A Comprehensive Guide to Growing Dye Sublimated Apparel Market

The global dye sublimated apparel market size is expected to reach USD 10.67 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 12.3% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing popularity of customized designers’ apparel with digital printing, slogans, ambition quotations, and photo works on clothes is among the major factor driving the growth of the industry. Furthermore, where apparel was previously worn for better comfort and product quality, clothes are now also considered a fashion accessory, where consumers have been looking for apparel to get unlimited design possibilities with full-color coverage with custom clothes, thereby driving the product demand.

Over the past few years, numerous companies have been offering products with advanced fabric technologies and enhanced features. These apparels are lightweight, versatile, and suitable for various work environments. For instance, Six Six Apparel, a U.S.-based company, provides a wide range of customized logo and design apparel with a permanent graphic imprint that does not crack or fade easily. In recent years, the dye sublimation printing technique has been increasingly adopted by many companies due to its high-quality photographic results. This technique utilizes thermal transfer to shift different amounts of colored dye pigments from a carrier film to the PVC printing surface, to which the dyes bond chemically.

Reduction in frictional resistance technology and improvements in the overcoat materials result in a reduction in the occurrence of wrinkles in clothes and ensure the breathability of clothes. Dye sublimated t-shirt segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2022. With the increased popularity of sports in countries, such as China, India, and Germany, due to investments by governments in sports-related activities, the product demand is anticipated to increase in the years to come. Furthermore, sports teams and clubs of almost all sports have started to design and wear custom-designed t-shirts and jerseys with their unique logos and designs.
