Screen Printing
Screen Printing is one of the oldest methods of printing and it is still being used today to print a variety of items like apparel and signs. It is done by coating a mesh screen with waterproof emulsion and creating a stencil
(an area of open mesh, not coated with emulsion).
Ink is passed through the stencil (open mesh area), most often using a squeegee, and directly onto a substrate such as a t-shirt or any other type of garment.
we use automatic and manual equipment for optimal results.
When we talk about t-shirt printing, every print is different. We only use the most cutting edge screen printing equipment technology and the highest quality screen printing inks to print your design. Our level of experience and knowledge acquired over the years ensures that each and every order will have the right colors, perfect design placement, and will never fade or crack in the washing machine.
Plastisol Printing
This ink is the most commonly used ink in the industry. Plastisol inks sits on top of the fabric , giving the image a superior color saturation and durability.
Soft Hand Plastisol
Code uses a special hybrid style of printing in which we use a discharge underbase with our special soft reduced down plastisol inks on top.
Discharge
Discharge printing is the softest method to use. The process basically bleaches out the dye out of the shirt, leaving its natural color showing through (usually a tan color). We can also PMS match discharge ink.
Process printing
process printing is a screen printing technique that can achieve a more photo-realistic print for designs with lots of detail or gradients. Photo-realistic designs are often created with DTG (Direct to Garment) printing, but we can also simulate the look of digital printing with screen printing using sim process. One advantage of sim process is the ability to use a small amount of colors to create the illusion of many.
Foil
Foil is a reflective mirror like technique applied by printing a coat of adhesive to the garment and then heat sealing the area with a sheet of foil.Using Foil can add a bit of extra glitz to an extra special design.
