Heat transfer for speed and short runs, screen printing for scale — we will tell you which your job wants.
Service 08 / Delta Media
Printing and embroidery on garments is a daily occurrence here. Heat transfer for short runs, screen printing for scale, and embroidery where the mark is better stitched than printed.

Heat transfer, screen printing and embroidery on uniforms, kits, poloshirts, caps and workwear — from our own catalogue or from your material.
T-shirt printing splits into two distinct processes. Heat transfer is the more economical and can be printed from almost any image you supply. Screen printing gives the better result on larger runs, but the artwork has to be built in vector.
If you bring in your own material to be decorated we cannot guarantee it — our own catalogue garments are made to be decorated on, and a garment we have never handled before can behave in a heat press in ways nobody can predict.
Heat transfer for speed and short runs, screen printing for scale — we will tell you which your job wants.
Thread colours matched to your palette and stitching that adds depth, on wearables and non-wearables alike.
Branded Clothing runs through the same five steps as everything else we make — with the same team at each one. See the full process
01
The goal, the audience and the deadline, agreed together.
02
Concepts, layout and artwork, developed and refined with you.
03
Colour, stock and finish seen and approved before anything runs.
04
Print, wrap, embroidery or fabrication — whichever the approved job needs.
05
Fitted, mounted or delivered, depending on what was made.
Heat transfer is for short runs, any image, and garments that are all different. Screen printing is for large quantities of the same design and needs vector artwork. Embroidery is for polos, caps and workwear that should look like a uniform. For anything in between, tell us the quantity and the artwork and we will say which process the job needs.
Yes. Heat transfer needs no screens, so small orders are practical, from a dozen team shirts down to a single shirt for a leaving present. Screen printing has a set-up cost for each colour, which is why it pays off on larger runs.
Yes. When every garment carries a different name, number or department, heat transfer is the right process, because each piece can be printed individually.
You can, but we cannot guarantee the result. Our own catalogue garments are made to be decorated; a garment we have never handled can react unpredictably in a heat press, and that risk stays with you.
Vector artwork, because each colour is separated onto its own screen. A photograph or an old JPEG of a logo cannot be separated and will need redrawing first, so allow time for that before any deadline.
Yes. Thread colours are matched to your palette, and the stitching gives a depth a print does not. Very fine detail is the limit, because below a certain size a stitched shape stops holding together.
