and any garment requiring all-over photographic-quality prints on polyester or Dri-fit materials.

OrangeBox Asia’s execution: OrangeBox Asia is one of Singapore’s specialist dye-sublimation printers for custom jerseys and sports apparel. Our sublimation process supports unlimited colours, complex gradients, and photographic imagery with zero colour loss over time. Prints cannot crack, peel, or fade — making sublimation the gold standard for custom sports jerseys and cycling jerseys. Minimum order: 10 pieces. Turnaround: 3-4 weeks

DTF Printing Singapore (Direct-to-Film)

What it is: Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing is a next-generation heat-transfer method where designs are printed onto a special film, coated with hot-melt adhesive powder, and then heat-pressed onto garments — producing prints with exceptional stretch, softness, and wash durability.

Best for: Designs applied to multiple fabric types (cotton, polyester, nylon, denim, blends), complex multi-element designs, and short-run custom orders.

OrangeBox Asia’s execution: DTF prints can be applied to virtually any fabric and retain quality after 30+ wash cycles. We use eco-friendly, low-VOC sustainable inks throughout our DTF production process. Minimum order: 10 piece. Standard turnaround: 5–7 business days.
