T-Shirt Elephant offers a number of unique apparel printing services you will not find anywhere else online. Our commitment to quality has driven us to find the best ways to decorate apparel no matter what type of design you would like printed. The team at T-Shirt Elephant has the expertise to determine which print method is ideal for your design and ensure we use the best method to make your design look amazing on a shirt. For full-colour or photographic images we often use our Direct-to-Garment printing method or our Perma Press Vinyl method when printing on polyester garments. For larger orders and orders with solid colours, we often use Screen Printing. For any headwear and hat orders, we use embroidery as a the decoration method of choice. Whatever your design is, regardless of how many shirts your looking to order, T-Shirt Elephant has you covered.
Screen Printing is one of the earliest known methods of printing and it is still being used today to print a variety of items like apparel, signs, and even electronics. The process involves coating a mesh screen with waterproof emulsion and creating a stencil (an area of open mesh, not coated with emulsion). Ink is passed through the stencil (open mesh area), most often using a squeegee, and directly onto a substrate such as a t-shirt or any other type of garment.

Read MoreDirect to Garment Printing is one of the newest methods in existence for printing on apparel. This print method uses a specially formatted inkjet printer, which prints soft hand, water based ink, directly into the fabric of a garment. T-Shirt Elephant DTG printing uses CMYKRG ink, while most competitors only print in CMYK. In CMYKRG, the RG stands for Red and Green. By adding in the RG, our DTG prints have brighter and bolder colours then our competitors. DTG is best suited for small volume orders for spot colour images, photographic images, and full-colour images.
