Best Fabrics for Embroidery & Screen Printing in Houston
Share
Not all shirts are created equal—learn which fabrics hold ink and thread best for Houston’s heat and wear.
Know Your Shirt Materials Before You Print
Houston’s humidity, sun, and wear-and-tear make fabric choice crucial. Here’s how to choose:
-
100% Cotton: Great for screen printing. Absorbs ink, soft feel, but can shrink.
-
Polyester: Best for athletic apparel. Holds embroidery well. Resists wrinkles and shrinkage.
-
Cotton-Poly Blends: Best of both worlds—holds shape and feels soft. Perfect for both printing and stitching.
We’ll help match your logo and purpose to the ideal fabric.
What Performs Best for Each Service?
-
Screen Printing: Cotton and blends provide smooth ink lay and vibrant colors.
-
Embroidery: Poly-rich fabrics reduce puckering and maintain tight thread definition.
We test your material choice before production to ensure long-lasting results.
