When ordering custom cricket jerseys, the two most common printing methods are Sublimation Printing and Screen Printing. Understanding the difference is critical.
Sublimation converts dye from solid to gas using heat and pressure, permanently bonding with polyester fabric. Result: colors that are part of the fabric itself — they cannot peel, crack, or fade.
Screen printing uses stencils to push ink onto the fabric surface. It works on cotton but sits on top of the fabric, making it vulnerable to cracking over time.
| Feature | Sublimation | Screen Print |
|---|---|---|
| Durability | Lifetime | 1-2 years |
| Color Limit | Unlimited | Limited |
| Best Fabric | Polyester | Cotton |
Verdict: For cricket jerseys, sublimation is the clear winner. All jerseys at Gyana Garments use full sublimation printing.
