Bold, Durable Prints for Bulk Orders

Screen printing has been the go-to method for custom apparel for decades — and for good reason. This technique pushes ink through a fine mesh screen onto the garment, creating thick, vibrant layers of color that stand up to heavy use and repeated washing.

While it requires setup time for each color in your design, the cost per piece drops significantly with volume. That's why screen printing is the most economical choice for bulk orders of 25+ pieces with simple to medium-complexity designs.

Best for: Event t-shirts, team uniforms, employee apparel, promotional merchandise, and any project where quantity drives down the per-unit cost.

Screen printed inks cure into the fabric, creating prints that last through hundreds of washes without fading or cracking.

Vibrant Colors

Common Screen Printing Questions

Our screen printing minimum is 25 pieces per design. However, if you need fewer than 25, we can use DTG printing instead — same great quality, no minimums required.
Yes! We offer individualized names/numbers using transfer printing for an additional fee. This works well for team uniforms where each player needs a different name on the back. Pricing depends on the quantity of unique names.
You can use as many colors as you like, but each color requires its own screen, which adds to the setup cost. For most projects, 1-4 colors works best. Complex full-color designs may be better suited for DTG printing.
Absolutely! We can match specific Pantone (PMS) colors for exact brand consistency. Color matching is free on orders of 50+ pieces; a $25 fee applies to smaller orders.
