Bottle Bags/Carrier
Sublimation wine bottle carriers are a popular item for customization and personalization. These carriers are typically made of polyester material, which is suitable for sublimation printing. Sublimation printing is a process where the ink is transferred onto the material using heat and pressure, which results in a high-quality, durable print that won't fade or peel.
To create a sublimation wine bottle carrier, you will need the following materials and equipment:
Materials:
- Sublimation wine bottle carrier
- Sublimation paper
- Sublimation ink
- Heat-resistant tape
Equipment:
- Sublimation printer
- Heat press
- Heat-resistant gloves
Here are the steps to sublimate a wine bottle carrier:
-
Design your image using a graphics software program, such as Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. Make sure your image is sized to fit the carrier.
-
Print your image onto sublimation paper using a sublimation printer. Be sure to mirror your image before printing.
-
Preheat your heat press to 400°F.
-
Place your wine bottle carrier onto the heat press, with the side you want to print facing up.
-
Place your sublimation paper face down onto the carrier, making sure it's centered and straight. Use heat-resistant tape to secure the paper in place.
-
Use the heat press to press the carrier and sublimation paper together for 45-60 seconds, with firm pressure.
-
Once the time is up, carefully remove the carrier from the heat press using heat-resistant gloves.
-
Peel the sublimation paper off the carrier, starting at one corner and pulling slowly.
-
Your sublimation wine bottle carrier is now complete! Allow it to cool before handling.
Note: Time and temperature may vary depending on your equipment.
