What is Screen Printing?

The screen-printing process is the more traditional and classic style of pushing ink through a woven mesh stencil and onto fabric. Each colour of ink requires a separate screen, so this method usually works best for designs with very few colours.

How the designs are made to travel to the special transfer paper by the use of screen-printing techniques. A heat press machine is applied on the transfer paper attaching it on the clothes and enabling it to paste the paper on the garment using a high temperature.

Pros of Screen Printing

• Known for producing vibrant, long-lasting prints that endure repeated washing.
• Ideal for large quantities due to the setup involved.
• Offers a unique hand feel where you can feel the ink on the fabric.

Cons of Screen Printing

• Due to the setup required, it’s less economical for smaller runs.
• Best suited for designs with fewer colors.
• Each color needs a separate screen, increasing the complexity for multi-coloured designs.
