- DTG (Direct To Garment): direct inkjet printing on cotton and blends, with sharp details using water-based Pantone-compliant inks.
- Screen Printing: ideal for creating Pantone ink colours in plastisol applications.
These techniques fully utilise the Pantone palette to produce reliable, standardised textile outputs.
