🔥 THINGS ARE HOTTING UP AT GECKO… 🦎

New signage is up in our Trade Garment Decorating Room — and even the signage itself is a little preview of what’s coming.

Manufactured completely in-house from laser-cut flat acrylic, this is just ONE of the new products we’ll soon be offering to our trade customers.

👉 Resell it to your customers.
👉 Brand your own business with it.
👉 Let Gecko manufacture it.

And behind the scenes, things are moving FAST. 👀

We’re now prepping the Gecko Lab print room ready for the imminent arrival of some serious new kit:

🧪 Flatbed UV Printer
✂️ Flatbed Cutter
⚡ High-speed Roll-Fed UVDTF Printer

And what does all this mean?

A ridiculous amount of new trade products. 😂🔥

TPU clothing patches.
Laser-cut acrylics.
Branded clothing tags.
Special-effect stickers.
UVDTF transfers.
Direct-to-product UV printing.
Signage.
Packaging and branding products.

…and that’s only scratching the surface.

The idea is simple: give clothing brands, garment decorators, printers and other businesses access to more products they can sell — without having to invest in all the machinery themselves.

You sell it. We manufacture it. 🦎

The next few months at Gecko are going to be a little bit crazy…

Built for Brands. Built for Trade. Built at Gecko.

🔥 CLOTHING BRANDS — THIS IS WHAT OUR TRADE DTF PRINT & PRESS SERVICE IS ALL ABOUT.

Duz Denim have been a long-standing Gecko customer, using our Trade DTF Print & Press service to bring their clothing ranges to life.

But we can offer much more than simply pressing a transfer onto a tee.

For their latest range, we worked with them to take their ideas and original drawings, edit and perfect the artwork, prepare everything correctly for DTF and then handle the printing and pressing of the finished garments.

✏️ Artwork support & preparation
🎨 DTF-ready file optimisation
🔥 High-quality DTF printing
👕 Professional garment pressing
📦 Finished merch ready for your brand

Our Trade Print & Press service is designed for clothing brands, artists, events and businesses that want to sell merch without having to invest in printers, heat presses or production equipment themselves.

You concentrate on your brand.
We concentrate on making your merch look 🔥.

Already have a clothing brand? Or got an idea for one?

🎥 FROM AN IDEA… TO A FINISHED TEE 🔥

One of our long-standing customers, Duz Denim, recently came down to Gecko to give you a proper behind-the-scenes look at how we work.

Duz Denim are a retail clothing brand we’ve worked with for years, supplying our Trade DTF Print & Press service — but there’s a lot that happens before a design ever reaches the press.

In their latest video, they follow the process of creating the artwork for their new range of tees.

✏️ Starting with ideas and drawings
💻 Bringing those ideas into the computer
🎨 Editing, cleaning up and perfecting the artwork
🔍 Preparing everything properly for DTF
🔥 Printing and pressing the finished designs

This is where our 25+ years of print, artwork and colour experience really comes into play.

We don’t just want to print what you send us. When needed, we can work with you to help turn an idea, sketch or rough piece of artwork into something that’s actually going to work and look great on a garment.

If you own a clothing brand, run a merch business or you’re thinking about starting one, this video gives you a great look at what can happen behind the scenes before the finished tee lands in your hands.

Massive thanks to the guys at Duz Denim for coming down and showing the process. 👊

Ever wondered what happens after the artwork is finished?In this ...

30/07/2026

Shadows? Gradients? Fine detail?
“DTF can’t do that…” 👀

We hear it all the time.

This incredible design by Matt Thompson proves otherwise. From the smooth shading and subtle gradients to the crisp linework and rich colours, this print is exactly why we obsess over artwork preparation, colour management and print settings.

Not all DTF is created equal. When it’s done right, you can achieve results that make people look twice. 🔥

Matt will be selling these tees at an upcoming tattoo convention, so if you’re heading there, make sure you grab one before they’re gone!

And if you’ve been told your artwork won’t print because it has shadows, fades or complex details…

Get in touch with us first. 😉

We’ll work with you to refine your artwork and show you just what DTF is really capable of.

👀 IT’S STARTING TO COME TOGETHER…

Following on from our showroom revamp, the new grid wall is up and we’ve started filling it with some of the incredible artist artwork available through Wrong Crowd Merch.

We’ve moved the signage around, changed the layout and started turning the space into somewhere you can actually come in, see our DTF on finished garments and get a proper feel for the quality we’re producing.

These aren’t even the final display pieces yet. 😁

We’re still waiting on more bits to arrive so we can showcase hats, prints, patches and plenty more.

But the showroom isn’t the only thing changing at Gecko… 👀

We’ve got some seriously exciting new kit incoming, including:

⚡ A VERY fast new UV DTF machine

🔥 A new flatbed UV printer capable of special-effect varnishes and 3D layered printing, allowing us to print directly onto a HUGE range of products. We’ve got some big plans for this one… more soon. 😉

🧵 A soft-ink UV printer for producing TPU clothing patches

✂️ A CO₂ laser cutter

🔪 A CAD cutter

And there might just be one more machine we’re keeping quiet about for now… 😁😉

This is all about pushing what we can offer, bringing more production in-house and giving our customers access to more products, more finishes and more ways to make their brands stand out.

The showroom is changing.

The production floor is changing.

And Gecko is levelling up. 🦎

Keep watching. There’s a LOT more to come.

EXCITING TIMES AHEAD. 🚀

🚧 SHOWROOM REVAMP INCOMING…

We’re giving our showroom a serious upgrade — and this time, we’re putting the print quality front and centre.

The walls will be filled with finished garments from our very own Wrong Crowd wrongcrowdmerch, showcasing exactly what can be achieved when great artwork meets DTF done right.

Because we don’t just want to tell you our DTF is good.

We want you to see it. Feel it. Stretch it. Inspect it.

And the best part?

👉 You can achieve this same quality with your own brand.

Buy your DTF from Gecko and work with us to refine your artwork for print — from colour knockouts and halftones to getting those small details, fades and finishes working properly on a garment.

We’ll help you get more from your artwork and more from your DTF.

👀 Keep your eyes peeled for the finished showroom…

We can’t wait to show you what we’re building.

GECKO DTF — DTF DONE RIGHT. 🦎

23/02/2026

So after a month of graft on our new premises we are finally on moving day. Sorry for today’s disruptive service but we fingers crossed 🤞 should be back operational tomorrow morning. We also will be firing up our new additional DTF printer which will ensure we always have a backup and allow us turn big jobs around even quicker than before.

Watch this space as Gecko enters this new exciting phase of our business!

We can’t wait to share what’s in store.
