Screen Print

 

Screen Printing is achieved by forcing ink through a fine mesh screen with a squeegee onto the product and is ideal for branding flat objects.



Advantages
  • Large print areas are possible on flat products
  • Close PMS matches are possible on white or light-coloured products
  • Most screen print inks dry quickly and can be shipped immediately after printing
  • Fluorescent, metallic gold and silver inks are available on select textile products
  • Many products can print with tight multi-colour registration, with some products able to be printed using up to five colours
Limitations
  • Close PMS matches are more difficult on darker products and will only be approximate. In some instances, a white base will create a better print
  • Unable to print variable data
  • Each colour requires its own setup charge
Artwork Requirements
  • Artwork must be supplied in a vector editable format
  • Fonts are advised to be converted to outlines/objects to avoid font conflicts
