A print shop that leads with what it cannot do

Sublimé is the dye-sublimation printing business of TRENDS SEASON SARL, a French company registered in Poitiers and trading under the name HOLOGRAM CLOTHING ET SUBLI LUXE. We print your artwork into polyester. We do not design garments and we do not hold printed stock.

What we actually sell

Two things. A polyester blank — 38 of them, from a bandana to a two-metre banner — and the service of pressing your artwork into it. They are priced separately because the printing is the part you are actually buying, and pretending otherwise makes it impossible to compare anything.

Dye-sublimation is a specific process with specific properties. Under heat, disperse dye turns straight from solid to gas, enters the polymer of a polyester fibre and bonds inside it. There is no layer on the surface, so there is nothing to crack, nothing to peel, and no change to the hand of the cloth. It is the reason cycling kit and race numbers are printed this way and not another.

It also cannot print cotton, cannot print pale artwork on a dark garment, whitens along seams, and reaches a narrower set of colours than your screen shows. Those four facts decide whether a customer is happy, so they are the second thing on this website rather than the last.

Who buys from us

Clubs and societies ordering kit. Race and event organisers. Small brands making a run of merchandise. Companies doing something for a team. The cosplay and maker communities, who are very welcome here so long as the artwork is original — French copyright law has no broad fair-use exception, and we explain that properly rather than discovering it at the review stage.

Three of our four print specifications have a minimum of one piece, so a single item is a perfectly normal order. The fourth, panel-cut, needs twelve because the garment is cut and sewn after printing.

The editorial rule

One rule governs every page: no claim we cannot evidence. There is a list of sentences that will never appear here — perfect colour matching, prints that never fade, artwork that always works, fabrics that always take it — and a check that fails our build if any of them ever creeps into the code.

The same rule is why there is no wall of five-star reviews. We have not been trading long enough under this brand to have collected verified ones, and publishing invented reviews is both unlawful in France and exactly the behaviour this shop exists to avoid. When there are real ones, they will appear, with the collection method stated. Until then you get the photographs, the wash test and a measurement of your own file.
