A technique that’s been revolutionizing custom apparel for decades. At ThreadCo Print Shop, located in the heart of Vancouver, we specialize in bringing your unique designs to life through high-quality screen printing.

What is Screen Printing?

Screen printing, also known as silk screening, is a versatile printing technique that involves transferring ink onto a surface through a mesh screen. This method allows for the creation of vivid, durable designs on a variety of garments, from t-shirts and hoodies to bags and hats.

Why Choose Screen Printing?

1. Durability: Screen printing produces long-lasting prints that can withstand repeated washings and wear. This makes it an ideal choice for team uniforms, workwear, and promotional merchandise.

2. Vibrant Colors: This method uses thick inks that result in bright, eye-catching colors. Whether you’re looking for a simple one-color design or a complex multi-color artwork, screen printing can achieve stunning results.

3. Versatility: Screen printing isn’t limited to fabric. It can be used on a wide range of materials, including paper, wood, and plastic, making it a versatile option for various projects.

Our Process

4. Curing: After printing, the garments are cured in a high-temperature dryer to set the ink. This step is crucial for the durability and vibrancy of the print.
