Screen printing consists in transferring graphics to the product using specially prepared screens.
Making a print consists in forcing the paint through sieves directly onto the object, then exposing it to harden it. Screen printing is characterized by very good quality and durability. An ideal method for printing on cotton, polyester, paper or plastic.

ADVANTAGES:
• permanent marking technique
• good color reproduction
• fast printing for large runs

DISADVANTAGES:
• each color needs a separate matrix
• in the case of several-colored graphics, shifts in printing may occur

In this method, the paint is first applied to the transfer paper, and then, using a thermal press, to the material. The transfer press, with appropriate pressure and temperature, heats the paint onto the product. We use it on mainly textile materials (cotton, polyester, etc.)

ADVANTAGES:

• application durability

• high color saturation

• attractive appearance

DISADVANTAGES:

• additional pre-press costs

• no possibility to make tonal transitions

• a limited number of colors

• a time-consuming method

• the cost of prepress

This method comes from hand-embroidery that was already used in ancient times. The whole process begins with the creation of an embroidery software. Afterward the pattern is embroidered on fabric.

If you have decided on a gadget with irregular shapes, the pad printing method will be the most suitable for it. Pad printing is a marking technique that involves marking more complex and uneven surfaces. The graphics on the item are applied using a special stamp that transfers the paint from a previously prepared matrix. The pad printer likes to mark objects made of many materials: rubber, plastics, metal, porcelain, wood, glass, etc. etc. The great advantage of this method is its durability, it is resistant to the negative effects of external factors such as abrasion or the influence of water or chemicals.

ADVANTAGES:
- works great on uneven surfaces
- the possibility of decorating on various materials
- precisely reproduces the design
- additional cost of matrix preparation

DISADVANTAGES:
- limited number of colors
- not suitable for large areas
