What's Happening in Dunkeld, Hyde Park, Gauteng…

Screen printing uses a stencilled mesh screen to create a printed design on different types of materials. It is most notably used for creating custom T-Shirts and Apparel, but this method can be used for many purposes and industries. In fact, if you’d had to look around you, you may find that you indeed own multiple products that have been created using screen printing.

Here are a few examples of how you could use screen printing in your business:

Glass and Ceramics.

Many of the branded and printed water bottles and Mugs with logos, event information or designs are screen-printed. These items are perfect for branded merchandise and promotional giveaways. Screen printing, however, is not limited to these items; it can also be used on many other glass and ceramic surfaces, such as mirrors, glass panels, tiles, and other surfaces.

Textile Printing

If you want to create unique textiles, screen printing is a great way to improve the appearance of any fabric and make any kind of pattern you want. Screen printing can easily be done on many types of materials, including silk and wool fabrics as well as jersey fabrics, acrylic, polyester, and other fabrics.

Posters, Canvases and Artwork.

Using a screen stencil, you can make multiple identical Copies of the same artwork, poster or signage. This means that you can easily and affordably create large quantities of the same item, allowing for large distribution on a budget. This also makes the bulk creation of canvases to be sold in retail stores; your only limit here will be your imagination.

Clothing and Promotional Products.

Screen printing can be used to make many pieces of Apparel. Screen printing is an affordable option that allows clothing to be customised in various ways, albeit with designs, team names, logos, etc. Examples of Apparel that can be created using screen printing include T-Shirts, sweatshirts and hats.

Product Packaging and Labels.

Screen printing also allow for the easy creation of product labels that would otherwise be woven, or product Packaging that would usually be printed in the traditional manner. This can be a much more effective way of creating unique designs sustainably in a short time frame. It will also give you more vibrancy and colour and be cheaper.
