Sublimation Swimsuits: The Ultimate FAQ Guide

This guide has all information you’re looking for about sublimation swimsuits.

So, before importing sublimation swimsuits from China, read this guide.

Let’s dive right in.

What Is Sublimation And How Does It Work For Sublimation Swimsuits?

Sublimation is the transition of matter directly from solid to gas without the intermediate liquid stage.

In custom apparel printing, sublimation is used to transfer digital artwork from paper to fabric. It uses a CMYO (Cyan-Magenta-Yellow-Overprint) inkjet.

Here is how it works:  First, the digital artwork is printed onto a special sublimation transfer paper.

The next step involves transferring the print to a substrate. Here, we ‘marry’ the paper to substrate, which is the swimsuit fabric.

We then place the paper and fabric onto a heat press with running temperatures of around 400°F.

As the paper and fabric go into the rollers, the heat and pressure create a gaseous ‘explosion at a slow rate speed.’

The explosion causes the dye to transform from solid to gas. It also expands the pores of the fabric and allows the gas to be drawn into the pores.

Just as quickly, the fabric cools as the pores close again, allowing the dye to become solid and permanently embedded into the fabric.

The process creates a photographic reproduction of the digital print-beautiful, vibrant, and long-lasting.

What Is The Advantage Of Sublimation Printing On Swimsuits?

Here is why sublimation printing is quite popular in the sportswear manufacturing industry:

• Full-color printing: unlike regular printing, sublimation allows eye-popping colors and intense details in your artwork to show perfectly. The full-color images are sure to grab attention instantly.
• Durable prints: Sublimation printing will give you the longest-lasting colors in your swimsuit fabric. Sublimated prints are guaranteed to last 20 plus years because they are encased in the sealed polymer cells of the fabric.
• Fabric retains its properties: with dye sublimation, no ink buildup will impact the moisture-wicking ability of the swimsuit fabric. Fabrics remain light, soft, and breathable.
• Design freedom: sublimation printing allows you complete control over your designs.
  As the process does not require screens or specialist plates, you can customize your swimsuit design with as many colors and elements that you want.
• No minimum quantities: unlike other printing methods, it costs the same amount to print one swimsuit piece that it does to print 100.
  Meaning, you don’t need minimum order quantities to buy sublimated swimsuits for your team or business.
• Environmental friendly: The amount of residual waste from dye sublimation printing is pretty negligible.
• Reduced lead times: dye sublimation can boost production speed and reduce cost through batch printing.
  The dwell time is the same for printing 100 swimsuits as for one, and we can print as many swimsuits as can fit under the heat press.

What Fabrics Do Sublimation Swimsuits Use?

Sublimation swimsuits primarily use fabrics with a polymeric cellular structure. The cellular construction of these fabrics allows the sublimation dye to seep into the pores and hold permanently.

Having said that, 100% polyester is the best and most popular fabric for sublimation swimsuits.

It guarantees superior prints since 100% of the fabric will accept gaseous dyes when inducted into the open polymer pores.

Besides, polyester is pretty soft and comfortable. It is also highly durable than most synthetic fibers. The fabric is shrink-resistant. Meaning, sublimation swimsuits will hold their shape well even after numerous washes.

Polyester makes for the ideal fabric for performance swimsuits with its strong fibers, quick drying, and exceptional breathability.

What is more is that you can blend it with different fabrics such as cotton, nylon, and spandex to improve its properties.

Nylon is soft, lustrous, and abrasion-resistant. When mixed with polyester, it will improve the garment’s feel and durability.

Combined with spandex or Lycra, polyester will have improved stretchability. This makes the resulting swimsuits comfortable and flexible, with a remarkable ability to retain shape.

On the other hand, cotton is known for its softness and high durability. Adding it to swimsuits will make them more comfortable and longer-lasting.

Please note that with blended fabrics, polyester must be at least 50%. Only in this way will you achieve clean sublimation prints that are vivid, vibrant, and long-lasting.

What Is The Difference Between Custom Sublimated Swimsuits And Stock Sublimation Swimsuits?

Custom sublimated swimsuits are made to a client’s unique tastes and requirements.

With sublimation printing offering limitless design possibilities, a custom order is a perfect chance to explore your creativity.

On the other hand, stock sublimation swimsuits are pre-made to factory standards. There is no chance to customize the design and artwork.

Stock options are ideal when you have a tight deadline or limited finances. They do not compromise quality or performance.

Businesses can also add customized tags and labels to sell under their brand’s name.

What Are Some Tips For Designing Sublimation Swimsuits?

You should know that not every swimsuit is designed or created equally. Each design has its unique features and characteristics.

