Services
Silk Screen Printing
Our 6-color automatic and hand-pulled silk screening combines traditional techniques with modern precision. Ideal for bulk apparel orders, this method ensures vibrant, durable prints on t-shirts, hoodies, and more. We accommodate standard and custom Pantone colors with specialized effects like distressed finishes.
Custom Design Services
From concept to production, our team assists with logo placement, layout optimization, and style selection. We provide tailored suggestions to align prints with brand identity, including mid-sized (7-8" W) and full-sized (12"x16" max) design options for front/back or chest placements.
Pantone Color Matching
We precisely match custom Pantone (PMS) colors to maintain brand consistency. With 20-40 standard inks in stock, we ensure accurate color reproduction for logos, text, and intricate graphics, charging a small upcharge for specialized color formulations.
DTG Printing
For detailed photographic prints or small batches, our DTG technology delivers high-resolution results. Optimized for gradient-based designs, this digital method works best with raster files at 300-1200 PPI, supporting complex imagery on light or dark garments.
Artwork Optimization
We accept vector (AI/CorelDraw), raster (Photoshop), and tablet-generated files. Our team ensures proper layer organization, text outlining, and resolution adjustments. For imperfect submissions, we offer recreation services starting at $30, scaling up to $300 for multi-layer hand-drawn designs.
