Screen Printing

What is it? The process of screen printing, sometimes referred to as silk screening, involves moving ink through a fie mesh screen. The screen is masked in areas where no ink is desired. The item is then sent on a conveyor belt through a heat tunnel to dry or cure the ink. Properly cured screen printed inks will last on a garment or other item through many washes and heavy wear.
