All Over Print Shirts

Creating All Over Print Shirts is done using one of two available methods.  The first method is called Custom Dye Sublimation and the second is called Jumbo Screen Printing or often called All Over Screen Printing.

Using the first method of Custom Dye Sublimation to create All Over Print Shirts, the designer has two options.  The first option is to engage with a cut and sew provider to cut panels, dye sublimate the panels and then sew them into the finished garment.  This method is preferred as it leaves no blank areas and offers a true seam to seam print.  These types of All Over Print Shirts are often found in retail stores, used for sports jerseys and look very bright, crisp and polished.

Designers also have a lower cost option of creating All Over Print Shirts using custom dye sublimation printing.  This method involves custom dye sublimating an already completed item.  For example a T-Shirt, Pair of Socks, Pillow Case etc … something that was already sewn into the final product can be used for a “post sewn” custom dye sublimation project. 

Using existing garment s for custom dye sublimation can produce amazing results, at a fraction of the cost of cut and sew sublimation, some blank areas may occur as a result of creasing that can’t be avoided in the printing process, but these unique nuances are often “cool” for the consumer and for the designer, a trade off on cost vs. coverage makes this method a good second choice to cut and sew.

The second method of creating All Over Print Shirts is to us e the process of Jumbo Screen Printing or Over Sized Screen Printing.  Using this method to create All Over Print Shirts is often preferred when the color requirements are less than 8 per design and the fabric choice is something other than polyester.

All Over Screen Printing

All Over Screen Printing

AMBRO Manufacturing is a privately held and operated garment, textile and fabric decorating company, located in Flemington, NJ.  Our specialty is All Over Screen Printing.

All Over Screen Printing

There are quite a few screen printers in the industry that promote All Over Screen Printing capabilities.  One of the challenges of deciding which All Over Screen Printing partner is the best, is to define and understand the definition of "all over".

Since the industry itself does not have a standard definition for "all over" it's up to you to decide what is a jumbo or over sized print and what isn't. 

Standard screen printing equipment may enable you to print at 14" x 16" and some larger presses may enable you to print into the 20" x 20" range.  AMBRO Manufacturing boasts a 40" x 40" print area. 

With a print area this large, AMBRO Manufacturing can cover the entire surface area of a T-Shirt with a design.  This includes, seam to seam screen printing, screen printing on the neck and the sleeves of a T-Shirt.

In addition to our oversized All Over Screen Printing area, AMBRO Manufacturing also has an in-house machine shop that enables us to custom tool for virtually any screen size.  What this means to our customers is that there is virtually no limit on how large we can print.

When considering an All Over Screen Printing project, there are some details that you should discuss with your screen printer.  These details include: How many colors can be used, which design elements can be printed where and most importantly, the fact that each size shirt in your order will have to have a separate set of screens.

Unlike traditional screen printing where there may be two sets of screens, one for youth sizes and one for adult sizes, with All Over Screen Printing, you will need a separate screen or screens for each size shirt in your order.
