Expert screen printing solutions for corporate clients across Malaysia since 2017
Silk screen printing, also known as serigraphy or screen printing, is a traditional printing technique that uses a mesh screen to transfer ink onto a substrate (such as fabric, paper, or plastic). At Tshirtprint2u, we specialize in high-quality silk screen printing for corporate apparel and promotional products throughout Malaysia.
Silk screen printing offers superior durability and vibrant color reproduction compared to digital printing methods. It's particularly effective for bulk orders, making it the ideal choice for corporate uniforms, event merchandise, and promotional apparel where longevity and professional appearance are paramount.
The process involves creating a stencil (screen) for each color in the design. Ink is then pressed through the screen onto the garment using a squeegee. Each color requires a separate screen and application, making the setup more involved but resulting in exceptionally vibrant, opaque prints that withstand repeated washing and wear.
Our state-of-the-art facility in Kuala Lumpur is equipped with automatic screen printing machines capable of handling large-volume orders efficiently while maintaining consistent quality across every piece. We use only premium-quality inks including plastisol, water-based, and discharge inks to meet various fabric requirements and desired effects.
A meticulous 7-step quality-controlled process ensures exceptional results
Our graphic designers prepare your artwork for printing, separating colors and optimizing for screen printing. We ensure your brand colors match Pantone standards for accuracy.
A mesh screen is coated with photosensitive emulsion for each color. Your design is then burned onto the screen using UV light exposure.
We precisely match colors to your brand specifications using Pantone color systems. Inks are mixed to exact formulations for consistency.
Each garment is inspected and prepared. Screens are aligned on the printing press to ensure perfect registration of all colors.
Ink is applied through each screen onto the garment using precision squeegees. Each color layer is applied separately and allowed to flash dry between applications.
Printed garments pass through a conveyor dryer at specific temperatures to cure the ink, ensuring maximum durability and wash resistance.

Common questions about silk screen printing in Malaysia
We recommend a minimum of 100 pieces for silk screen printing to be cost-effective due to setup costs. However, we can accommodate smaller quantities with adjusted pricing. For very small orders (1-12 pieces), DTF printing may be more suitable.
Properly cured screen prints typically withstand 100+ washes without significant fading or cracking. The longevity depends on ink type, curing process, and washing methods. We use industrial curing equipment to ensure maximum durability for all our prints.
While possible through halftone techniques, silk screen printing is not ideal for photographic images with gradients. For photographic designs, we recommend DTF or sublimation printing, which can reproduce detailed images more effectively.
Silk screen printing works well on most fabrics including 100% cotton, cotton-polyester blends, fleece, and performance fabrics. Different ink types are used for different materials - our team selects the appropriate ink for your specific garment to ensure optimal results.
