Promo questions

What is the difference between screen printing and embroidery?

Screen printing presses ink onto fabric and suits bold graphics and larger runs. Embroidery stitches thread into the fabric for a textured, long-lasting logo.

What can Vesco embroider?

Promotional clothing and team apparel for contractors, businesses, schools and organizations.

Do I need artwork to order embroidery?

If you have a logo file, send it. If not, our design team can help prepare your artwork.

What is screen printing?

Screen printing presses ink through a stencil onto fabric, creating bold, vivid graphics.

Is screen printing good for large orders?

It is a strong fit for larger runs of bold designs. For detailed artwork or small quantities, DTF or DTG printing may suit better, and we will recommend the best method.

What do DTF and DTG mean?

DTG is direct-to-garment printing, where ink is applied directly to the fabric. DTF is direct-to-film printing, where the design is printed on a film and heat-applied to the garment.

Which should I choose, DTF or DTG?

Both handle detailed, multi-color designs. We will recommend the better fit based on your garment, design and quantity.

What apparel printing methods do you offer?

Embroidery, screen printing, and DTF or DTG printing.

What are the most common promotional products for businesses?

Drinkware, office items, trade show giveaways and contractor promotional tools are popular because people use them every day.

How do I choose a promotional product?
