Key Benefits of Choosing the Right Printing Method
SOYT Printing offers both screen printing and DTG (Direct-to-Garment) printing, each with its own advantages. Screen printing is best for bulk orders and bold designs, while DTG is ideal for detailed, full-color prints on smaller runs. Choosing the right method ensures your custom t-shirts look professional, last longer, and stay within budget.
What is Screen Printing?
Screen printing uses stencils and ink layers to create bold, vibrant designs. It’s ideal for large orders, solid color prints, and long-lasting durability. Because each color requires a separate stencil, screen printing is cost-effective for bulk orders but less practical for detailed, multi-color designs.
What is Direct-to-Garment (DTG) Printing?
DTG uses high-resolution inkjet technology to print full-color, detailed images directly onto fabric. This method is perfect for small orders, intricate graphics, and designs with shading or gradients. Unlike screen printing, DTG allows for on-demand printing with no setup fees, but it’s best suited for lighter fabrics and smaller production runs.
