Why choose screen-printing over other printing methods?

Well… that totally depends on your project, the job your product is supposed to do and where you’re going to use it. But screen-printing has some major advantages it brings to the table. It’s a great choice for so many reasons.

Better inks for durability

While digital printing can be quick and efficient, screen-printing can offer so much more in terms of the colour quality.

The types of inks used in screen-printing are heavier, thicker and more vibrant. These inks are extremely durable and stick to surfaces extraordinarily well.

The colour-rich designs on your screen-printed product will stay crisp for much longer than the digitally printed ones. It’s also great for outdoor use, as the inks are completely weather resistant.

Affordability

In many cases, screen-printing is less expensive than digital printing on long runs.

While it takes time to get things set up as it requires the fabrication of screens for every colour used, it’s easy to print large quantities from that point onwards.

So, the more you print, the more cost-effective it turns out.

Extremely versatile

You’ll have to search far and wide for a more versatile method than screen-printing. It can be applied to almost any surface as long as it is flat.

You can print on materials like PVC, polypropylene, timber, leather, material and even metal, making your custom binders, custom signs and display products or promotional merchandise ever so impactful.

This opens up a world of opportunities in customising your merchandise and stationery for heightened brand recognition.

Speed

Screen-printing is an extremely efficient and fast printing technique once the screen has been created. Screen-printing is the best choice if the same design is to be printed over and over again.

The wow-factor

Because of the crispness of the images and extremely good quality of the inks used, a screen-printed product looks very professional.

This goes a long way in elevating your business, brand or product in itself. As people, we’re naturally drawn to imagery that is created with care and attention.
