Services
Screen Printing
Screen printing transfers ink through mesh stencils to create durable, high-quality designs on apparel. Ideal for bulk orders, this method ensures vibrant colors that withstand repeated washing. We specialize in multi-color designs using advanced halftone techniques for gradient effects on cotton and polyester blends.
Embroidery
Precision embroidery adds professional, textured designs to garments and accessories using reinforced thread stitching. Perfect for logos on polos, hats, and bags, our digital embroidery machines handle intricate multi-color patterns while maintaining structural integrity of performance fabrics and traditional materials alike.
Graphic Design
Our design team creates custom artwork optimized for print production, from concept sketches to final file preparation. Clients receive format-specific proofs ensuring accurate color matching and placement across multiple printing methods including screen, digital, and embroidered applications.
Heat Transfer Vinyl
Heat-applied vinyl creates crisp, full-color designs without screens or minimum order requirements. This cost-effective option works on garments and specialty items like koozies, offering quick turnaround for small batches while maintaining wash-resistant durability on cotton and synthetic materials.
Dye Sublimation
Dye sublimation embeds permanent, photo-quality designs into polyester fabrics using heat transfer technology. This method allows unlimited color options and complex patterns without layering issues, ideal for performance wear and custom team uniforms requiring breathability and flexibility.

Questions
How does screen printing create durable designs?
Our screen printing process uses specialized plastisol ink that bonds permanently to fabric fibers during heat curing, ensuring designs withstand 50+ wash cycles without cracking or fading on cotton and polyester blends.
What's the minimum order requirement for custom shirts?
We maintain a minimum of 24 units for screen printed shirts to ensure production efficiency, though embroidery and heat transfer orders can accommodate smaller quantities starting at single items.
Can you match specific design colors?
Our color matching system combines Pantone references and in-house mixing capabilities to achieve 98% color accuracy across all printing methods, with test prints available for critical projects requiring exact branding replication.
Do you print on performance fabrics?
Yes - we specialize in printing on moisture-wicking polyester blends including Dri-FIT materials, using modified inks and tension settings to maintain fabric performance characteristics while ensuring adhesion and flexibility.
What file formats do you accept for designs?
We work with vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) for best results, though high-resolution raster files (300dpi PNG, JPEG) can be converted. Our designers offer free file optimization to ensure print-ready quality for all submitted artwork.
