1: Custom Screen Printing
Screen printing is more than one hundred years old. Along the way, it’s been perfected and at RTN Sports we have taken the process up to a notch. While we could print with traditional plastisol inks use by most local screen printers. We have created our own unique house blend. By incorporating only superior, high quality phthalate free inks along with some special additives, we are able to make your designs softer and brighter.

2: Discharge Screen Printing
Discharge screen printing is a specialty technique used in the screen printing industry to achieve a no ink feel. It results in a very soft hand and shows the garments natural fiber instead of laying a thick layer of plastisol ink on top of the garment. By itself, discharge ink removes the dye of the cotton fiber when it hits a certain temperature. Discharge works with a variety of different brands and styles of shirts or other garments, with some styles and colors having stronger results than others.

3: Water Base Screen Printing
Water Based Screen Printing is similar to discharge screen printing, but more environmentally friendly. After a run of prints, screens can be cleaned with just water, and inks can go down the drain, being no more harmful than mild household cleaning products. Our inks are not toxic, do not contain lead or any heavy metals, nor do they contain any ozone-depleting chemicals (CFC’s, HCFC’s, etc.) or volatile solvents.

4: Sublimation
Guaranteed to never fade, crack or peel, our cut and sew sublimation program consistently delivers superior results. As custom apparel becomes a high-end brand builder, we count this option as one of our best sellers. This high-end, polished, quality look has no restrictions. We manufacture all sublimation orders from scratch, so the sky’s the limit. Your design colors are guaranteed to be vibrant and you will never have to worry about inconsistencies over the garments seams.

5: Embriodery
There was a time when embroidered polo shirts reigned as the corporate uniform. Today, embroidered t shirts have cut a chunk out of the custom apparel market share. If you’re wondering what embroidery on t shirts looks like – think thousands of vibrant threads, tightly constructed together, creating a 3-D design that can detail graphic, logos and messaging. The most cited reason for introducing embroidered tee shirts into a marketing mix is to simplify a design to upgrade apparel for corporate representatives or give graphics more texture.
Examples of Shirt Embroidery

T-shirt embroidery can be used as a primary process or added after screen printing is done. For hats it is generally the primary focus. The process of putting embroidery on shirts requires a digitized file that breaks the graphic into thousands of stitches to be sewn by the machine. The more stitches in your design, the more your embroidered logo will cost. At RTN Sports , we use upgraded, premium thread embroidery all the time.
