But first, what exactly is a blank?



A blank garment refers to a clothing item that is produced and sold without any decoration or printing on it. It is essentially a plain, unadorned piece of clothing, typically made from various fabrics such as cotton, polyester, or blends. Blank garments serve as a canvas for customization, allowing individuals or businesses to add their own designs, logos, or artwork through methods like screen printing, embroidery or digital priting.



Types of Blanks Available: Hoodies, T-shirts, Sweatshirts and More



The most common types of products produced as blanks are those that can be easily customized or personalized for various purposes. These blank products serve as a blank canvas for adding designs, logos, or artwork through methods like screen printing, embroidery, or digital printing. Here are some of the most common blank products:

  • T-shirts
  • Tank tops
  • Polo shirts
  • Hoodies
  • Sweatshirts
  • Sweatpants


How the Ordering Process Works: From Design to Delivery



Once you've chosen on the clothes blanks you want, the process of having them made and shipped is simple.

We aim to make the experience as smooth as possible.


1.   Select Your Fabric

The first step is choosing your fabric. There are many options of high-quality cotton, polyester, and cotton-poly blends in a range of weights and colours. 

2.   Provide Your Design

Next, you’ll need to provide the design you want printed on the clothing. If you want, our design team can assist you in the development of your design.

3.   Choose Your Printing Technique

Explore our printing options, such as screen printing, embroidery, or digital printing to find the ideal method for your design.

4.   Place Your Order and Sampling

Once you’ve approved the designs and selected your printing method, we will make a sample. Samples are the beginning of the production process. The samples produced by our partners are used for testing the fit, quality and pricing of every project. This process is essential because it reduces production errors and risks, resulting in long-term cost savings.

5.   Production

Once the sample is approved and all modifications are made, the production process moves forward. It involves scaling up the production to manufacture the desired quantity of customized products, using the approved sample as a reference.

6.   Quality Control and Delivery

Before shipping your order, Nítido conducts a final round of stringent quality control checks to guarantee you receive a premium product. They use reputable carriers to ship orders internationally.
