What Is Screen Printing?
Screen printing is likely what you think of when you think about t-shirt printing and for good reason. It’s the traditional t-shirt printing method in which each colour in a design is separated out and burned to individual fine-mesh screens. Ink is then transferred to the t-shirt through the screen. Teams, organisations, and businesses usually choose screen printing because it’s extremely cost-effective for printing large sized custom apparel orders. Here’s the full run down from history to process explaining more in detail.
Screen Printing Process:
The first thing we do is separate out the colours in your logo or design. A separate screen is created for each colour in your design. Keep this in mind when ordering, as each additional colour increases the cost. To create the stencil, we coat a fine mesh screen with a light-sensitive emulsion. This screen is then exposed to bright light, hardening the emulsion and creating a precise stencil for each colour in your design. These stencils are used to transfer ink onto the fabric, bringing your artwork to life.
