How Screen Printing Holds Up in the Texas Heat

July 16, 2025

High-Temp Curing for Maximum Durability

In Houston’s heat, ink curing is essential. Proper heat curing locks the ink into fabric fibers—preventing smudging or melting when temperatures soar. We use calibrated dryers to ensure each garment receives full cure for long-lasting performance.

Ink & Fabric Synergy Matters

Squeegee-applied plastisol ink resists cracking but can get stiff under excessive heat. Soft-hand or discharge inks merge with fabric for a breathable finish that endures both weather and washing—ideal for Houston’s warm, humid climate.

Ongoing Care for Houston Wear

Recommend machine wash in cool water and air dry. Avoid hot dryers to preserve ink elasticity. Following care guidelines ensures screen prints remain vibrant despite regional climate stresses.
