The affordability of silk screen printing occurs when the size of the order increases as the fixed cost is then spread over the volume of items to be printed.
As an order size increases, the costs for silk screen printing falls, because the initial setup costs of the silk screening are spread over a larger number of garments. At some point, silk screen printing will actually become more economical than heat transfers.

DURABLE & LONG LASTING
Silk Screen printing provides excellent durability as the inks involved where designed to be used on a range of different surfaces. In addition to the inks physical properties, the act of pressing the silk screen ink into the fabric further increases the longevity of the design. A t shirt or polo tee that uses the silk screen process will stand up to years of washes and physical abuse. We highly recommend this type of printing process for our clients in active environments often found in the service industry.

In most cases the ink that is used is called Plastisol, which was designed to offer superior colour and durability. The simple silk screen process also allows for modifications to the technique that can result in some fascinating designs
