Can you buy a customised screen print kit ready to use

Post by Mrteajunkie »

I would like a ready to use kit for adding a name and website to shipping boxes.
They are only 10cm wide so the screen would only need to be small.

At the moment I’m printing a colour sticker to clear vinyl and sticking them on.

Does the name stay the same on each print? What do the boxes look like?

The boxes are for banners so i use colompac 108 x 108 x either 610 or 705mm.
Yes the text will only be the website address and basic logo.

Forgive me if I'm not understanding correctly but wouldn't you be better getting these printed in bulk?

I don't hold many in stock, i only order 50 of each at a time.

I didn't know if screen print was a cheap option or not?

To be honest i decided not to bother.
I can print as many stickers as i want so i just add a sticker to the outside of a box now.
I have so much vinyl offcuts sat doing nothing i use it for this purpose now.
