A lot of the modern merchandise that you will see in use today is screen printed. This includes branded t-shirts from major retailers, promotional wear, corporate wear and more. It is used where more than 20 items are required (other methods are more suited for low quantity orders) and on runs of up to thousands of items. This print method is durable and can produce large designs with many colours, making it especially suitable for large t-shirt designs. Compared to embroidery, it is more suited for detailed or larger designs, or where a more modern look is required. Screen Printing is a professional application method using expert printing techniques. It is a durable application method that won’t fade in the wash. Screen Printing has preparation costs, but lower “per item” costs than transfers or direct-to-garment methods. This makes it more suitable for orders with at least 20 items. Screen Printing costs increase with the number of colours in the design. Screen Printing can use ultra violet inks for extravagant designs or safety applications. For best results and accurate print always supply with vector artwork, set with the correct pantone references.
