Wednesday, March 01, 2023 : Cleveland, Ohio - The Millcraft Paper Company announced today the re-launch of its Direct-to-Garment (DTG) specialty sales unit as a broader-based Millcraft Apparel Solutions business segment.
The rebrand coincides with rapidly evolving technologies in the apparel printing marketplace and the growing consumer demand for advanced equipment and services. Millcraft’s Apparel Solutions now envelops DTG, Direct-to-Film (DTF), and a multitude of capacities within the apparel decorating space.
In conjunction with the rebrand, Millcraft is proud to announce a new partnership with industry-leading Epson® to offer its full line of industrial apparel and décor printers for fast speeds, sharp vibrant images, and quick ROI for small businesses to large companies.

In addition to apparel decorating, Millcraft’s expanded core product lines now include retail and beverage packaging; wide format equipment and supplies; graphics and specialty media; office, shipping and mailing supplies; and facilities solutions.
