Screen Printing

Screen Printing is a good choice for a high-quality print on multiple shirts.

Colors printed
For each color in the design, a separate screen is needed.
1-color printing costs less then multi-colors.
12 pieces is the minimum per color to avoid screen charges.

We charge $10.00 for 'on-press' ink color change.

Minimums (no screen charges if you do):
1-color printing - 12 shirts
2-color printing - 24 shirts
3-color printing - 36 shirts
4-color printing - 48 shirts

The only time there is a screen charge:
If you want less than the minimum shirts required per screen,
we charge $35 per screen (and that includes film etc)

General Rule:
The more you order, the better your price will be per shirt.

Larger sizes
Add the following for sizes over XL
XXL (2X) - Add $1.00
XXXL (3X)- Add $2.00
XXXXL (4X) - Add $3.00
XXXXXL (5X)- Add $4.00
XXXXXXL (6X) - Add $5.00

Cotton / polyester??
100% cotton, 100% polyester, or a 50/50 blend is your choice.

Artwork
We assist with artwork, design, adding text etc.
On 1-color jobs there is often no art charges.
When color-separations are needed, or more time will be spent on getting the graphics
ready, there is a small charge for artwork/design help.

Pockets cost more
Shirts with a pocket are $1.00 more.

Color of shirt - price difference
Colored shirts cost more than white shirts.
In addition printing on dark shirts (with light ink) is more involved, which also
affects the price.

Front and/or back
Print on front (full or pocket area), back, sleeve. There are endless possibilities
depending what we print on. Each area is a separate print.

Rush-jobs
Orders take about 10 working days. If you need something a lot sooner,
our RUSH! -charge is $25.00 (if we are able do it) and/or we might have you pay
for shipping of the shirts to our location.

Q: How does screenprinting work?

Step 1
The image is printed in black on a transparancy film. Each color on the shirt requires a different film.

Step 2
The transparancy film is used to burn the image into a screen.

Step 3
Ink is then pushed through the screen with a squeegee onto the shirt and creates the print (white in this example on a black shirt; then red was printed over white using a different screen).
