      Screen printing (artificial temperature)

      Advantages:

      Special effects of a wide range of processes, such as puff printing, crack printing, etc.; Colorful and durable, suitable for printing on dark fabrics such as black and so on.

      Disadvantages:

      Multi-color patterns and multi-color gradients are difficult to achieve; Plate-making and color matching are time-consuming and cost-effective for small batch production.

      DTG (Technology Efficiency)

      Advantages:

      Support photo-level details and unlimited color gradients, especially suitable for complex patterns and personalized designs; No need to make molds, MOQ 1 pic, which can quickly respond to market changes and customization needs; Water-based ink reduces pollution, and production on demand reduces inventory waste

      Disadvantages:

      The color of dark fabrics is not bright enough, and special advance treatment is required for special fabrics. The washing resistance of printed matter without special treatment is slightly worse than that of screen printing, and the color fastness needs to be improved.

      But, why can't the two coexist?

      The brand can simultaneously use two technologies, such as using digital direct printing for market testing and screen printing for mass production of popular items.

      Of course, for a logo, digital direct printing can handle complex pattern bases, and screen printing can add special effects (such as hot stamping), balancing efficiency and creativity.
