Are you ordering screen prints for a group, family, or business? This article shares some of the top tips to get a great end product with Launchmark screen printing service.
Pay Attention To:
- The Size of the Screen Print – Keep in mind that even though extra-large screens can be added to fabrics, it might make the clothing uncomfortable to wear. The rule of thumb is to keep the art simple and clear for the viewer. Advances in screen printing technology allow for more detailed and complex designs without compromising comfort.
- Color Choices – Some colors just look better together. Launchmark presents previews of how the finished product will look before completing the assignment, achieved via simulated models on the computer. While we work with a variety of colors and gradients, remember that simple designs often stand out more effectively.
- Materials – The best fabric for screen prints is generally 100% cotton, known for its compatibility with screen printing inks and durability. These can be purchased from Launchmark or through bulk order retailers. The more orders placed, the lower the rate per unit. Eco-friendly and sustainable fabric options have also become popular and are available for environmentally conscious choices.
- A Prime Example – Inspired by a design you love? Replicate similar colors and designs by snapping a photo and sending it to us. Our talented designers can help you create a similar look while maintaining originality.

Why Does Quality Matter?
Consider:

- Longevity – Business-wear or school uniforms are worn year-round and undergo numerous washes. Quality screen prints endure longer, making them a worthwhile investment.
