Production
Garment production is a process that blends creativity with technical precision to transform ideas into finished products ready for use. This process typically includes the following key stages:
Material Selection
Choosing the right fabrics โ such as cotton, linen, polyester, or blends โ based on the desired properties.
Design
The design team creates patterns, selects colors, and specifies details. Prototypes (samples) are often made to test both aesthetics and comfort.
Cutting & Sewing
Fabrics are cut precisely according to the patterns, then assembled using skilled craftsmanship and high-quality machinery.
Quality Control
Every garment is inspected for stitching quality, size accuracy, color consistency, and overall finish to ensure uniform standards.
Packaging & Shipping
Garments are folded and packed appropriately, then shipped to warehouses, retail stores, or directly to customers.
Understanding Printing and Embroidery: How DTF, DTG, and Embroidery Differ
In the garment and textile industry, there are several techniques for adding designs, each with its own strengths and limitations. This article introduces three popular methods โ DTF (Direct to Film), DTG (Direct to Garment), and Embroidery โ to help you choose the approach that best fits your needs.
-
Embroidery
What it is
Using a machine or hand-stitching to create designs with thread directly on fabric, producing a premium, textured finish.
- Extremely durable โ wonโt peel or fade- Adds dimension and a luxurious look
- Strong and high-quality appearance
-
DTG (Direct to Garment Printing)
What it is
A technique that uses special inks to print directly onto fabric, similar to an inkjet printer, resulting in high resolution and a soft hand feel.
- High-definition images with smooth color gradients- Soft fabric feel because the ink soaks into the fibers
