Exhibit A: Sublimated Towel with the Same Number of Colors Applied,
Toronto Maple Leafs Blue and White as part of the Towel
on the front and White at the Back
Here comes Sublimation to take over screen print as it's better and less expensive at FIEL. In the recent years sublimation has grown in popularity due to the limitless Logo / Artwork display, design and color choice because the process reflects that of your everyday CYMK digital printing. You simply print your Art onto special paper and transfer it onto fabric / textile / product. Here at FIEL we offer the best pricing against the screen printing process because of our In house capabilities for low and high volumes. The only set back of sublimation is that the textile will print only on a synthetic surface and it must be White, similar to your at home printing. This also means that the reverse or back side of the textile will remain white as seen in Exhibit A. (OR there are options to Sublimate the back side also for most products)

Exhibit B: Screen Printed Towel with 1 Colors of Ink Applied,
White Ink and Toronto Maple Leafs Blue Towel
with Self Fabric Back
In the promotional industry, one of the long time popular means of decorating (advertising) for Logo / Artwork Display has been through the application of Screen Printing. IT USED TO BE the most economical in when purchasing in high volumes but it's design and color use is very limited. This is because each color is prepped with its own screen commonly resulting in additional cost per color. When you see screen printing in the promo industry, most people commonly stick to 1-4 colors to control cost. Also, due to the nature of the thickness of ink applied (most commonly used ink applied is Plastisol), it blocks the texture of the fabric surface and over time the ink will crack as seen in Exhibit B. Screen print will leave a rough feel on the garment (or any substrate).
Exhibit B: Screen Printed Towel with 1 Colors of Ink Applied,
White Ink and Toronto Maple Leafs Blue Towel with Self Fabric Back
- Screen Printing is no longer the most popular means of decorating (advertising) for Logo / Artwork Display in the Promotional Industry
- Screen Printing used to be the most economical when purchasing in high volumes but it's design and color use is very limited
- For every color, a screen is prepped commonly resulting in additional cost per color causing people to design within 1-4 colors to control cost
- Another issue lays with the thickness of ink applied (most commonly used ink applied is Plastisol) where the process blocks the texture of the fabric surface (or any substrate) and over time the ink will crack as seen in Exhibit B
