Custom Workwear & Uniform Screen Printing Coffs Harbour

Why Choose Screen Printing

Screen printing is a popular choice because it produces bold and durable prints that stand up to regular use. By applying ink directly through a fine mesh screen or stencil, the result is a clean and precise finish that can cover large areas of a garment with strong, vibrant colour. It is especially effective for simple logos or designs that use limited colours, making it a great option for uniforms, event shirts and branded merchandise.

Unlike some other decoration methods, screen printing creates a finish that feels integrated with the garment itself. This makes it comfortable to wear and long lasting even after repeated washing. For multi-colour designs, multiple screens are used, with each layer applied in sequence to achieve the final look. If your design includes gradients or photographic detail, [Digital Transfers Coffs Harbour] or [DTF Heat Transfers] may be better suited, while [Embroidery Coffs Harbour] is often preferred for a premium stitched look.

How the Process Works

At Coffs Workwear & Safety, we make it simple to get started with screen printing. All we require is a high quality vector file of your logo or design. Our team will adjust the artwork as needed to ensure it is suitable for printing.

The process involves:

• Step 1: Preparing a mesh screen (or stencil) for each colour in the design.
• Step 2: Pressing ink through the screens in sequence, with each layer applied precisely to match your artwork.
• Step 3: Curing the garment so the ink bonds properly, ensuring durability and wash resistance.

Because screen printing applies each colour separately, there is a setup fee for every screen required. Once the screens are prepared, printing larger runs becomes highly cost effective, which is why this method is often chosen for bulk orders.

Order Quantities and Pricing

Screen printing is generally suited to orders of 20 or more garments. While it can be used for smaller orders, the setup fees make it more economical when printing in bulk. The cost depends on the number of colours in your design and the total quantity of garments. The more you print, the more affordable the price per garment becomes.

This makes screen printing an excellent choice for businesses needing staff uniforms, sporting teams ordering player kits, schools producing branded apparel, or organisations preparing promotional giveaways. Combined with our wide range of in-stock workwear and boots, Coffs Workwear & Safety can supply everything you need in one place.
