Large Screen Print

Large Screen Print

Large Screen Print projects require specialized and unique equipment to accomplish.  Most screen printing facilities offer standard print sizes and won’t allow for a Large Screen Print.  After all, most screen printing presses are made for T-Shirts, so even if you wear a 6XL, you don’t need a design much bigger than 14″ on the front and back of your shirt.

So what happens if you need a print image that’s 40″ wide or wider?  What if you don’t want the image screen printed on a T-Shirt but you want Large Screen Print for fabric panels?

Most standard screen printing companies would have a challenge printing on large fabric panels.  With our jumbo screen printing presses, AMBRO Manufacturing can print on any fabric, of any size.

Large Screen Print requires the use of specialized equipment and knowledge.  What makes jumbo screen printing even more challenging is that for some Large Screen Print jobs, equipment is not available to accomplish the work.  This means that custom screen printing shops like AMBRO Manufacturing have to manufacture or re-tool equipment to achieve your desired results.

Using our in-house machine shop will custom fabricate the necessary parts and adjustments to achieve the best results for your project.  Our experienced staff will guide you through the entire process, answering each of your questions and getting our questions answered so that we can achieve the right results for your project.

A large part of a successful Jumbo Screen Printing project is early communication.  When our design team understands the screen printing requirements of your project, we can guide your team early in the process to ensure that the print quality that you expect is achieved.

AMBRO Manufacturing specializes in Tees Design and has been decorating garments for over three decades.  Our in-house Tees Design staff has access to a wide range of garment decorating technologies that include : Oversize T Shirt Printing, Jumbo T Shirt Printing, Sublimation Printing, Embroidery, DTG (Direct To Garment) printing and Digital Vinyl Print and Transfer.

Tees Design

There are many  online t shirt designing tools that enable individuals and companies to create custom Tees Design with relative ease.  However, these tools are somewhat limiting and only allow for stock clip art, uploaded clip art and some fonts to be used.  More advanced Tees Design methods like half tones, jumbo prints, drop shadows and other techniques and methods that make your Tees Design pop are not available in most online t shirt design tools.

Most contract screen printing companies have in-house art staff that can work with you to create Tees Design that could never be accomplished with a cookie cutter t shirt design tool.  You might be amazed at some of the things that you can accomplish with an affordable two color design, or a one color design that incorporates fades and half tones.

Using online design tools is great if you want a standard size print shirt, with minimal artistic flair.  But if you are looking for the wow factor and you want to turn heads with your designs, working with a talented T Shirt artist at a contract screen printing company can produce amazing results.

If you are concerned that working with a professional on staff artist will increase the cost of your project, you might be interested that many contract screen printers won’t charge you for art if you are ordering a specific quantity of T Shirts.

Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing

Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing

One of the most impressive design methods for T-Shirts is the use of Dye Sublimation.  Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing begins with a 100% white polyester t-shirt, a custom dye sublimation printer, special transfer papers, and most importantly a very good industrial heat iron or heat press.  The end results of Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing is heavily reliant on ink quality, technique and heat.

Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing

Companies that are launching their own line of t-shirts and are starting on a shoestring budget often turn to Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing because of the low cost of entry.  Unlike screen printing that requires custom screens to be created for each color, and where the number of colors heavily influences the price, Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing has virtually no setup, and the number of colors is irrelevant to the pricing.

The design work for each project begins at the concept stage, moves into the computer using standard graphic design software, and in minutes, a brilliantly colored t-shirt is created.

Many start up companies consider getting into sublimation and doing everything in-house, and there are some compelling offers out there for desktop sublimation set ups.  The issue that most start-up companies don’t consider is that one of the distinguishing factors of Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing is the “all over” printing aspect.  100% of all desktop sublimation setups limit the user to a square or rectangular print field that is smaller than the overall garment.  This means that while you can sublimate on a budget, you can’t possibly cover the entire garment front and back with a desktop setup.

Serious Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing operations have massive heat machines as big as your car that are required to print all over the garment on the front and the back.

Another consideration is that Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing requires a 100% white garment to begin.  The t-shirts that you’ve seen are likely not all white, and that’s because the printer of that t-shirt changed the color from white to whatever colors were required in the design.

With a desktop setup you will be limited to a mostly white shirt, with sublimation prints in small areas.

If you are interested in launching your own line of sublimated t-shirts or you are interested in Dye Sublimation T Shirt Printing in general, please consider giving us a call (908) 806-8337 or email us.

Dye Sublimation has dramatically increased in popularity in the last 5 years.  Most of the new lines of t-shirts that are hitting the market from small start-up companies are being printed using the Dye Sublimation process.  Wholesale Sublimation printing is a key component for these start-ups.  Dye Sublimation involves using specialized opaque inks and heat to fuse high quality images or designs into fabric and other polyester substrates.  Dye Sublimation will only work on 100% polyester fabrics or substrates, or a fabric or substrate with a high concentration of polyester.  Cousins of polyester like Rayon, Nylon, Satin and Spandex also work well for Sublimation Printing.

When searching for Wholesale Sublimation partners, small start-up companies need to be careful of selecting the right partner.

Wholesale Sublimation

When searching for the best Wholesale Sublimation partner to help launch your new line of t-shirts consider these things:

1. Will they create prototypes for you i.e. one of a kind to wear test and show off

2. Do they have low minimum orders 25 per run?

3. Can they provide fast turn around time within 2 weeks.

4.  Will your Wholesale Sublimation partner collaborate with you?

5.  Does your Wholesale Sublimation partner have patience and time to talk to you?

If you are launching a brand new t-shirt line, sublimation is a great option.  Screen printing works well and looks great, but for small run launch, sublimation is going to enable you to get an amazing print product and keep your launch costs low.

If you are looking for a high quality Wholesale Sublimation partner, we would be very interested in talking with you.  We are start-up friendly and are very flexible, which makes launching your new line of sublimated t-shirts a breeze.  Please consider giving us a call (908) 806-8337 or email us.
