Screen Printing Services

Screen printing 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 fill blade or squeegee is moved across the screen stencil, forcing or pumping ink into the mesh openings for transfer during the squeegee stroke. Like other printing process screen printing allows for color matching, multiple colors and detailed graphics. High Detailed graphics, such as photographs, can be done with screen printing but digital printing is better in most situations.Various inks can be used for differing environments and materials. It is important to consider the long term environment when considering the use of screen printing and determining which inks to use.
