The choice of printing technique on a T-shirt

The marking method is selected on the basis of several guidelines. An employee of the printing house where you will carry out the order will ask for it. Be prepared to specify:

Material of clothing (e.g. polyester, cotton) and type of shirts (e.g. polo, long-sleeve) on which you want to create prints. This is a very important question, because not all techniques can be implemented, e.g. on cotton.

 Colors of ordered clothes.

Outlays (it is good to immediately determine how many t-shirts you will need. Some techniques, กางเกง holdem e.g. screen printing, are cost-effective at larger volumes, while others, e.g. DTG, are recommended for individual pieces).
