General sustainability statement

Sustainable fashion is the future! That’s why Pixla is taking steps to make sure we’re part of the movement. We only produce items we get an order for, avoiding textile waste from overproduction.

Single product social media promo

Did you know that each of our products is made just for you? We only print the product when we receive your order for it, avoiding textile waste. So forget about mass-produced clothing and buy your unique one-off from us!

Information about printing tech and materials

Our clothing is printed with the direct-to-garment (DTG) and sublimation printing method. The printing tech we use is made with sustainability in mind, and our DTG printers use almost zero wastewater and less energy, lowering our carbon footprint.

The inks we use for printing are water-based and free of harmful chemicals. We take care to dispose of any left-over ink according to the ink supplier guidelines, so we’re not harming the environment.

ProductION

How and where are your products made?

We work with reliable, high-quality print-on-demand drop shippers. They have locations worldwide, so depending on where you are, your orders are printed and shipped from the facility that can do it most efficiently! Usually our drop shipper will produce and ship the products from the facility closest to you, though the order may be rerouted if another facility is able to handle it faster.

Facilities worldwide

Our dropshippers are located all over the world. As of now they have facilities across six locations in North Carolina, California, Mexico, Spain, and Latvia. We also have several partners helping us in Australia and Japan.

Statement about production times

Each product you see in our catalog is made on-demand, which means once you place the order, we start working to get it to you. It takes time for us to create and send out the product, but making each order on-demand allows us to avoid overproduction. This way we’re all part of the sustainable fashion movement.

ProductS

The designs

Our product collections are selected favorites in comfortable and simple styles that we transform into statement pieces. Whether it’s a shirt, joggers, bomber jacket, sports bra, phone case, poster, or a throw pillow we will transform them into must-have statement items with bold graphical design.

Embroidery

We’re working with both flat and 3D embroidery. These techniques enable us to create high quality embroidery on a variety of selected products.

Printing techniques

What technology is used to print on t-shirts (and any fabric product)?
Our most common is the Direct to Garment (DTG) and All over print (sublimation) methods of printing. These techniques enable us to create photo-quality prints and there aren’t any order minimums.

DTG (direct-to-garment)
DTG is similar to using a printer to print on paper. It works like a printer and supports the most detailed photo-realistic design, with an unlimited amount of colors. The ink soaks into the fibers of the garment giving it a more natural and vintage look. We do not use screen printing which has a more plastic feeling and only allows a few colors.

DTG inks are eco-friendly, CPSIA-compliant, non-toxic, non-hazardous, and soluble in water. They’re free from heavy metals, formaldehyde, and Alkylphenol Ethoxylates (APE).

We use Kornit and Brother printers for all DTG printed garments.

All over print (sublimation print)
This printing method is also called dye sublimation. Graphics are printed on a special sheet of paper and then transferring that image onto fabric. Heating the ink until it disintegrates into the corresponding fabric. This technique makes the ink long-lasting, and you’ll never have the unfortunate “peeling” effect of a well-worn t-shirt.

What type of ink do you use?

We use genuine Brother GT-3, water-based pigment inks. GT-3 inks are CPSIA compliant and Oeko-Tex™ certified, which means they are safe to print on youth/children’s clothing and reduce environmental waste. Also, GT-3 inks provide a high washing colorfast AATCC rating of 4.

For posters, we use Epson UltraChrome water based HDR ink-jet technology.

Cut & sew

Several of our products are made from scratch when you place an order. When the graphics are printed onto the fabric, the shape of the garment is precision-cut and hand-sewn with industrial sewing machines. This ensures a consistent all-over print and durable construction.

Sublimation inks are biodegradable and CPSIA compliant.

Long-lasting quality

Our high quality products are thoroughly tested to ensure high quality. To make sure the products last long, our production partners do durability, wash, and wear tests.

Our partners ensure us:
– Eco-friendly product options
– Long-lasting quality
– Responsible production

We trust our partner’s and suppliers to deliver products that will last many washes, keeping the colors vibrant and elasticity good.

Our partners source products and fabrics from ethical brands and suppliers that comply with labor, environmental, and safety standards.
