Traditional Screen Printing
Advantages:
DURABILITY
Screen printing uses thicker, high-quality inks, producing designs that can withstand repeated washing without fading or cracking.
VIBRANCY
It excels in producing bright, opaque colors, even on dark fabrics.
COST-EFFECTIVE FOR LARGE RUNS
While the initial setup is labor-intensive, screen printing becomes more economical as the order size increases, making it ideal for bulk orders.
VERSATILITY
It can be used on a wide variety of surfaces, including textiles, glass, metal, and more.
Disadvantages:
SETUP COSTS & TIME
Creating screens for each color is time-consuming and can be expensive, especially for small runs or multi-colored designs.
LIMITED DETAIL
While great for bold, solid designs, it may struggle with intricate, photo-like details.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Screen printing generates waste, particularly from inks and cleaning agents, making it less eco-friendly compared to some modern methods.
