In a method of applying a decorative design of dyestuffs suitable for sublimation on to a substrate (10), provision is made for placing a dye carrier (12) on the substrate (10) and transferring the dye to the substrate by infrared heating of the carrier (10). The carrier is heated to temperatures below 170 DEG C., depending on the plastics of the substrate, and the carrier is pressed by its entire surface area against the substrate by means of electrostatic charging and vacuum. The side of the substrate (10) to which the decorative design is applied is heated less than the opposite side of the substrate.