In addition, not all designs get approved for manufacture. No matter how unique or trendy, if the design cannot be manufactured, there is no point.

As such, it is essential to design a swimsuit that can actually be manufactured. Look beyond functionality and aesthetics, as this won’t matter if the design is not feasible enough.

With that said, here are three main tips for designing an achievable sublimation swimsuit:

Has An Inspiration

A good design should be inspired.

Whether it is pop culture, tropical weather, emerging trends, etc., a great inspiration will underpin the direction of your sublimation swimsuits design.  It will determine the specific elements you incorporate into the design to make it catchy and bespoke.

Besides, tracing your design elements can be helpful when making changes and adjustments as you progress. It will ensure that you preserve that element of inspiration and make it easy to tweak to meet the manufacturing requirements.

Draw More Designs That Are Needed

Yes! It is advisable to draw more than one design for your sublimation swimsuits because, who knows, the conversation with your manufacturer may change.

You may need to eliminate some designs due to futuristic changes and adjustments. Having a surplus prevents you from going back to the drawing board.

Get A Perspective

Try adding some physical features to your design to get an overall idea of how the final product may look.

For instance, if you want to add a frill to your swimsuit design, you may want to cut out a sample and try adding it to the design.

This should give you a rounded perspective on the final product and gauge its overall feasibility.

An additional tip is to consider your color combinations. Try choosing ink colors that sell. The better the contrast in your colors, the better the final product will look.

Do You Offer Custom Sublimation Swimsuits Design Assistance?

Absolutely!

Our custom sublimation apparel design process is simple and fun. It allows you to let your creativity shine without sacrificing quality or performance.

We have an in-house design team ready to help you feature your design and artwork on custom sublimation swimsuits.

Our team can also help you create something unique to your team or brand.

GoalSportswear understands the importance of fusing great style with function.

So you can expect your sublimation swimsuits from us to be comfortable and durable with vivid and vibrant colors that express your team’s/brand’s uniqueness.

Are There Any Design Limitations For Sublimation Swimsuits?

Of course not!

As we’ve mentioned severally, sublimation swimsuits offer endless design opportunities.

You can customize the design with names, numbers, clipart, and artwork unique to your tastes and preferences.

The only downsides to sublimation swimsuits are the facts that they can be costly due to the cost of ink, which is usually factored into the product pricing.

Also, sublimation swimsuits must either be made of polyester or polyester blend fabrics, limiting your fabric choices.

Another disadvantage is that sublimation substrates have to be ideally white or light-colored to give a clean print.

This is because the colors in sublimation dyes cannot be used on dark substrates such as black or dark brown.

Nonetheless, the advantages of sublimation swimsuits outweigh their cons. So this shouldn’t discourage you from investing in them.

What Are Styles And Variations Do You Offer For Sublimation Swimsuits?

GoalSportswear offers a wide range of styles and sizes of sublimation swimsuits for men and women that you can think of!

We can supply everything-form one-piece, two-piece, bikini, backless high cut, and knee-length swimsuits.

What Is The Difference Between Screen Printed And Sublimation Swimsuits?

Sublimation vs. Screen Printing

There are several differences between screen printed and dye sublimation swimsuits.

They include:

• With sublimation swimsuits, prints bond with the fabric, whereas screen-printed designs lie on the surface.Sublimated artwork is permanent and will not fade or peel off. But as the ink is pressed on the fabric, there is a chance that screen-printed designs will wear with time.

• Although the cost of manufacturing and sublimating swimsuits tends to be higher than screen-printed ones, it decreases with time and volume.Screen printing is more cost-effective when you need to customize a large volume.However, it requires changing screens and plates to print multiple colors and design elements, increasing setup costs.Sublimation printing has no setup costs, making it cheaper to print multiple color designs with dye sublimation.

• Sublimation swimsuits feel different than screen-printed ones.If you run a hand over a screen-printed swimsuit, you will feel the thickness and roughness of the design on the fabric’s surface.This is not the case with sublimation swimsuits, as the designs are embedded into the fabric.

• The colors on sublimation swimsuits are vivid and vibrant, whereas screen-printed colors may appear dull or distorted.

What Sizes Do Sublimation Swimsuits Come In?

Sublimation swimsuits are not one-size-fits-all.

Whether you need adult or youth team swimsuits, water polo suits, or sublimation swim team suits for kids doesn’t matter.

Having the correct size sublimation swimsuit is vital for ensuring a comfortable fit, flexibility, and maximum performance.

• Avoid bleach, harsh detergents, and fabric softeners when cleaning sublimation swimsuits
• Hang the swimsuits to dry out in direct sunlight
• Do not iron. Sublimation swimsuits fabrics do not shrink, so you don’t need to worry about this when washing.
