Screen printing applies ink directly onto fabric, creating a smooth and colorful finish, while embroidery uses stitched thread to create a textured, high-end look. Screen printing is ideal for large, colorful designs, while embroidery is best for small logos and professional branding.

Our Use of Screen Printing
We use the process of screen printing in order to decorate your apparel or your clients apparel.

Before you can start seeing the actual design screen printing on apparel, there are multiple steps that need to happen before being ready to print the apparel.
