How does screen printing work?
We screen print these bags because it produces a really good quality image.
To print your logo onto the carriers we create you a silk ‘screen’.
Your screen is purchased on your first order (covered by the one-off set-up charge).
The screen is kept for your re-orders. Our screen printing service is an ‘over-print’ service.
This means that the bag is already made and the design is printed onto the finished bag.
The maximum print area for this bag is 28cm x 20cm.
Your agreed design is transferred onto a sheet of acetate.
It is then transferred onto the mesh screen using a photosensitive block and UV light- to create your screen.
Your bag is placed on the screen table and your choice of ink is poured over the screen which sits on top.
A squeegee then glides across the screen to cover the mesh with ink.
The paper that is exposed to the ink produces your design on the bag.
