Screen Printing Toronto – High-Volume, Vibrant Prints

What is Screen Printing?

Screen printing (also called silk screening) is a traditional method where ink is pushed through a fine mesh screen onto fabric. Each color in your design requires a separate screen, which is why screen printing works best for designs with 1-4 solid colors.

The result? Thick, vibrant ink that sits on top of the fabric with incredible opacity and durability. Unlike DTG or DTF (where ink absorbs into fibers), screen-printed designs have a slightly raised texture and bold color that won't fade even after 100+ washes.

When to Choose Screen Printing

Perfect for:
• Large orders (100+ pieces) – lowest per-unit cost at scale
• Simple designs with 1-4 solid colors
• Bold logos that need maximum vibrancy and opacity
• Durability priority – lasts 100+ washes without fading
• Matching exact Pantone colors for brand consistency

Not ideal if:
• You need fewer than 25 pieces (setup costs make it expensive)
• Your design has 10+ colors, gradients, or photo-realistic details (use DTF or DTG instead)
• You're in a rush and need it in 24-48 hours (screen setup takes time)

Design Guidelines

For Best Screen Printing Results:
• Vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) or high-res PNG (300 DPI minimum)
• Solid colors with clean edges – avoid gradients or blends
• Keep color count low (1-4 colors is ideal)
• Line thickness at least 1mm (fine details may not print clearly)

Common Questions:

Q: Can you match my exact brand colors?
A: Yes. We mix custom Pantone inks to match your brand colors precisely. Provide us your Pantone color codes and we'll ensure perfect consistency.

Q: How durable is screen printing?
A: Screen printing is the most durable print method. Properly cured plastisol inks last 100+ washes without fading, cracking, or peeling. It's why screen printing has been the industry standard for decades.

Q: Can you print photos with screen printing?
A: Not recommended. Screen printing works best with solid colors and bold graphics. For photos, gradients, or designs with 7+ colors, use DTG or DTF instead.

Q: What's your minimum for screen printing?
A: 50 pieces minimum. If you need fewer, we recommend DTF or DTG.
