Screen printing is a process used to make signs (and other things) as opposed to a type of sign. In screen printing, there is an upfront cost to produce the artwork and "screens" themselves. However, once the screens are made, the actual, per unit cost is low compared to most other means of making signs. Screen printing is often a good option when considering a "volume" of the same exact sign. What that volume is depends on a number of things, such as the number of colors and the size of the sign being produced.

Screen printing allows you to take advantage of full color advertising in large quantities. Des Plaines SIGN*A*RAMA® can help you design and implement screen printed signs that get your message noticed. Screen printed signs are also a very effective option when color matching is important.

Since screen printing is a process it can be used with a variety of substrates like corrugated plastic, label materials, posters, foam products, metals, magnetics, acrylics and many more. They can be used for a variety of smaller items like decals, bumper stickers, and refrigerator magnets. They can also be used for larger items like real estate signs, yard signs, political signs, truck magnets, posters and advertisements on the sides of busses.
