About Us

Two print methods. Done properly.

EmberInk.co specialises in apparel customisation and general branding for items like clothing, mugs and plates. We help individuals, businesses and organisations turn logos and creative concepts into products they're proud of.

We work strictly with DTF (Direct to Film) and vinyl printing — two methods, mastered, rather than a long list of services done halfway. That focus means consistent, detailed, vibrant results, whether it's a bold graphic for apparel or clean, sharp branding for everyday items.

When a project calls for embroidery, we bring in trusted local private embroiders to complete the job, so customers still get a full, professional finish without us stretching outside what we do best.
