FAQ Printing tips

Printing tips

What are the types of printing?

Screen Printing

Screen printing involves pushing ink through a mesh stencil to create long-lasting, bold, and vibrant designs, ideal for crisp logos and solid colors.

Transfer Printing

Transfer printing uses heat and pressure to apply your design onto the tote’s surface, kind of like a high-quality decal. It’s ideal for detailed artwork or full-color designs with a smooth finish.

Embroidery

Embroidery stitches your design directly into the fabric for a textured, durable, and upscale look. It’s perfect for logos or text that need to stand out with a premium finish.

UNSURE OF WHAT PRINTING IS RIGHT FOR YOU?


If your artwork uses 1–4 solid colors, we recommend screen printing for a clean, crisp look and a smooth feel. For designs with lots of colors, gradients, or photos, transfer printing is the way to go. Want a more elevated finish? Embroidery adds texture and depth, perfect for simple designs with just a few colors in a smaller area.
