Decoration methods, answered.
Which printing method is best for bulk t-shirt orders?
Screen printing is the most cost-effective for orders of 100+ units with 1-8 solid colours. For full-colour photographic artwork, DTG is recommended. For all-over coverage on polyester, sublimation is the right choice.
Can you do all-over printing on hoodies?
Yes. All-over print is available on 100% polyester hoodies using sublimation printing. Cotton hoodies can be printed with large-format screen printing for partial coverage.
What is the difference between puff print and 3D embroidery?
Puff print is a screen printing technique that creates a raised effect using heat-activated ink additives. 3D puff embroidery uses a foam base under the embroidery thread to create a three-dimensional raised effect. Both are available at ZN Apparel Manufacturers.
