Below are our top 10 secrets to successful tee shirt printing in Singapore—shaped by experience and trusted by thousands of satisfied customers.
1. Begin with a Clear Purpose
Before you get started on the design, ask yourself: what’s the T-shirt for? At Ark Industries, we’ve printed tees for product launches, charity events, corporate wear, and everything in between. Understanding your purpose helps us recommend the most suitable materials, printing techniques, and design layout. We believe in goal-oriented printing—because it truly makes a difference.
2. Select the Right Fabric
Different printing methods work best with specific fabrics. Cotton is soft and breathable, ideal for screen printing, while polyester blends are excellent for sublimation. At Ark Industries, we offer a wide range of premium quality tees from brands like Adidas and Under Armour. Whether you’re looking for comfort, moisture-wicking performance, or stretch, we’ll match you with the perfect fabric to suit your needs.
3. Keep the Design Simple and Impactful
While intricate designs may look impressive on screen, they can lose clarity when printed. Our in-house design team works closely with you to optimize your artwork for legibility, scale, and placement. We’ve seen firsthand how a clean, bold design can elevate a basic T-shirt into a powerful branding tool.
4. Select the Right Printing Method
Not all printing techniques are created equal. At Ark Industries, we offer a variety of methods tailored to your specific needs:
- Silkscreen Printing: Cost-effective for large-volume orders.
- Heat Transfer Printing: Ideal for small batches and full-color images.
- Direct-to-Garment (DTG): Perfect for intricate designs on cotton T-shirts.
- Embroidery: Adds texture and a premium finish.
We’ll guide you in choosing the best method based on your artwork and the fabric selected, ensuring quality and visual impact every time. Explore vibrant designs and custom options for personalized apparel and print tee shirt in Singapore.
5. Supply High-Quality Artwork
Blurry or pixelated prints usually stem from low-resolution images. We always recommend using vector files (such as .AI or .EPS) or high-resolution PNG files with transparent backgrounds. Our design team will be happy to assist with optimizing your artwork, ensuring every detail is print-ready.
6. Consider Print Placement Carefully
Design placement plays a major role in both visibility and overall aesthetic. Some of the most popular print areas include:
- Front chest
- Full front or back
- Sleeves
- Hem tags
We’ll provide mock-ups of various placements so you can visualize the final product before printing. The placement of your design sets the mood – whether you are going for formal, cool or playful.
7. Order a Sample First
We always recommend doing a test print before placing a large order. At Ark Industries, we offer sample services to ensure that colours, sizing, and finishing match your expectations. This simple step can help avoid costly mistakes.
8. Consider Quantity and Budget
Printing costs can vary based on order volume, print method, and design complexity. At Ark Industries, we work flexibly to suit your budget—whether you’re ordering 20 or 2,000 shirts. Bulk orders enjoy more competitive pricing, and our team is committed to delivering exceptional value without compromising on quality.
9. Don’t Forget Sizes and Fit
One of the most common challenges is underestimating the right size mix. We guide you in selecting the best size distribution tailored to your users, whether it’s a corporate team or retail customers. Our catalogues include slim-fit, oversized, and unisex styles from top global brands, ensuring everyone finds their perfect fit.
10. Work with an Experienced Partner
Probably the most important tip: choose a trusted and experienced printing partner. At Ark Industries, we combine decades of industry know-how, high quality materials, and personalized service to bring your vision to reality. We’ve proudly served thousands of brands, schools, government agencies, and sports teams—delivering consistent quality and on time deliveries.
