Screen Printing

Screen printing is a unique process in which ink is moved through mesh to the material of a garment, according to a design made with the help of a blocking stencil.

A squeegee blade is moved across a screen to fill the open areas of the stencil with ink. This is called a flood stroke.

The print stroke then causes the ink to be pushed through the stencil along a pre-determined line of contact, bringing the design to life on the fabric.

Only one colour is printed at a time, but several screens can be used to create a design of multiple colours.
