Screen printing in bulk is one of the smartest ways to get branded apparel for your business, school, or team. When you order many shirts with the same design, the price per shirt drops and the quality stays high. Here are seven benefits to know before your next order.
1. Lower Cost Per Shirt
Every screen printing job has setup work, such as making screens and lining up the press. When you order in bulk, that setup cost is split across every shirt. As a result, 200 shirts cost much less per piece than 24 shirts. Our bulk t-shirt pricing guide shows how this works.
2. Bold, Bright Color
Screen printing lays down a thick layer of ink. Therefore, colors look vivid on both light and dark fabric. In addition, we can match your brand’s Pantone colors for a consistent look.
3. Prints That Last
Cured screen printing ink holds up through years of washing. So, your shirts keep looking good long after the event, which means more brand exposure for you.
4. Consistent Branding on Every Piece
Every shirt in a screen printing in bulk order comes off the same screens. As a result, the 1st shirt and the 500th shirt look the same. That consistency matters for uniforms, team gear, and company events.
5. Works on Many Products
Screen printing is not just for t-shirts. For example, you can print custom hoodies, tank tops, sweatshirts, and tote bags with the same design. That makes it easy to build a full branded kit.
6. Walking Billboards for Your Brand
Branded shirts turn employees, customers, and fans into walking ads. In fact, one ASI study found giveaway shirts earn hundreds of impressions each month. Read more in our article on why businesses invest in promotional products.
7. Fast Production for Large Orders
Once the screens are ready, the press prints quickly. Therefore, large orders finish faster than with one-at-a-time methods. At Bulk Custom Shirts, most orders take about two weeks, plus free UPS Ground shipping. See our turnaround time page for details.
Tips to Get the Most From Screen Printing in Bulk
- Keep your design to a few ink colors, because each color adds cost.
- Collect sizes early, so you order the right amounts.
- Choose a blank that fits your audience, such as the Gildan Softstyle G640.
- Also, order extras in common sizes for new members or staff.
