We apply custom screen prints to a wide selection of items, including:
Understanding Custom Screen Prints
We apply custom prints using the technique of screen printing. This is when a screen — a stencil of sorts — is used to apply ink to a substrate. A different screen is used for each individual colour layer to ensure a vibrant pigment and long-lasting quality. The ink used in this technique is thicker than that used for digital printing.
Digital printing, unlike screen printing, applies a digitally designed image. This tends to fade faster and doesn't result in the same vibrant colours. Screen printing is one of the most effective printing techniques because it is long-lasting, pigmented and automated.
The automated screen printing process ensures that your customs screen prints are done properly, on time. Custom screen prints can be applied to a bulk volume of items if needed for an event or other promotional purposes.
Due to the efficient screen printing process, we are able to apply custom screen prints effectively and in a timely manner. Our state-of-the-art equipment, qualified staff, and eye for detail ensure that we can meet deadlines without sacrificing quality and accuracy. We will work with you every step of the way to ensure your vision is achieved.
Key Screen Printing Terms to Know:
Consult our detailed glossary for a full list of relevant printing industry terms, to help you educate yourself before embarking on your custom screen print project.
Durometer: This is the unit used to measure the hardness of a squeegee blade. A squeegee blade is what is used to apply ink through a printing screen onto a substrate in the screen printing process.
Halftone: A grayscale image or colour that has been converted into large and small dots for accurate screen printing. Halftone dots come in different types, but the elliptical dot is the shape most ideal for screen printing use. A halftone line count is an indicator of the amount of dots in a screen print.
Off-contact Screen printing: This screen printing tactic creates a gap between the substrate and the screen to improve the printing quality.
Plastisol: The ink most commonly used for custom screen prints. The ink is comprised of colour pigments, plasticizers, and PVC.
Professional Equipment
In today’s competitive business environment, custom screen prints require state-of-the-art equipment and the latest technology. We use both manual and automatic equipment for our screen printing services for varying purposes.
That said, the production rate of an automatic screen printing press is much higher than that of a manual press. This technology also results in higher quality print results.
Our efficient technology and experienced team of staff ensure that we get the job done properly and on time. There is no reason to sacrifice quality for a quick turnaround when you can have both.
