Brother, a pioneer in printer innovation, presents the cutting edge digital tshirt printer, "Brother GTX Pro," maintaining its top position in Thailand's Direct-to-garment (DTG) printer market. It perfectly caters to businesses involved in custom designed t-shirt printing, regardless of their scale. With the growing popularity of personalized t-shirts across various demographics, the market is continuously expanding, both locally and globally.

Mr. Pongphan Surawatcharoen, manager at Brother Thailand, states: "Currently, the Brother GTX Pro tshirt printer continues to dominate the DTG printer segment in Thailand, praised by both entrepreneurs and customers for its superior print quality. Not only does the GTX Pro deliver remarkable print quality, but it also proves cost effective, making it an excellent fit for on-demand and mass-customization production, aligning with contemporary business trends. In addition to the Brother GTX printer, we've witnessed a substantial increase in ink consumption over the past year, resulting in a 30% production capacity boost. We anticipate this growth trend to persist throughout 2023, given the consistent demand for custom designed t-shirts".

Mr. Pongphan further elaborates, "Business owners confident in their choice of the Brother GTX Pro printer can be categorized into 3 key groups. First, businesses dedicated to on-demand tshirt manufacturing, catering to customers who either design and sell patterns or place personal orders with custom designs. Second, businesses engaged in the end-to-end process, from pattern design and shirt production to direct customer sales. Third, renowned fashion and sportswear brands."

On the other hand, Mr. Kulsuk Kraisat, the manager of Siam Apparels Group Co.,Ltd., a company producing over 1.2 million t-shirts annually with the Brother GTX Pro digital tshirt printer, discusses their wholesale t-shirt business. He notes: "With more than 22 years of experience in fashion apparel manufacturing, we began as a screen printing tshirt factory, with a special focus on t-shirts, the best-selling category. We sell over 3,000 t-shirts daily, necessitating the printing of 3,000-4,000 shirts every day. In total, our annual production ranges from 1.2-1.5 million shirts. Our brand draws inspiration from cartoon characters and superheroes, leading us to collaborate with copyright holding companies, including DC, Disney Marvel, for innovative styles".

"Our primary business revolves around wholesale distribution, reaching entrepreneurs who distribute our products nationwide. Our stores, such as those in Baiyoke Tower II and the Platinum Fashion Mall, attract a diverse customer base, including both Thai and international buyers. Furthermore, our significant export operations, especially in children's clothing, demand rigorous compliance with safety standards. The Brother GTX Pro ink has undergone rigorous non-toxic testing, ensuring a hassle free export process," he adds.

Siam Apparels currently operates 7 units Brother GTX Pro printers throughout the year, producing approximately 300,000 items. Remarkably, they have encountered no software-related issues. Despite its exceptional capabilities, the Brother GTX Pro tshirt printer remains budget friendly and aptly suited for mass production, eliminating the need for minimum production quantities. This flexibility is a game changer for startups, allowing them to launch their businesses immediately without inventory concerns. This not only saves time and resources but also mitigates potential financial risks.

"The t-shirt industry stands as an enduring market with consistently growing demand. T-shirts have become a universal choice for all age groups, reflecting individuality and lifestyle. As more people embrace t-shirts, digital printing is not merely a choice; it's the paramount solution for the fabric printing industry" Mr. Kulsuk Kraisat concludes.
