It is the least expensive and most common T-Shirt printing method for mass production. Using multiple stencils, unlimited colors can be printed producing clear and bright finishes.

98 Designs Embroidery Services, offer a wide spectrum of colors with specific pantone (up to 90% closeness). Due to the need of preparing stencils for multiple colors, prices are thus very dependent on the number of colours.
