Screen Printing and Embroidery Methods:
Screen printing is a method by which the
items are printed on with ink. Setup charges will include color ink
matching, making a screen (stencil) for each color, and art creation.
Embroidery is a method by which the items are stitched with colored
thread to create type or images. Setup charges will include digitizing
the art (making a tape), and art creation. Usually there is no charge
for additional colors up to 7.
Setup Charges:
Setup charges are for creating new screens,
tapes, dies, etc. These are pieces which the equipment actually doing
the imprinting requires. There are somewhat complex tasks, equipment,
and materials utilized to create these pieces.
Once your art, dies, screens, tapes, films,
etc. are made. We can imprint or embroider from them in the future without
incurring these types of charges again.
Setup charges vary depending on the imprintinting
method, complexity of the art, and number of colors being imprinted.
Call us for details.
Freight charges are additional. No returns
accepted on imprinted products.
