Silk screen printing - "own image/logo"
Silk screen printing or screen printing is a printing technique whereby a mesh is used to transfer ink onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil. Basically, it is the process of using a mesh-based stencil to apply ink onto a substrate, whether it be T-shirts, posters, stickers, vinyl, wood, or other material.
Traditionally the process was called screen printing or silkscreen printing because silk was used in the process prior to the invention of polyester mesh. Currently, synthetic threads are commonly used in the screen printing process. The most popular mesh in general use is made of polyester. There are special-use mesh materials of nylon and stainless steel available to the screen printer. There are also different types of mesh size which will determine the outcome and look of the finished design on the material.
An own mesh is needed for every color. The overall production costs are derived from the amount of the meshes (their manufacturing costs) and the work that is needed to press the mesh on the product.

Sublimation printing - "own image/logo"
In sublimation printing colors are printed directly into the fabric. This technology is used very commonly in sports textiles. Sublimation printing is suitable for fabrics in which the majority is polyester (Sublimation printing can not be made in to cotton fabric). In sublimation printing technique the color is vaporized at high temperatures deep into the fabric fiber. Printing is eternal so it does not wear, fade or peel over time, such as silk screen printing or thermal transfer labels. In sublimation print quality is not knowable by hand, which means it does not constitute the fabric of any "film". Multi-color sublimation is only suitable for white or very light colored textiles. Other colored clothing can be sublimated fabric darker colors. Sublimation is also produced in the so-called full-sublimaton products, then usually white fabric sublimated desired look like even before the product pile sewing. The price of sublimation printing is significantly higher than in other printing techniques, but it doesn’t have start-up costs which makes it suitable for very small piece quantities and makes the product truly give of high-quality product.
