Silk screening, also called screen printing, according to Wikipedia, is a printing technique that uses a woven mesh to support an ink-blocking stencil. The attached stencil forms open areas of mesh that transfer ink or other printable materials which can be pressed through the mesh as a sharp-edged image onto a substrate. A roller or squeegee is moved across the screen stencil, forcing or pumping ink past the threads of the woven mesh in the open areas.
The advantage to using silk screening is that you can print larger quantities of wholesale baby clothes at relatively less cost than other types of printing. It is not ideal for smaller quantities because this is not as cost effective; however, once we have made a silk screening negative for the blank kids clothes of your choice, the set-up cost is free the next time you print with us! We often receive repeat business because baby fans like you are happy with our quality and prices.
