Colour Chart

Our printing equipment is professionally profiled to produce bright, vibrant colours using our premium nine-colour DTF system. Use this chart as a colour reference when preparing your artwork.

Reading the chart

Each swatch has a reference code (for example C-24). When you contact us about a specific colour, quote the closest code so we can match it as accurately as possible. Colours are grouped by family - reds, oranges, yellows, greens, blues, purples, pinks, browns and neutrals - with pure black, white and a range of greys at the end.

Screen colours versus printed colours

We cannot guarantee an exact match between a colour shown on a screen and the final printed product. Colour appearance can vary because of monitor and phone settings, screen brightness, RGB-to-print conversion, artwork colour profiles, fabric colour and texture, lighting, printing materials and different production batches.

Fluorescent, neon, metallic and reflective effects cannot be reproduced exactly using standard DTF inks unless specifically agreed in advance.

Our nine-colour ink system

Our DTF process prints using nine ink channels for vibrant colours, smooth gradients and natural skin tones:

  • Cyan
  • Magenta
  • Yellow
  • Black
  • Red
  • Green
  • Blue
  • Orange
  • White

Need a specific colour?

If a particular colour is important, please contact us before placing the full order. We can provide a printed colour chart and a matching digital reference. Use the printed chart to select the closest available colour, then use the digital version to amend your artwork.

The printed colour chart should be treated as the most reliable reference, because a digital chart will still display differently across different screens. If exact colour is commercially important, we recommend ordering a test print before committing to a large order.
