Screen printing is a reliable method for producing bold, long-lasting designs on fabric. Whether you need custom t-shirts, hoodies, or promotional products, this process delivers sharp and consistent results.
At Design Brand Print, we specialize in screen printing for businesses, events, and brands. Our process ensures high-quality prints with accurate colors and a professional finish.
How Screen Printing Works
Screen printing uses a mesh screen to transfer ink onto fabric. The design is applied through a stencil, allowing ink to pass through specific areas.
Step-by-Step Process:
Design Creation – A digital design is prepared using software like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator. The design must have clear lines and colors to ensure sharp printing.
Screen Preparation – The design is transferred onto a UV light-exposed mesh screen. Each color in the design requires a separate screen.
Setup & Alignment – The screen is mounted onto a printing press, ensuring proper positioning.
Ink Mixing & Preparation – Plastisol inks are used for vibrant and long-lasting prints. Colors are precisely matched using the PMS coated color system.
Printing – Ink is spread across the screen using a squeegee, pushing it through the stencil onto the fabric.
Curing – The garment passes through a conveyor dryer to set the ink permanently.
Finishing – Final touches include trimming, folding, and packaging before shipping.
This technique produces strong, durable designs that withstand frequent washing.

FAQs
What is Screen Printing?
Screen printing uses a mesh screen to transfer ink onto fabric. The design is created by blocking out areas of the screen, allowing ink to pass through and imprint onto the material.
How It Works:
- A stencil of the design is placed onto the mesh screen.
- Ink is applied and pushed through with a squeegee.
- Each color in the design requires a separate screen.
- The ink is cured using heat to ensure durability.
This process allows for precise, long-lasting prints. It’s ideal for bulk orders and works well on a variety of materials.
How long does screen printing last?
Screen printing holds up well to washing and daily wear. Properly cured inks bond with the fabric, preventing cracking or fading.
Factors That Affect Durability:
- Fabric Type: Cotton and cotton-blends absorb ink better than synthetic fabrics.
- Ink Quality: Plastisol inks, which we use, offer strong adhesion and vibrant colors.
- Washing & Care: Washing in cold water and air drying extends the print’s life.
With proper care, screen-printed designs can last for years without significant wear.
What is the best fabric for screen printing?
The best fabrics absorb ink evenly and hold up to repeated washing.
Top Choices:
- 100% Cotton: Soft, breathable, and holds ink well.
- Cotton-Polyester Blends: Retains shape while offering durability.
- Tri-Blend (Cotton, Polyester, Rayon): Slightly textured but works for a soft vintage look.
Avoid heavily textured fabrics, as they can distort fine details in the print.
