This is the most common technique for printing T-shirts. A screen is made for each colour that one wants to be printed onto every side of the shirt that you want printed. The screen has an open area’ of where the ink is allowed to go through and be applied to the shirt, cap or whatever is being printed. Once printed the printed garment is cured in a heat tunnel or heat press so that the image will not wash out or fade. We can print up to 8 spot colours and will shortly upgrading that to an unlimited amount. We also print full colour using the CMYK process system ,simulated process system or index system. Our art and design is done in house at no charge. For embroidery designs we also do in house digitising at no cost. For light garments we are able to use a soft ink that has a soft touch or soft hand feel to it and it penetrates within the garment. With darker garments we need to use a more opaque ink that needs to sit more on the surface of the garment. This can give a more plastic type feel to it but there are ways of making it feel softer. We are also able to print a discharge ink onto dark items leaving a very soft feel to the shirt. When we use this process we almost bleach out just the area of the shirt we want printed so that that particular area returns to its natural cotton colour. We then print just that area with a soft ink so that the end result is a printed t-shirt with a very soft feel to it. For this process the garment must be 100% cotton and it need to be dyed using a reactive dye. We are able to supply these shirts or you may supply your own.

t-shirt printing

There’s no arguing t-shirts are one of, if not the most common, clothing staple worldwide with each of us having at least a handful of them in our cupboards. What we commonly know as the t-shirt today dates back many centuries when the modern trending “onesie” was separated into two, allowing the t-shirt to come into existence. With its name deriving from the shape of its outline, this seemingly undervalued and uninteresting item of clothing has become somewhat of a promotional hit and proves to be the cream of the crop in terms of comfort. The very first promotional t-shirt was printed in 1939 for The Wizard Of Oz and has since gained popularity and success across a multitude of industries with custom t-shirts famously sporting text or quotes in nearly every country and city across the globe. Branded t-shirts are known to famously display logos or pop culture trends and have been favoured by many artists for the ways in which it sells to their loyal followers, giving rise to custom t-shirt printing and the benefits it brings to the promotional market.
