• Ability to print exact Pantone® colours
• Good durability if instructions are followed
• Cost-effective for medium and large runs
• Ideal for customising promotional clothing

Handicaps

• Limited to simple designs with few colours
• Not suitable for printing photographs or gradients
• Less suitable for technical fabrics if breathability is required

Screen-print transfer combines the quality of screen printing with the versatility of transfer printing. The design is first screen-printed onto special paper and then transferred to the product using heat. This produces intense, flat colours that are highly durable, even on tricky areas or garments that cannot be printed directly.

Advantages

• Allows printing of exact Pantone® colours
• Intense, flat colours with good opacity
• More durable than digital transfers
• Ideal for garments that undergo frequent washing

Handicaps

• Limited number of colours
• Not suitable for photographic or gradient designs
