Screen Printing vs. DTF for Live Events

Screen printing

DTF transfers

For a Portland event the honest split is this: screen printing wins the day when you are printing one design at volume — a show day at Oregon Convention Center, a festival run, anything where the same art goes on hundreds of shirts. DTF wins when the art is full-color or changes per guest, which is most of what we do at Alberta Arts District activations and private parties. If a Portland event needs both, we run both from one station rather than making you choose.
