Screen Print
Screen Print, as the name implies, use screens as stencils for applying layers of inks onto the print surface.
It is the most cost-effective method for having artwork printed on garments in bulk with high quality results.
Screen Prints are very durable and last for a long time even after multiple washes.
Each screen can only be used for 1 colour at a time and for artworks with more than 4 colours, screen-printing will not be cost efficient due to the high set-up costs of having screens made.
