Water Ink Printing

Water Ink Printing

As long as screen printing has been around, the techniques are constantly changing. The use of inks also changes with texture and consistency. When you walk into stores and you see all the printed tees, odds are that they are a thicker ink. In some cases you will see a shirt that has a very thin ink on it, almost like if the shirt did not get printed. In those scenarios it was using water ink printing.

Water Ink Printing

There are many screen printing companies around, but there are few that do water ink printing. AMBRO Manufacturing is the one place that can do this type of printing. Water ink printing is a bit more complex than the normal plastisol printing. Every color that we have has to be mixed with a formula to get the color in ink form.

There are two types of water ink printing that can be done; acrylic and discharge. Discharge is a type of water ink printing. Using this method, we would actually bleach out the design on the shirt. This works well on dark colors only. Acrylic ink is the type of water based ink that we use. Both ways of printing will use produce a very light feel to the ink on the shirt.

Custom Screen Printing Prices

Not only is there pricing on our website for traditional screen printing and jumbo screen printing but the pricing for sublimation and embroidery is on there as well. If the pricing is a little confusing ill break it down for you. For custom screen printing all you need to start off is a minimum of 12 pieces. So say your artwork calls for 2 colors and you wanted to get it printed on a white t-shirt. For a 2 color on a white shirt it would be $3.00 a shirt plus the cost of the t-shirt. There is also a screen set up charge of $25.00 and since you are getting 2 colors it would be 2 set up charges. We also have an artwork charge of $50.00 unless you can supply your artwork in a vector file. 

The more shirts you order the cheaper the screen printing will cost. So say you were getting 50 shirts the price for screen printing per shirt would be $1.85 plus the cost of the shirt. Now if you wanted your screen printing done on a dark shirt, like a black or navy the price would go up one because of the under base.
