Golf equipment branding evolves with digital decoration technology; UV printers enable vibrant customization of towels, accessories for tournaments, entertainment centers

November 4, 2024 (press release) –

FORE! Get ready for an information-packed update. Golfers traditionally use the word “FORE” to warn others about an incoming ball, but today, consider this your heads-up that a content-rich blog post is to follow. 

While the origin of the term “fore” remains a topic of debate, there’s no denying that digital decoration offers an exceptional solution for enhancing a wide range of golf equipment. 

It’s worth noting that golf itself has a rich history dating back to the 15th century when it was first played in Scotland. From those early origins on the rugged links of Scotland, the sport has evolved into a global phenomenon with a rich tradition of competition and camaraderie. 

Branded golf equipment is key for the sport. From tournaments to scaled entertainment centers, offering golf accessories that players can use for years to come is hugely beneficial.  

Golf Towels  

We have an exciting application to introduce! Golf towels are a staple for every dedicated golfer, serving as the perfect tool for cleaning clubs, balls, grips, and even the occasional brow wipe. Maintaining clean clubs can significantly enhance the spin and accuracy of your putts. 

Golf towels are classic tournament giveaways, ideal for branding with the hosting golf course or sponsor. You can print both single and full-color images on these absorbent towels. With microfiber golf towels as low as a few dollars this makes for an incredibly cost-effective way to brand.  

As the popularity of innovative golf experiences like Popstroke continues to grow, offering a unique blend of mini golf on smaller greens and golf instruction, these could serve as fantastic promotional giveaways or branded merchandise near the sales counter. Such swag for new events has demonstrated its potential as a lucrative source of passive revenue for these emerging and exciting experiences. 

The XJET Switch, direct-to-bag UV digital printer can easily and vibrantly decorate golf towels. With proper custom tooling, the operator is able to load two or more golf towels in the front while two are digitally printed and cured in the back of the machine. Thanks to XFLEXX UV digital ink, this flexible ink is perfect for digitally decorating flexible items without cracking or distorting the image. Print, pack and ship immediately with UV digital printing on golf towels. 

Golf towels digitally decorated with the XJET Switch have exceeded the industry expectation of 20 washes.

Golf Balls 

Brand or customize a bed full of golf balls all at once with a UV flatbed printer such as the X5®. This high-performance flatbed printer can decorate a full 43.3” x 24” area in under two minutes. In the past we have printed as many as 231 golf balls in a single print cycle. 

Golf balls’ curved surface limits the maximum image size for decoration, but the high-quality full-color print compensates for this limitation. 

The X5® UV printer will decorate products ranging from face masks to padfolios to notebooks. Perfect for promotional and industrial items, the X5® can handle near-constant use. Featuring a vacuum table, the X5® ensures a precise degree of parallelism to the imaging heads.
