Why screen printing?
The durability and low-cost of screen printing makes it is the most popular method of decorating a t-shirt in the world. Though the machines have improved, making higher quality prints faster, the basic printing process remains the same.
What is screen printing?
In screen printing, also known as silk screening, a screen and stencil transfer a design onto a t-shirt. The stencil on the screen allows ink to pass through specific areas and imprint the logo onto the t-shirt or other item. Similar to what you may have done in high school but much faster.

Screen Printing V.S. Embroidery
The two most popular methods for decorating merchandise are screen printing and embroidery. Embroidered clothing can add an upscale look and leave a lasting impression that screen printing cannot. However screen printed designs can be much larger and much more affordable than and embroidered item.
Advantages of Screen Printing
- The screen printing process is perfect for putting a larger logo on a lighter material like a t-shirt. An embroidered logo of the same size would not feel nice on the back of a cotton tee.
- Screen printing is faster and cheaper than embroidery, making it a preferred choice for many projects.
- The screen print process is better suited to print highly detailed graphics with color blends and other effects.
Do you offer custom shirt design work?

What is designing for screen printing?
Creating custom designs for screen printing involves creating artwork specifically tailored for the screen printing process. Screen printing, unlike other printing methods, demands designers to break down designs into separate colors or layers. Each color corresponding to a different screen. This separation enables the application of ink one color at a time, producing vibrant and high quality prints.
What are setup charges?
The setup charges are typically a one time charge to set up the screens for your job. If you reorder the same design there will not be a screen setup charge. These charges are $10 per screen / color and 12 pieces per imprinted color.
What if I only need a few shirts?
If you don’t need that many custom shirts we offer custom embroidery as an option. The minimum with only a 6 piece minimum. If your design has a lot of colors but you need a small quantity of shirts you may want to look at DTF or DTG printing.
The DTG printing process and DTF printing are great ways to get colorful and durable prints without setup the costs of other printing methods. The strength of those processes is the ability to get color rich designs in low quantities.
