Services
Screen Printing
Our industrial screen printing service produces durable, vibrant designs on clothing using specialist inks that bond permanently with fabric fibres. We handle complex multi-colour prints up to 8 spot colours or full photographic prints using 4-colour process technology. Clients receive free artwork mockups and benefit from our 18 years of technical expertise ensuring perfect reproduction of logos and designs on t-shirts, hoodies and workwear.
Embroidery
Professional embroidery service adds sophisticated branding to corporate wear and sportswear using up to 12 thread colours. Our digitisation process converts logos into precise stitch patterns that create lasting impressions on shirts, polos and outerwear. With pricing starting at 1.50 per garment for simple designs, we combine traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to deliver premium results suitable for both small and bulk orders.
Vinyl Transfer
Cost-effective vinyl transfer printing creates sharp, wash-resistant designs for sports kits and promotional wear. This method excels at producing individual names, numbers and simple graphics on light or dark garments. Available in multiple finishes including metallic and fluorescent, our heat transfer system ensures quick turnaround times with no setup costs, making it ideal for small runs and urgent orders requiring immediate production.
Custom T-Shirts
We offer extensive custom t-shirt options from basic value ranges starting at 2.15 to premium ringspun cotton variants. With 69 available colours and sizes up to 5XL, our Gildan and Awdis branded t-shirts serve as perfect canvases for screen printing, embroidery or vinyl transfers. Clients benefit from bulk pricing discounts and our artwork specialists who ensure perfect design reproduction on every order.
Workwear Branding
Specialist branding service for workwear including shirts, polos and waterproof jackets. We apply corporate logos using durable methods suitable for professional environments, from embroidered chest logos on oxford shirts to screen printed designs on high-visibility jackets. Our solutions combine practicality with professional presentation, serving sectors ranging from hospitality to engineering with branded uniforms that maintain durability through regular wear and washing.

We offer pre-production samples including colour swatches and mockups, though embroidery samples require advance request due to additional preparation requirements.

We received these on Monday. Thank you for getting them to us so swiftly. We very much like the way you manage to get the intricate Cunard logo right. We have used other suppliers in the past who don't do that as well. The good news is that now you are set up as a supplier in our system!
