At a time when societal norms are constantly evolving and becoming less strict, we are looking towards achieving gender equality. While most people may only think of gender equality as equal wages and rights, one aspect that’s commonly overlooked is the clothes we wear. Yes, fashion does play a part in gender stereotypes and perceptions, and can carry an unconscious bias against one gender. If you’re a business owner or planning to produce work uniforms for your employees, you may want to consider taking a step toward progressiveness by adopting gender-neutral clothing. Here are just some of the reasons why you should do so.

We get it. Singapore can get unbearably hot at times, to the extent that we want to take off our clothes. However, of course, this isn’t possible unless you’re planning to take a dip in the pool, so the next best thing we can do is to wear clothes that are not only comfortable, but also breathable and lightweight to provide us with good air circulation. This is why choosing suitable fabrics is so important, as the material of your t-shirt can help you stay cool and enjoy the outdoors under the sun.

People order customised t-shirts for various occasions, from corporate team building days and roadshows to school events and as class t-shirts. The possibilities are truly endless and people are encouraged to tap into their creative sides to come up with a cool t-shirt design that stands out from the crowd. Now, here’s the catch, though. Customised t-shirts (or any customised items, really) have a reputation for being costly, and if you don’t do sufficient research or plan ahead, this can be a huge problem, especially for students looking for cheap class tee printing services.

As it’s safe to say that polo shirts look good on all body types and will never go out of style, it should come as no surprise that polo shirts are and will always be popular among men and women around the world. From schools to large-scale companies, polo shirts have been relied on for many purposes as a form of comfortable clothing. Whether you’re planning to engage with polo shirt printing services for a corporate event, business purposes, or simply to create a customised shirt for your personal use, it’s important to bear in mind a few considerations before going ahead with the production process. As such, here are some essential things to consider before deciding to print your custom polo shirt.

You’ve probably heard of DTG (direct-to-garment) printing, but how about DTF printing? No worries if this is your first time encountering these two words, as we’ll give the lowdown on this latest printing method. DTF printing stands for direct-to-film printing, and, as the name suggests, is a technique that prints your desired design onto a film before transferring it to the t-shirt of your choice. Since DTG printing and DTF printing sound pretty similar, it’s common for people to mistake the two as being the same thing, which is not true. Therefore, in order to clear up any misconceptions, we’ve provided a comparison between the two for you to analyse their differences. 

These days, it’s no longer uncommon to see students wearing their class tee shirts, so much so that the public now knows which class and year some students belong in, rather than just the school they come from. Some schools have even allowed students to forgo their uniforms and come wearing their class tee shirts on casual days. While this recent trend may raise eyebrows among the more traditional crowd, it shouldn’t be surprising that custom tee shirts are all the rage among students. Regardless if you belong to a secondary school or tertiary college, or simply want to print for a school event, custom class tee shirts are an excellent investment as they provide a host of advantages, listed below.

Fun fact: do you know that cotton accounts for roughly 24% of all fabrics produced around the world? This statistic shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise, considering that cotton is widely regarded as the world’s most valuable natural resource due to its benefits. You can thank its high durability, colour retention, and absorbent properties for this recognition. Therefore, cotton is one of – if not the most – popular and well-attested materials when it comes to making clothing pieces, including t-shirts.

Customised t-shirts have never been easier to produce than now. As t-shirt printing techniques become more sophisticated and even technologically advanced, as explicitly seen with DTG printing, customised t-shirts are readily accessible to all groups of people, and can be produced more efficiently and cost-effectively than before.

According to the Geneva Environment Network, 10% of carbon emissions produced globally are attributed to the fashion industry. This huge number is profoundly concerning, as carbon emissions can lead to several long-term environmental threats, such as air pollution, increased wildfires, climate change, and many more. We can say that the same goes for the textile and printing industries as well.

Even though it is debatable whether technology is mainly beneficial or harmful to our lives, there is no denying that it has positively impacted the custom t-shirt printing industry. Direct-to-garment printing, otherwise known as DTG printing for short, is a relatively new process for printing customised t-shirt designs, requiring the use of sophisticated DTG printers to spray an aqueous ink onto a t-shirt, creating the desired image. You will find that DTG printers have a hoop or frame to secure the t-shirt in a secure position, which helps to prevent creases or misprinting during the printing process.
