Screen Printing

Screen printing is the most common way of getting your print onto clothing. 

A stencil of the design is made on a mesh screen (also called silkscreen) and ink is pulled through the screen onto the garment, which is then cured in an oven. Each colour requires a separate screen, so the more colours in your print the more screens are used and the price increases accordingly.

Screen printing gives great quality, long-lasting prints. Most garments can be printed but you cannot print over zips or seams.

Screen Print pricing is determinant on the number of colours in the print and the number of units being printed. The price matrix below is intended as a guide only. In order to provide you with a quote for printing, we will need to view your artwork to determine the appropriate print method and number of colours.
