Sublimation transfer paper solutions tailored to real production applications.

Different sublimation applications place different demands on transfer paper.
Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, MAXSUB helps users identify the most suitable sublimation paper category based on application-specific requirements.

This page guides you from application scenario to recommended sublimation paper series.

How Application Affects Sublimation Paper Selection

In sublimation printing, paper selection is influenced not only by ink and equipment, but also by application-related factors such as:

  • Fabric behavior during heat transfer
  • Printing speed and drying window
  • Alignment and positioning requirements
  • Output volume and production rhythm

Understanding your application is the first step toward selecting the right sublimation transfer paper.

Common Sublimation Applications

Apparel & Sportswear
