Frequently Asked Questions

What is screen printing and embroidery?

Screen printing is a printing method that presses ink through a prepared screen to create bold, vibrant designs on apparel, especially t-shirts, hoodies, and lightweight garments. Embroidery uses computerized stitching to sew thread directly into fabric, creating a textured, premium look. Screen printing is often best for larger colorful runs, while embroidery is ideal for polos, hats, jackets, and uniforms.
