Key Benefits of Choosing the Right Printing Method
SOYT Printing offers both digital and traditional printing, ensuring high-quality results for any custom t-shirt project. Digital printing (DTF and DTG) is ideal for detailed, full-color designs, while traditional printing (screen printing) is best for bold, cost-effective bulk orders. Understanding these differences will help you choose the right printing method for your design and budget.
What is Digital Printing?
Digital printing applies ink directly onto fabric, making it great for detailed images, gradients, and full-color designs. DTF (Direct-to-Film) and DTG (Direct-to-Garment) printing are both digital methods that create photo-quality prints with no setup fees.
What is Traditional Printing?
Traditional printing, like screen printing, uses stencils and ink layers to create bold, durable designs. This method is ideal for large orders, simple graphics, and long-lasting durability.

Which Printing Method is Right for You?
If you need highly detailed, colorful prints for small runs, digital printing is the best choice. If you need cost-effective, long-lasting prints for bulk orders, traditional screen printing is your best option.
