Direct UV product ideas

Use a flatbed for products that fit its printable area and object clearance.

  • Phone cases and electronics accessories
  • Acrylic signs and QR displays
  • Golf balls and awards
  • Coasters, tiles and photo blocks
  • Packaging prototypes and branded panels
  • Keyrings, plaques and desk accessories

UV-DTF product ideas

Use transfers for smooth rigid surfaces that are curved, irregular or inconvenient to load.

  • Glass cans and bottles
  • Candle and cosmetic jars
  • Tumblers and hard drinkware
  • Storage containers
  • Event favours
  • Short-run branded packaging

Approve every blank

Clean, apply, scratch, wash, photograph, pack and ship samples from the exact blank supply you plan to sell. Do not promise dishwasher, outdoor, food-contact or child-safe performance without product-specific evidence.

Launch a narrow collection

Start with five to ten products for one customer or occasion. Reuse artwork sizes and production steps, record labour and waste, then expand only after the first collection is profitable and repeatable.
