🖨️ What is Direct Screen Printing?
Direct screen printing is the most traditional and widely used method of custom textile printing. Ink is applied directly onto the fabric surface through a prepared mesh screen – each colour in the design has its own screen and printing is done layer by layer. The result is an exceptionally vibrant, precise and durable print that withstands dozens of wash cycles without fading, peeling or cracking.
Unlike digital methods, screen printing offers unrivalled colour saturation and texture – the ink is felt on the textile, giving it volume and character. That is why screen printing on t-shirts is the number one choice worldwide for band merch, corporate apparel and sports jerseys.
💡 Simply put: Send us your design → we prepare the screens → we print your textiles with a precision that digital printing cannot replace. Every piece looks perfect.
