Print Technology
DTG & DTFlex Printing
We use a hybrid approach — Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing for photographic detail
and fine gradients, combined with precision DTFlex printing for bold, high-opacity
graphics. This dual method delivers unmatched clarity, durability, and depth of colour
on heavyweight cotton — where lesser prints crack, fade, or pill after a few washes.

Eco Commitment
Water-Based Inks
Every Raven Creed print uses eco-friendly water-based inks — free of PVC, phthalates,
and heavy metals. These inks absorb directly into the cotton fibre rather than sitting
on top, creating a softer hand-feel and a print that breathes with the fabric.

Finish
Garment Character
Post-print, each piece undergoes enzyme washing and garment-level finishing.
This removes excess dye, softens the hand, and creates subtle tonal variation
that gives the piece an aged, considered quality from the first wear.
Quality Control
Three-Stage Inspection
Every garment passes through pre-print fabric inspection, post-print colour
accuracy verification, and final hand-and-fit check before it earns the
Raven Creed label. If it doesn't meet the standard, it doesn't ship.
