Printing FAQs
What printing methods do you use?
We mostly use traditional screenprinting.
Screenprinting: your artwork is exposed onto a screen to produce an exact image of your artwork. Ink is then pushed through the exposed image on the screen onto your garment. This is the most popular and established method of garment printing in the world today. It is perfect for quantities from 25 up to 2000 or more t-shirts.
Do you use earth-friendly inks?
Yes, we use the friendliest inks available. They are water based and free from solvents, toxic chemicals, CFCs, HCFCs, and other nasties. We wash up the screens with water rather than chemical solvents, ensuring you have the highest-quality, lowest-impact print around.
What is the minimum print run?
The minimum print is 25 shirts. This means that the print requirements need to be exactly the same for all shirts. This includes having all shirts black / dark / coloured OR all shirts white / light coloured. If you have a range of designs, you need to get at least 25 shirts with each design. If you are printing shirts for adults and children, we usually need a smaller print for children's shirts up to and including size 6. In that case, you would need a minimum of 25 small tees and a minimum of 25 bigger kids and adults tees.
How do I send my artwork?
