A fleece blanket is more than something to keep close while relaxing on the sofa. At Blanketparadise, the design is just as important as the comfort of the blanket. From colorful artwork and playful patterns to bold statement designs, every blanket is made to bring personality into your home.

But what exactly are our fleece blankets made from? How is the artwork printed onto the fabric? And what is sublimation printing?

In this article, we take a closer look at our fleece blankets, their main characteristics, and the printing process that turns a digital design into a finished blanket.

What Are Our Fleece Blankets Made From?

Our fleece blankets are made from 100% polyester. This material creates a smooth, soft surface that feels comfortable against the skin while remaining lightweight and practical for everyday use.

The fabric has a soft silk touch finish. This gives the printed side of the blanket a smooth feel and provides a suitable surface for detailed, colorful designs.

Each blanket measures approximately 127 × 153 cm, or 50 × 60 inches. This makes it a practical throw blanket for using on a sofa, adding to a bed, keeping nearby in a reading corner, or simply wrapping around yourself while relaxing at home.

These are lightweight fleece blankets rather than extra-thick or heavy blankets. Their relatively light construction makes them easy to use, fold and store.

Designed to Bring Artwork Into Your Home

What really makes our fleece blankets stand out is the printed artwork.

A blanket takes up a surprisingly large visual area, which makes it an interesting way to introduce a new theme, color palette or style into a room. Instead of being only a practical home accessory, a printed fleece blanket can become part of the room itself.

Depending on the design, a blanket can add humor to a sofa, create a particular atmosphere in a bedroom, complement a hobby-themed space or simply introduce more color to an interior.

Our collection includes many different styles and themes, making it possible to choose a design that matches your interests, personality or home decor.

When the blanket is not being used, it can be folded over the back of a sofa or placed on a bed so that the printed artwork remains visible.

How Are Our Fleece Blankets Printed?

The designs on our fleece blankets are created using a process called sublimation printing.

Sublimation is especially well suited to polyester fabrics and is commonly used when detailed, colorful artwork needs to be transferred onto a textile surface.

Unlike some printing techniques that simply place a layer of ink on top of the material, sublimation uses heat to transfer the design into the polyester fibers.

This process helps create a smooth printed result without adding a heavy printed layer on top of the fleece.

How Does Sublimation Printing Work?

The sublimation process starts with the digital artwork. The design is prepared for printing and transferred using special sublimation inks.

Heat is then used during the transfer process. Under the right temperature and pressure, the sublimation ink changes from a solid state into a gas without first becoming a liquid. This is where the term sublimation comes from.

The gaseous dye penetrates the polyester material. As the fabric cools, the dye becomes part of the polyester fibers, leaving the design transferred onto the surface.

In simple terms, the process can be described as:

Digital design → sublimation ink → heat and pressure → dye enters the polyester fibers → finished printed blanket

This makes sublimation particularly useful for designs containing multiple colors, gradients, patterns and small visual details.

Why Polyester and Sublimation Work Well Together

The fact that our blankets are made from 100% polyester is important to the printing process.

Sublimation dyes are designed to bond with polyester when exposed to heat. This relationship between the fabric and printing method makes it possible to reproduce detailed artwork while maintaining the soft character of the material.

Because the design becomes part of the polyester fibers rather than forming a thick layer over the surface, the blanket retains its smooth silk touch feel.

For a product where the artwork is such an important feature, this printing method is a natural fit.

Is the Design Printed on Both Sides?

No. Our fleece blankets are printed on one side.

The front displays the selected artwork in full color, while the reverse side of the blanket is white. This construction keeps the focus on the artwork on the printed side and gives every blanket a simple, neutral reverse.

When choosing one of our blankets, it is therefore important to remember that the artwork does not continue onto the back.

How Big Are the Fleece Blankets?

Our fleece blankets measure approximately 127 × 153 cm, which is equivalent to 50 × 60 inches.

This is a versatile throw blanket size. It works well for relaxing on the sofa, adding an extra layer to a bed or keeping a comfortable blanket within reach in your favorite place at home.

The blankets are intentionally lightweight. They should not be confused with extra-thick, heavyweight or oversized fleece blankets.

Are the Fleece Blankets Machine-Washable?

Yes. Our fleece blankets are machine-washable, making them practical for regular use at home.

Polyester is a convenient material for products that are used frequently, and being able to machine wash the blanket makes everyday care much easier.

Always follow the care instructions supplied with the product to help keep both the fabric and printed design looking their best.

More Features of Our Fleece Blankets

In addition to the printed design and silk touch surface, our fleece blankets have several practical characteristics.

They are made from 100% polyester, are hypoallergenic and flame retardant. Every blanket features one-sided printing with a white reverse side.

The combination of lightweight fleece, a smooth surface and colorful sublimation printing makes these blankets suitable for both practical use and decorative purposes.

A Blanket Can Be Part of Your Interior

Home accessories do not always have to be neutral.

A printed fleece blanket gives you an easy way to bring your interests into your living space. A colorful design can create contrast in a simple room, while artwork based around a specific theme can help give a bedroom, gaming room, living room or hobby space more personality.

You can also change blankets depending on the season, mood or style you want to create without having to make permanent changes to the room.

And because the design covers such a large part of the blanket, the artwork remains one of the first things you notice.

Made Especially for Each Order

Our fleece blankets are made on demand. This means a blanket is produced after an order has been placed instead of producing large quantities of every design in advance.

The selected artwork is printed onto the blanket using the sublimation process before the finished product is prepared for delivery.

Making products on demand can take a little longer than taking a pre-produced product directly from a warehouse shelf, but it helps reduce unnecessary overproduction.
