SCREEN PRINTING & HEAT TRANSFER FAQ's

WHAT DO YOU PRINT?
Pretty much anything that can be laid flat (within reason!). Mostly shirts, totes, packaging, posters etc but we like a challenge so if you have some cool or mad (or both) ideas then hit us up.


WHAT IS YOUR MINIMUM ORDER QUANTITY?
There is a minimum order quantity of 10 units on things like tees and totes. Please be aware that a lot of the cost involved in screen printing is in the set up so small quantities get pretty pricey and the more units you order the more the price will come down. We can do less units on specific custom jobs though so just email and ask!


HOW DO I GET A QUOTE?
You can submit your request here or email us at info@kin-der.co. Try give us as much info as possible and, of course, hit us up with questions if you have them! Once all the details are thrashed out we will issue you with a final quote.


HOW DO I PAY?
If you are happy with the final quote we will then invoice you. On the invoice there will be a payment link to pay via bank transfer or paypal.


WHAT ARE YOUR TURNAROUND TIMES?
Typically 7 to 10 working days after payment and artwork is received and signed off. We will not order any stock or start work on a job until payment is received in full. Please take into account shipping times as well. If you need something in a rush please let us know and we can always see what's possible.


WHAT ARE MY GARMENT OPTIONS?
We like to use Continental or Stanley/Stella garments where possible. They are affordable, sustainable, eco-friendly and have a really good range of colours. We can get most brands though so if you have something specific in mind let us know. We are always happy to advise if you need, every job has its own special requirements so we can always give you guidance and options.


WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM PRINT SIZE?
Currently it's 28cm x 38cm simply due to our set up and what is practical for our studio space.


HOW SHOULD I SUPPLY ARTWORK?
If possible your artwork should be print ready in vector format and sized exactly how you want it. We do accept other file types (no less than 300dpi) but this usually means we have to do some editing and preparation work to make the image right for printing. If there is excessive work to be done on your design we simply charge an hourly rate for this.


WHAT COLOURS CAN I USE?
We can mix pantone colours if you have specific requirements and need to get an exact colour match. Please note that printing onto dark fabrics means we need to use a white underbase which is quoted as an additional colour and screen set up.


WHAT INK DO YOU USE?
We, almost exclusively, use water based Permaset inks on fabric. You can find out why here.


CAN YOU MAKE ME A MOCK UP IMAGE FOR MY SOCIALS?
Sure. We include this free of charge as part of the job.


WHAT ABOUT OTHER PRINT POSITIONS?
We can print pretty much anywhere on a garment within reason, including sleeves and inside neck tags,


CAN I USE MULTIPLE GARMENT COLOURS?
Yep. The design and ink colour needs to stay the same though.


WHAT ABOUT SHIPPING?
We are based in Glossop so if you are nearby then feel free to collect your order. If we are shipping you a parcel we use Parcelforce and we'll email you a confirmation tracking code once it's left here.
