LEARN MORE ABOUT SCREEN PRINTING

Screen Printing is a fast and cost efficient way to produce large volumes of durable, high quality prints on garments like t-shrits, hoodies, and tote bags.

What is screen printing?

Screen printing is used to make graphic t-shirts and decorated apparel. It is a printing technique that is done through the process of pulling a layer of ink across a mesh screen to produce a design. In this process, the ink bonds to the garment, which results in a clear, vibrant, and durable image. Screen printing designs will last years without fading or cracking.

What are the benefits of screen printing?

Durability, quality, cost efficiency, and quick turn around times.

Is screen printing cost efficient? Where does the cost come from?

Screen printing is extremely cost efficient, especially with large orders. Price is dependent on quantity of inks, print locations, and garments.

What types of effects can screen printing produce?

creen printing can do it all - standard, distressed, or specialty inks for unique designs.

Why choose screen printing over direct-to-garment (DTG)?

A screen printed design on a t-shirt will last much longer than any other printing method and the quality of the image will be much higher, more vibrant and clear. DTG sits on top of the fabric and screen printing binds to the fibers.

Distressed or Vintage Looks

This can be achieved in a variety of ways such as: distressing the artwork digitally or by hand, using based down inks, or only printing once on a dark shirt with no under base.

Discharge Printing

Discharge printing is a way to remove the shirt's color and replace it, instead of putting ink on top of the shirt. The result? Super soft prints that are part of the shirt.
