Screen Printing & Embroidery
Screen printing applies ink through a stencil to create a printed design. Embroidery uses stitching to add a textured, sewn finish.
Sublimation Printing & Laser Etching
Sublimation uses heat to transfer a design into compatible surfaces. Laser etching creates a mark by altering the surface of a suitable material.

How to Choose a Method
For Fabric Designs
Screen printing is often considered for graphic designs on suitable fabric items, while embroidery can suit smaller marks where a stitched texture is the desired result.
For Compatible Surfaces
Sublimation is typically considered for full-colour artwork on compatible products. Laser etching may suit designs intended to show the contrast or character of a suitable material.
For Production-Ready Artwork
Design detail, colours, placement, and file quality can affect the best approach. Available options depend on the specific product, material, and production requirements.
Find the Right Fit for Your Project
Step 1
Start With the Product
Tell us what you’d like to customize, along with its material and the quantity you have in mind. These details help narrow down suitable decoration methods.
Step 2
Review Your Artwork
Share your design, or ask about artwork assistance if it needs preparation. We can discuss how its colors, detail, and placement may affect the choice of method.
Step 3
Confirm the Production Details
Compare screen printing, embroidery, sublimation printing, or laser etching against your product and production requirements. Confirm available options before moving forward.
The Right Method Depends on the Details
Each method serves a different purpose: screen printing places ink on a printable surface, embroidery creates a stitched design, sublimation printing integrates artwork into suitable surfaces, and laser etching marks compatible materials. Artwork assistance can help prepare a design for the method under consideration. No single approach is right for every item. The product’s material, shape, available decoration area, artwork, quantity, and production requirements all influence what may be suitable. Share the specifics of your project with Ion Graphix so the available options and any artwork needs can be confirmed before production proceeds.

Choosing a Printing and Decoration Method
Explore how each method works, then tell us about your product and design so we can confirm suitable options.
How do screen printing and embroidery differ?
Screen printing applies ink to a surface, commonly for graphic designs on apparel. Embroidery uses stitched thread for a textured finish. The best choice depends on the item, design detail, and production requirements.
When might sublimation printing be suitable?
Sublimation uses heat to integrate a design with a compatible surface. It can be an option for certain products and full-colour artwork, but compatibility depends on the item and its materials.
What is laser etching used for?
Laser etching marks a product’s surface rather than adding ink or thread. The resulting appearance varies by material and finish, so share the item you have in mind to check available options.
Can you help prepare my artwork?
Yes. Ion Graphix can discuss artwork assistance if your design needs adjustment or preparation. Send the files you have and explain how you want the finished design to look.
Can any design go on any product?
Not necessarily. Material, surface shape, design size, detail, and production requirements all affect which methods may be suitable. We can review your product and artwork before recommending an approach.
What should I include in my enquiry?
Tell us the product type, approximate quantity, preferred decoration method if any, design dimensions, placement, deadline, and any artwork files. These details help us confirm suitable services and available options.
