What is Hybrid Printing?

Hybrid printing combines traditional screen printing (typically for underbases) with digital printing for full-color layers. This approach is ideal for high-volume production where both cost-efficiency and visual detail are needed.

Use screen printing for base layers, flat colors, and large volumes.
Use DTG to add detailed images, gradients, or customization on top.

Screen printing

Screen printing is a method where designs are applied to garments by pressing ink through a mesh that is partially blocked off by a pattern form. This technique is classified as an indirect garment printing method due to its use of a mesh medium.

Direct To Garment printing

DTG is a water-based printing method that sprays ink directly onto the garment. It requires pretreatment for dark garments and is most efficient for orders ranging from one to a few dozen units.
