Thermo-flex® vinyl
We can add names, numbers, type, or low-poly vector art to any apparel with Thermo-Flex. This vinyl material comes in many standard colors that we currently stock. Thermo-Flex is cut out from a sheet and pressed on with a heat transfer machine.
Screen Printing
silk screening
for Events, Branding & Fundraisers
Ink pressed through a UV exposed screen onto a garment, heat cured and dried. Orders of 12 or more of the same color are ideal for silk screen. If changing image color an ink/clean-up charge will be added and will take longer. Works best for large quantities of items, great for companies, family reunions, schools, fundraisers, sports, and events.
This process is takes longer than our other methods, but looks the best. An individual screen is made for each color, so designs are separated by color and placed on each screen accordingly. If placing an order with both adult and youth shirts, a youth-sized design can be made and placed on a separate screen depending on design size and screen space.
Some orders can take up to 2 - 3 weeks after your art is approved, depending on quantity, colors, and other factors.
Heat transfers and DTF
Good for small quantities or varying designs like personalized names to be added to screen printed items. Thermo-Flex is great for single color, simple designs like one color logos, names, gag gifts, sportswear numbers, and many more!
- Heat Transfers are great for small quanities of Shirts, Hats, Table cloths, Awnings, Bags, Koozies and more.
Regular Transfers work well on light shades of material.
Opaque Transfers have a white background, and work well on darker colored materials. It has a paper like feel. Stop in or email your own photos. This is great for small quantities with complex designs or gradients. It will take up to a week to finish once any artwork is approved.
DTF (direct to film) is a newer process that provides outstanding image quality and unlimited colors. Great for small or large orders.
