Screen Printing

Screen printing is a technique that has been around for thousands of years, specifically around 1000 AD, but was first introduced in a more modern sense in the early 1960s when printed t-shirts were becoming exceedingly trendy. Once multi-colored screen printing was introduced, the t-shirt printing industry changed forever and has only increased in popularity over the past 60 years.

This process of printing is created using a combination of modern technology with large quantities of ink on a large and flat metal surface. Pressing the ink through a mesh stencil, or silkscreen, into the fabric will create the desired image or logo in a matter of minutes. This technique is extremely popular for creating custom apparel (generally in large quantities) and is most widely known across the world.

Digital Garment Printing

Digital garment printing is a much newer printing method, having only been around for just over 15 years.  Using a special printer infused with water-based ink, our professionals apply the ink directly to the cotton fabric to create any custom look or logo you desire.
