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.

Oversized Screen Printing

Oversized Screen Printing

One of the most impressive types of silk screen printing is Oversized Screen Printing.  With no strict definition of what exactly “Oversized” means, it is generally accepted that Oversized Screen Printing is defined by any print that can extend the entire length of the shirt from the bottom hem to the neck and onto the sleeves.

Oversized Screen Printing

Some people will mistake Oversized Screen Printing for Custom Dye Sublimation Printing, the two technologies are vastly different.

With custom dye sublimation printing, specialized inks, printers and industrial heat and pressure are used to create a precision dying method to decorate a garment in 360 degrees.  Most custom dye sublimation is done in a cut and sew environment but it can be accomplished on already sewn garments with a high degree of success.

Oversized Screen Printing is not custom dye sublimation, but rather traditional screen printing, but supersized.  Specialized jumbo screen printing presses and jumbo screens are created to provide superior all-over-shirt coverage.  Standard screen printing inks are used, regular garments are used, it’s the equipment that gets bigger to accommodate an all over print.

Most screen printing shops will promote their large printing sizes, but be careful when selecting and all over print provider to ensure that you specific print dimensions are being met.  Most screen printers do not have the same capabilities as AMBRO Manufacturing, a true seam to seam screen printing partner.

Printing in an Oversized Screen Printing scenario can lead to some challenges of matching seams, especially when wrapping a print around from the front to the back of a T-Shirt.  When working with experienced Jumbo Screen Printing companies like AMBRO Manufacturing, you can rest at ease that your Jumbo Screen Printing job will be done properly the first time.
