Why Choose Hoodie and Sweatshirt Manufacturers in China

Skilled labor and modern machinery
Cost-effective large-scale production
Fast lead times and OEM/ODM customization
Wide material sourcing (fleece, French terry, organic cotton, recycled blends)
At YUDI-CLOTHING, we offer full-package solutions from fabric sourcing and design development to custom printing and private labeling—making us a trusted partner for both startups and established apparel brands.
Top Printing Methods for Hoodies and Sweatshirts
Different printing methods create different effects and suit different fabrics and designs. Here are the most common techniques used by leading Chinese manufacturers like us:
1. Screen Printing
Ideal for: Bold designs, large batches, long-lasting colors
This traditional technique presses ink through a mesh screen onto fabric. It’s cost-effective for bulk orders and perfect for logos or graphic-heavy designs.
2. Direct-to-Garment (DTG) Printing
Ideal for: Detailed images, small runs, multicolor artwork
DTG uses inkjet technology to print directly on fabric. It offers a soft hand feel and excellent detail reproduction, especially for photo-realistic or gradient-heavy designs.
3. Heat Transfer Printing
Ideal for: Small batches, promotional or seasonal items
Designs are printed on transfer paper and applied with heat press. It’s fast and flexible, and works well for vibrant, full-color prints on both cotton and synthetic blends.
4. Embroidery
Ideal for: Premium branding, logos, uniforms
Embroidery adds texture and durability by stitching thread into the garment. It elevates hoodies with a luxury touch and is often used for branding on chest or sleeve.
5. Sublimation Printing
Ideal for: All-over prints, polyester fabrics
Sublimation turns ink into gas and embeds it into the fabric. It’s best for full-coverage designs on light polyester hoodies and ensures color vibrancy and permanence.
6. Vinyl Printing
Ideal for: Names, numbers, small batch customization
Vinyl is cut and heat-pressed onto garments. It’s often used in sportswear or personalized orders due to its bold and crisp finish.
Choosing the Right Method for Your Brand
Selecting a printing method depends on:
Fabric type (cotton, polyester, blends)
Quantity and budget
Design complexity
Desired texture and appearance
