SCREEN PRINTING
Screen printing requires a separate screen for each color, which can increase
setup costs and time for multi-color designs.
Complex and highly detailed designs may require additional prepress work and
adjustments to ensure accurate reproduction.
involves creating a stencil (or screen) for each color in the design. Ink is forced
through the screen onto the t-shirt using a squeegee, resulting in a vibrant and
durable print.
DIRECT-TO-GARMENT
(DTG) PRINTING
DTG printing may not be as cost-effective for larger quantities
compared to screen printing.
Dark-colored garments may require a white underbase layer, which
can increase the complexity and production time.
Pre-treatment of the fabric may be necessary to optimize ink
absorption and color vibrancy.
A modern technique that allows for high-quality prints directly onto the
fabric of the t-shirt.
HEAT TRANSFER
PRINTING
Durability and longevity: While heat transfer prints are generally
durable, they may not be as long-lasting as other printing methods
like screen printing.
Sensitivity to heat and friction: Heat transfer prints may be more
susceptible to cracking, peeling, or fading over time with frequent
washing and high heat settings.
Cost implications for larger quantities: Heat transfer printing may not
be as cost-effective as other methods for larger production runs.
Involves applying designs to t-shirts using heat and pressure to transfer
pre-printed or digitally printed designs onto the fabric.
VINYL PRINTING
Limited color options: Vinyl printing is typically limited to single-
color designs due to the nature of the vinyl sheets.
Not suitable for complex or detailed designs: Intricate designs with
fine details or gradients may not be suitable for vinyl printing.
Texture and feel: The vinyl material adds a slight texture to the print,
which can be noticeable on the fabric surface.
Involves cutting designs or letters from colored vinyl material and heat
pressing them onto t-shirts to create a solid, single-color design.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
