Garment Graphics: Direct-to-Garment Printing Industry Eyes a $1.82 Billion Growth

What Is DTG Printing? When To Choose DTG vs. Screen Printing

Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing is a modern digital printing technique that allows for the direct application of full-color, high-resolution designs or images onto garments, textiles, and fabrics. It has gained popularity for its ability to produce detailed and vibrant prints on a variety of fabrics.

With a notable compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.3% expected between 2022 and 2032, the global direct-to-garment printing market is set to witness remarkable expansion, surging from a valuation of US$ 822.1 million in 2022 to an impressive US$ 1,820.1 million.

The growing prominence of digital printing within the apparel industry is poised to become a pivotal driver behind the expansion of the direct-to-garment printing market. Additionally, the contemporary consumer preference for vibrant and unconventional clothing choices is expected to provide significant impetus to the direct-to-garment printing industry, propelling it to new heights.

Direct-to-garment (DTG) printing is witnessing a surge in demand due to its unique ability to print on garments that present challenges for other printing techniques. It offers the added advantage of being able to swiftly reproduce intricate images, regardless of their complexity. However, the anticipated growth of the direct to garment printing market may face a decelerated pace due to a shortage of skilled and qualified operators.
