Our Services
SCREEN PRINTING
Screen printing transfers ink onto a substrate using a mesh stencil. The stencil blocks off areas, leaving only the desired image exposed. It is versatile, cost-effective, and popular for printing on textiles and promotional materials. Screen printing produces opaque prints with vibrant colors, even on dark fabrics. Various effects are achievable with different inks and techniques. While relatively simple, the process requires specialized equipment, skills, and experience for high-quality results. Screen printing is a centuries-old method that allows for a wide range of ink colors and types.
HYBRID DIGITAL TRANSFERS
Hybrid digital transfers are a durable type of heat applied print media for textiles. It’s a mix of full-colour digital print and screen print base designed to withstand repeated washing and wear. Heat press applies these transfers onto fabric with heat and pressure. Hybrid transfers are perfect for creating branded merchandise like t-shirts, hats, and bags with detailed designs. They are versatile, cost-effective, and ideal for producing long-lasting and high-quality products.
PATCHES
Patches are a versatile and cost-effective way to add branding or personalization to garments like jackets, hats, bags, and shirts. There are many customization options for patches, including decoration types, sizes, shapes, colours, and styles. Patches can be created with simple text or intricate designs, and can also include Velcro backing or iron-on adhesive. They are a great way to add additional features to garments and enhance their look.
PROMOTIONAL PRODUCTS
Promotional products are a cost-effective way to increase brand recognition, attract new customers, and retain existing ones. Stubbie coolers are perfect for outdoor events and summertime gatherings, while pens are a staple that everyone can use. Bags and drinkware are also popular items that people use on a daily basis, turning them into walking billboards for your brand. Personalizing these items with your logo and messaging can create a lasting impression on your target audience. Whether you’re looking to increase brand awareness or reward loyal customers, promotional products can help drive business success.
EMBROIDERY
Textile and headwear embroidery involve stitching designs onto garments and hats using thread and a needle. For textile embroidery, designs are digitized, fabric is hooped, and an embroidery machine stitches the design using various techniques and thread colors. Headwear embroidery is similar, but the specialized machine fits the curved surface of hats. Embroidery can create simple or intricate designs, with effects like 3D, metallic, and applique. It is popular for branded merchandise due to its durability.
DIRECT TO FILM TRANSFERS
Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing is a cost-effective digital printing technique that involves printing designs directly onto a special film and then transferring it onto garments or textiles using a heat press. DTF printing offers high-quality and detailed prints, even on dark or coloured fabrics. DTF printers use a specialised ink set that includes a white ink to create a base layer, followed by CMYK colours. The ink is printed onto a special film and transferred onto the garment using heat and pressure. DTF printing offers several advantages over traditional printing methods, such as screen printing or direct-to-garment (DTG) printing.

GRAPHIC DESIGN
Graphic design uses creative and technical skills to visually communicate a message through typography, images, and colors. It offers endless possibilities for creativity, allowing for minimalist or bold designs. When combined with other printing techniques such as screen printing and embroidery, graphic design can create unique and eye-catching promotional products. With graphic design, you can achieve any desired look and feel, so let your creativity flow and explore the amazing designs you can create!
