8000 t-shirts to 500 addresses in 5 days please!!

UPS Lorry at Fanela T-Shirts Printers"We require 8000 t-shirts to 500 addresses in 5 days", was the request we got last week! A major mobile telecommunications company wanted to send 8000 t-shirts with split deliveries to 500 branches nationwide, so each retail outlet would receive a small quantity of t-shirts for staff to wear for a forthcoming launch.

For Fanela this was not only 8000 t/shirts, but also collectively 24,000 individual t-shirt prints, as the long sleeve tshirt had 3 different positional prints, including front, back and sleeve.

Stock was in place on Monday 5th Oct, artwork received on the same morning and the t/shirts printed, packed and finished for UPS collection today 9th Oct, all ready for the staff to wear their new long sleeve t-shirts on Monday 12th Oct.

Another impossible deadline for most printers, but not Fanela ;-)

Why Use T Shirt Printing for Promotional Purposes?

Over the last 60 years or so, t-shirt printing has become more and more popular. The main method of t shirt printing has always been screen printing - a very simple technique that uses a mesh and a stencil to transfer ink to certain sections of a t shirt’s fabric - but digital printing is becoming more common now too.
Almost any colourways are possible with t shirt printing, and any design, and whilst the process is a little more complicated on dark fabric, it’s relatively easy to get amazing effects (and you can even use glitter or foil t shirt inks for a really unusual look!)

Whatever you do with your printed t shirt, there is no doubt it is a superb way of making a business or a brand more visible. Everybody knows the power of advertising, and printed t-shirts are just that – superb advertising. Not only can a printed t-shirt remind people of your company or your product every time they see it, but it can also create a really strong identity for your sports or social club too, and without huge expenditure either.
