Which finishing technique suits Hamburg projects?
Hamburg's economy is dominated by the port industry, shipping, logistics, a strong advertising and media landscape and maritime tourism. These sectors bring typical finishing requirements:
- Embroidery — premium, durable, salt-water resistant. First choice for polos in shipping companies, port agencies and maritime brands. Hanseatic look with a premium feel.
- Screen printing — vivid colours for event shirts, Hamburg Marathon crew apparel and club jerseys from 50 pieces.
- DTF printing — vivid even on performance fabrics and maritime materials. Popular with sailing clubs and outdoor crews.
- Digital printing (DTG) — photo quality for advertising-agency orders with complex brand motifs, from one piece.
