Why Ordering a Swatch Pack is Essential Before Custom Fabric Printing
If you’re planning to print your own fabrics, starting with a swatch pack is one of the smartest decisions you can make. At Jersey Print Factory, we specialize in high-quality reactive printing on cotton and organic fabrics — but like any custom production process, results can vary based on fabric type, design details, and color depth.
To ensure you know exactly what you’ll get, we highly recommend ordering our Swatch Pack before placing your full order.
What Is a Swatch Pack?
A Swatch Pack is a small set of fabric samples that shows how prints look on different base materials. It allows you to:
-
Feel the texture of each fabric
-
See how colors appear on various fabric types (like Jersey, French Terry, Canvas, etc.)
-
Check print sharpness on different surfaces
-
Compare natural, organic, or certified GOTS bases
👉 And the best part? It’s completely free — you only pay for shipping.

Why Print Results May Vary
Each fabric surface behaves differently during the reactive printing process. For example:
-
French Terry has a slightly fluffy surface, which may reduce the sharpness of fine design details.
-
Organic Jersey usually results in more vibrant colors and sharp lines.
-
Even with the same design, print outcomes can change depending on the base.
That’s why we strongly recommend testing your design on your chosen fabric before bulk production.
Why It Matters for Small Businesses and Designers
Our clients include small fashion brands, fabric retailers, and independent designers who often order low quantities. Since your production is made from scratch, it’s essential to see real samples beforehand.
By ordering the Swatch Pack and then going to our Print Your Own Fabrics page, you can move confidently from sample to production.
