MINKY Plush Fabric with Sublimation Print — Production and Personalisation

Plush fabric with sublimation print is a soft, decorative MINKY-type polyester knitted fabric designed for the production of baby blankets, cushions, soft toys, pet beds, children’s textiles, home decor products and functional accessories that require a pleasant-to-touch surface. The material combines a comfortable hand feel, a soft plush effect and the option of creating a custom sublimation print.

The fabric has a weight of 280 g/m², a roll width of 155 cm and a roll length of approximately 50 m. The longer pile gives it a soft, fluffy and decorative character, while the polyester base allows for direct or transfer sublimation printing. This makes the fabric a good choice for projects where both appearance and user comfort are important.

Plush fabric with sublimation print is a good solution for home decor brands, manufacturers of children’s textiles, handmade studios, sewing workshops, the pet industry, online stores and companies creating personalised products under their own brand.

Thanks to personalisation, the fabric can be adapted to a specific collection, store, home decor brand, children’s project, advertising campaign, pet product or individual order.

Printing any artwork

We can print any customer-supplied artwork on Plush fabric. This may include an illustration, children’s pattern, decorative motif, seasonal graphic, logo, dedication, photo, gift design, pet product design or full-surface artwork prepared for a specific product.

The possibility of printing means that the fabric can serve several functions at the same time:

• a base for children’s products,
• an element of a home decor collection,

Material — MINKY plush knitted fabric

Plush fabric is a polyester MINKY-type knitted fabric with a longer pile. Its surface is soft, pleasant to the touch and visually resembles delicate faux fur. This makes the material suitable for products that are intended to be comfortable, decorative and visually appealing.

Key material features:

• material type: polyester,
• fabric type: MINKY plush knitted fabric,
• material base: Vesline Subli Plush 280,
• weight: 280 g/m²,
• roll width: 155 cm,
• roll length: approximately 50 m,
• longer pile,
• soft surface,
• comfortable hand feel,
• decorative appearance,
• PVC Free property,
• suitable for direct and transfer sublimation printing.

Thanks to these parameters, the material combines practical functionality with a soft, decorative finish.

Soft surface and user comfort

One of the most important features of Plush fabric is its soft, pleasant-to-touch surface. The longer pile gives finished products a fluffier, more comfortable and decorative character.

Key functional advantages:

• very soft hand feel,
• pleasant surface,
• comfort in everyday use,
• decorative visual effect,
• good drape in the finished product,
• suitable base for children’s textiles,
• suitable base for pet products,
• pleasant contact with the body.

This material is recommended for projects where the product should be soft, attractive and comfortable — for example baby blankets, cushions, soft toys, pet beds or throws.

Weight 280 g/m²

The 280 g/m² weight provides a good balance between softness, durability and stable performance. The fabric has a fuller feel than lightweight decorative fabrics, while still remaining pleasant, versatile in use and convenient for further production.

Fabric of this weight works well in products such as:

• baby blankets,
• throws,
• cushions,
• cushion covers,
• soft toys,
• pet beds,
• pet mattresses,
• covers,
• bathrobes,
• pet clothing,
• textile decorations,
• personalised products.

It is a good choice for projects where the material should be soft, durable and aesthetically finished.

PVC Free

Plush fabric has a PVC Free property, which means the material does not contain PVC. This is especially important for children’s products, home textiles, pet accessories and projects where comfort and user safety are important.

The PVC Free feature may be important in the production of:

• baby blankets,
• soft toys,
• soft accessories for children,
• pet beds,
• home textiles,
• gift products,
• personalised collections.

Thanks to this, the material can be used in a wider range of functional and decorative projects.

Applications of Plush fabric with print

Plush fabric with sublimation print has a wide range of applications in the production of decorative, children’s, functional, pet and personalised textiles.

Example applications:

• printed baby blankets,
• decorative throws,
• cushions,
• cushion covers,
• soft toys,
• children’s textiles,
• soft accessories for children,

• covers,
• bathrobes,

Who is Plush fabric with print for?

Plush fabric with sublimation print is suitable, among others, for:

• home decor brands,
• manufacturers of blankets and throws,
• cushion manufacturers,
• soft toy manufacturers,
• manufacturers of children’s textiles,
• the pet industry,
• pet bed manufacturers,

• advertising agencies,
• companies creating private label products.

It is a good solution for projects where softness, a decorative effect, durable printing and full graphic personalisation are important.

Direct and transfer sublimation printing

Plush fabric is compatible with both direct and transfer sublimation printing. This makes it possible to match the technology to the type of artwork, the nature of the project, the print area and the expected final result.

Key advantages of sublimation printing:

• the possibility of producing full-colour graphics,
• vibrant colours,
• the possibility of printing illustrations, photos, dedications and decorative patterns,
• the possibility of printing repeat patterns,
• the possibility of full-surface printing,
• durable graphic reproduction,
• no thick print layer on the surface of the material,
• an attractive effect on the soft, plush structure.

The final print result depends on the quality of the supplied artwork, colour scheme, printing technology and the properties of the plush surface.

Product personalisation

Plush fabric works very well in personalised products. The soft surface, longer pile and the possibility of creating a custom print make it possible to produce items with a distinctive, unique character.

Possible forms of personalisation:

• name printing,
• dedication printing,
• photo printing,
• logo printing,
• seasonal graphic printing,
• children’s pattern printing,
• animal motif printing,
• gift pattern printing,
• collection pattern printing,
• full-surface printing.

This is particularly useful for personalised baby blankets, soft toys, printed cushions, pet beds, gift products and occasion-based textiles.

Quality and repeatability

In the production of printed textiles, repeatability of colours, patterns and functional parameters is important. This is especially relevant for home decor collections, children’s products, pet products, gift ranges and larger production orders.

Possible production control and arrangement elements:

• selection of printing technology,
• sample preparation,
• proof preparation,
• adjusting the artwork to the fabric width,
• colour repeatability,
• adjusting the print to the cutting pattern,
• preparing the product specification,
• short-run and larger series production.

For demanding projects, we recommend producing a sample to check the colours, detail sharpness, softness, pile behaviour and final print effect.

Logistics and B2B cooperation

Plush fabric with print can be used for individual projects, short runs and larger production orders. Cooperation is possible with home decor brands, manufacturers of children’s textiles, pet industry companies, online stores, sewing workshops and brands creating products under their own label.

Cooperation options include:

• prototypes,
• short runs,
• seasonal collections,
• personalised products,
• children’s textiles,
• pet textiles,
• larger orders,
• ongoing cooperation,
• support with file preparation,
• advice on selecting the printing technology,
• private label production.

It is a practical solution for companies that want to introduce soft textiles with custom printing and repeatable quality.

How to prepare artwork for printing?

The graphic design should be prepared in good quality so that the print looks attractive on the soft, plush surface of the fabric. For baby blankets, cushions, soft toys, pet beds and decorative textiles, it is worth considering the pattern scale, pile direction and fabric cutting method.

When preparing the artwork, it is worth considering:

• fabric width: 155 cm,
• pattern scale,
• graphic repeatability,
• placement of elements on the cutting pattern,
• readability of fine details,
• project colour scheme,
• intended use of the finished product,
• direction of the artwork layout,
• the possibility of producing a sample,
• maintaining appropriate graphic file quality.

The better the project is prepared, the better and more predictable the final print result will be.
