Screen Printing vs. Embroidery: What’s Best for Your Event?
-
Screen Printing: Bold, colorful, and cost-effective — perfect for t-shirts, hoodies, and giveaway items in larger quantities.
-
Embroidery: Professional, polished, and durable — ideal for polos, jackets, and hats when you want to elevate your brand’s look.
Not sure which one is right? Many events use a mix — screen-printed tees for participants and embroidered polos or jackets for staff and sponsors.
