Silk Screen Printing in Lakewood, CO – Where Your Brand Gets Bold
Stop Settling for Forgettable Apparel
You’ve seen them. Those sad, cracked logos on last year’s team shirts. The faded event tees stuffed in the back of someone’s drawer. The “promotional” gear that screams “we went cheap.”
That’s not what you’re here for.
You want apparel that turns heads. Merch people actually fight over. Apparel your employees with pride—not just at work, but everywearst at work, but everywear.
Welcome to the world of professional silk screen printing. And welcome to Choice Image, where we’ve been making Denver-area brands look incredible since 1982.
Screen Printing: The Secret Weapon of Smart Brands
Here’s the truth: screen printing isn’t just a printing method. It’s your competitive advantage.
Think about it. When colors pop like they’re lit from within. When prints survive a hundred wash cycles without even thinking about fading. When people actually compliment your company shirts—that’s screen printing doing what it does best.
Why the smart money chooses screen printing:
Colors that absolutely dominate—even on black shirts. We’re talking vibrant, eye-catching, impossible-to-ignore color that makes cheap prints look embarrassing by comparison.
Durability that laughs at laundry day. No cracking. No peeling. No “it looked good for about three weeks.” These prints are built for the long haul.
Pricing that gets better the more you order. Unlike other methods that punish you for buying in bulk, screen printing rewards smart ordering. Your CFO will thank you.
Versatility that says “yes” to almost everything. Cotton tees? Check. Hoodies? Absolutely. Tote bags? You got it. If you can wear it, we can print on it.
How We Transform Your Ideas Into Wearable Excellence
Let’s pull back the curtain. Here’s what happens when you trust us with your brand:
Artwork Optimization – We don’t just accept your file and cross our fingers. Our team reviews every pixel, separates colors like surgeons, and optimizes everything for maximum visual impact. This is where good becomes great.
Precision Screen Creation – Each color gets its own dedicated screen, created with light-sensitive emulsion and decades of expertise. There’s no cutting corners here.
The Perfect Alignment – Have you ever seen a print where the colors don’t quite line up? Yeah, that’s amateur hour. We test, adjust, and test again until alignment is flawless.
Layer by Layer Excellence – Your garments receive each color individually, building up to that final “wow” moment when everything comes together.
Lock It In – High-temperature curing bonds that ink permanently to the fabric. This is why our prints still look fresh years later.
Quality Obsession – Every piece gets inspected by human eyes. Because automation is great, but it doesn’t catch everything.
This is 40+ years of experience, distilled into a process that delivers consistent excellence whether you’re ordering 24 pieces or 2,400.
We Print on Everything That Matters
Classic Tees & Long Sleeves – From soft ringspun cotton to durable heavyweight blends. The kind of shirts people actually keep.
Hoodies That Mean Business – Cozy fleece, premium blends, pigment-dyed styles that elevate your brand from “corporate swag” to “where can I get one?”
Professional Polos & Workwear – Your team represents you every day. Give them uniforms that look as sharp as they are.
Bags That Get Noticed – Canvas totes aren’t just eco-friendly—they’re walking billboards for brands smart enough to use them.
Performance Fabrics – Yes, even athletic wear. We’ve mastered the ink systems and temperature controls that make it work.
Overwhelmed by options? Don’t be. We’ll guide you to the perfect blank based on your goals, audience, and budget. Consider us your apparel consultants.
The Right Ink Changes Everything
Plastisol – The industry standard for good reason. Vivid, opaque, outlasts everything else. When you absolutely need it to last, this is your answer.
Water-Based – Soft as your favorite vintage tee. Breathable. Perfect for that premium, fashion-forward feel.
Discharge Printing – We remove the shirt’s dye and replace it with pigment. The result? Buttery-soft prints on dark garments that feel like nothing’s even there.
Specialty Effects – Puff ink that adds dimension. Metallic shine that catches light. Foil applications that scream luxury. Glow-in-the-dark for when standard just won’t cut it.
We match the ink to your vision. Always.
Why Screen Printing Dominates (When You Do It Right)
Longevity You Can Measure in Years – While other printing methods start looking tired after a season, screen printing is just getting started.
Brand Color Accuracy That’s Non-Negotiable – Pantone matching means your brand red looks identical across 500 shirts. Your designer will actually smile.
Volume Pricing That Makes Sense – Outfit 50 employees? 200 event attendees? Watch your per-piece cost drop like a stone.
Creative Range That Surprises People – From simple one-color logos to complex multi-color designs with specialty finishes. If you can imagine it, we can print it.
Screen Printing vs. The Alternatives (No BS)
Comparing to DTG (Direct-to-Garment):
Screen printing wins when you’re printing 25+ pieces, need bulletproof durability, require specific brand colors, or you’re working with dark garments. DTG makes sense for tiny quantities with photographic detail on light shirts.
Comparing to Heat Transfer & Vinyl:
Great for individual names and numbers. Not so great for durability or that premium feel you’re after.
Comparing to Sublimation:
Stunning on white polyester. Useless on cotton or dark colors. Screen printing works on everything.
The bottom line: If you want prints that look professional and last through real-world use, screen printing is your winner.
Let’s Talk Investment (Because It Matters)
Screen printing pricing is refreshingly straightforward:
Colors affect setup – Each color needs its own screen. But here’s the thing: smart design can maximize impact while minimizing colors.
Quantity is your superpower – Order 100 instead of 24? Watch that per-piece price plummet. The math genuinely works in your favor.
Garment selection matters – Basic tees to premium hoodies—we’ll show you options at every price point.
Print locations add up – Front, back, sleeves. Each location gets attention and affects pricing.
Specialty inks bring wow factor – Metallics, puff, foil—these extras create impact and adjust investment accordingly.
Here’s the insider tip: consolidate designs and be strategic with color count. You’ll get maximum visual impact at the best possible price.
Want exact numbers? Tell us your quantity, garment type, and timeline. We’ll give you a straight answer in hours, not days.
Choosing Your Screen Printing Partner (Don’t Gamble)
Demand these essentials:
Real experience and proven work. Portfolio beats promises every time.
In-house equipment. No outsourcing means no excuses and faster turnarounds.
Actual art expertise. Separations, halftones, Pantone matching—this isn’t amateur hour.
Honest timelines. We tell you what’s realistic, not what you want to hear.
Communication that doesn’t disappear after you pay. We’re here before, during, and after.
Here’s why local matters: Working with Choice Image means you can actually talk to the people printing your order. No offshore call centers. No runaround. Just straight answers from people who’ve served Colorado since 1982.
We understand local timelines, local events, and local expectations. That’s not nothing.
