Screen Printing
Our specialty since 1982, screen printing delivers vibrant, long-lasting prints on t-shirts, sweatshirts, uniforms, and bags. Using premium inks and top-of-the-line equipment, we produce high-quality results for both small and large orders. This method ensures excellent color opacity and durability, making it ideal for businesses seeking professional branded apparel that withstands repeated washing.
Embroidery

Perfect for corporate uniforms and promotional merchandise, this service combines durability with sophisticated presentation, offering a premium alternative to printed designs for businesses seeking professional branding solutions.
Direct to Film Printing
DTF technology enables full-color, high-detail designs on various fabrics through transfer film application. This method excels with intricate artwork and photographic images, making it ideal for smaller production runs. The process maintains design integrity while offering flexibility in fabric types, providing a versatile solution for complex designs that require vibrant color reproduction and fine detail retention.
Sublimation Printing
Specializing in edge-to-edge designs on polyester garments and hard goods, sublimation creates permanent, fade-resistant prints. This technique works perfectly for vibrant team uniforms, custom mugs, and signage with unlimited color options. The chemical process bonds ink directly to materials, ensuring durable results that maintain visual impact through repeated use and washing.

Our in-house design team offers comprehensive creative services from concept to production-ready files. We specialize in logo creation, vector conversion, and design optimization for print. With expertise in color separation and file preparation, we ensure artwork translates perfectly to final products, helping clients transform ideas into market-ready branded materials while maintaining technical precision for optimal printing results.

Phil and the rest of the team at the Art Department are amazing to work with. Their work is always spot on and it's done in a timely manner. Been working with them for all 3 of our businesses needs and will continue to do so.

I had The Art Dept. screen up about a dozen shirts for me. A friend's friend did the design. There were a few small changes I was hoping to do to make the design "pop". The owner at The Art Dept. understood my needs and made the change to the design. Came out awesome, and also,the quality of the t-shirts they provided were great. Had a chance to look around in their store. They can pretty much provide anything you want to have screened or labeled, for any event. Never knew this resource was here in the South Bay. Highly recommend and will use again!
