01Who orders custom tees in bulk

Built for runs,
not one offs.

Phoenix has plenty of shops for a dozen shirts. This floor is for programs: company apparel, events, licensed entertainment, brands and retail programs that need the print, the count and the finishing right on every piece.

Companies & events
Apparel for a company, a tour, a festival or a season, printed to one written specification so the five hundredth shirt matches the first.
Brands & retail programs
Specialty brands and retail programs that need separations, specialty inks and shelf ready finishing, not just a print.
Promo distributors
ASI and PPAI distributors running client programs, shipped blind under your own labels and paperwork. For distributors

03Your shirts or ours

Bring the blanks,
or we source them.

Both routes run the same presses, the same operators and the same checkpoints. The difference is who buys the garment.

You send the blanks

Contract print: your counted blanks come in, get decorated, finished and packed to spec, and go back counted out the way they came in.

Contract screen printing

We source the blanks

Full package: we source the garments through a five country network, print, finish, warehouse and ship the whole program. You approve the proof.

05Questions

Custom tees,
answered.

What Phoenix buyers ask before a bulk t-shirt run, answered straight.

  1. Yes.

    Can I bring my own shirts?

    That is contract printing: you send counted blanks, we decorate, finish and pack to spec, then return the run counted out the way it came in.

  2. Yes.

    Can you print photos and full color art?

    Simulated process runs up to 18 colors in one pass, and we build the separations here.

  3. Either.

    Can you supply the shirts?

    Full package means we source the blanks, decorate, finish, warehouse and distribute the whole program.

  4. Anywhere.

    Where do you deliver?

    Every run is printed in Phoenix and ships wherever you need it: your office, your warehouse, a distribution center or straight to your customers, in our cartons, plain cartons or fully blind.

  5. Yes.

    Can you tag and bag the shirts?

    Relabel and neck tags, hang tags and tickets, size stickers, fold and polybag, size runs and pre-packs, and retail compliant packing with EDI and ASN documentation.
