Screen printing vs embroidery, which one is better for what you need?

by Aaa Cas Auditors & Business Consultant in Dubai

When it comes to venturing into a new venture, the launch of a new product or service, or simply to reinforce the presence and image of our business in front of captive and potential customers, promotional items are great allies, mainly caps, vests, t-shirts, scarves and any garment that the user can wear, since by wearing it they become ambassadors of your brand, validating in the eyes of those who see them that your offer is good and worth choosing you.

 

So if you have decided to manufacture one or several batches of these products to make the whole world know you, or to have your own collaborators proudly wear your colors and logo through the use of a uniform, screen printing and embroidery are the two main options between which you must choose the technique to capture your message on the garments.

 

Although both options can produce quality work, each has its advantages and disadvantages. Generally, embroidery is considered a long-lasting option, because through the threads it prints entire words and logos that are difficult to blur, while Embroidery and Screen Printing Services is more useful for dressing large spaces, such as canvases, or batches of thousands of T-shirts.

 

Deciding whether embroidery or screen printing is right for you depends primarily on your purposes, and then your budget. To help you in this task, we list the main pros and cons of each of them:

 

  • Embroidery: We can define it as the process of sewing a logo or image on a fabric. Embroidery is a great way to personalize your organization's apparel, as it is clean and crisp, projecting a more professional image. Its durability earns it extra points, as if embroidered correctly, the work will not fade or snag, even after repeated washings.
  • You must take into account that the embroidery becomes a permanent part of the fabric of the clothing or garment where it is worked. So despite its benefits, this is not the ideal option for all projects, mainly because it tends to be more expensive than screen printing, since you usually pay by the number of threads used. In fact, this is the reason why most organizations turn to screen printing for large projects.
  • Screen Printing: This technique uses ink to print your logo from a screen onto the item you want to personalize. When done correctly, screen printing is very durable and looks good. Unlike embroidery, which can only be done on fabric, screen printing can be done on a huge variety of materials, for example, to put your company logo on tote bags, coffee cups, t-shirts, balls or pens. . In addition, screen printing is less expensive than embroidery, so as we said before, it is ideal for working in large volumes.

 

On the other hand, although screen printing can be done on a wide variety of materials, it does not work well on those that are thick or fuzzy. In addition, these works take a little longer to be ready, compared to embroidery projects, since to do screen printing, a personalized screen of the image to be printed must be made for your design. It is mainly this step that can take some time.

 

As we have reviewed, each project, company and objectives are different. Both Custom embroidery Dubai  and screen printing offer noble benefits, so the final decision will depend on the combination of these three factors within your organization.
