Screen Printing and Heat Transfer Printing in Faisalabad is how we put your logo, staff names and safety markings onto uniforms that get worn hard every day. We run plastisol, water-based and reflective transfer work for schools, factories, hospitals and corporate teams across Punjab, from a 50-piece sample run to a 5,000-piece seasonal order. Send us your artwork and garment list, and we will quote you the same week.
Screen printing pushes thick ink through a mesh stencil onto the fabric, one colour at a time, then cures it at 150-160 C so the print bonds into the weave. Heat transfer printing works differently: your design is printed onto a carrier film and pressed onto the garment at 160-180 C for 15-25 seconds. Screen printing wins on large runs and bold flat colours; transfers win on small logos, gradients, names and numbers. Most uniform programmes use both on the same order.
Faisalabad's textile mills, schools and hospitals order uniforms in the thousands, and every one of those garments needs a logo, a department name or a reflective strip. Because the city sits in Punjab's cotton belt, we source blanks locally and print them in the same building, which keeps a 1,000-piece order to 7-10 working days instead of the 3-4 weeks a broker will quote you. If you are comparing screen printing and heat transfer printing for a bulk uniform order in Faisalabad, the deciding factors are fabric type, ink durability and how the garment is washed.
Every printing order includes artwork preparation, a physical strike-off on your fabric, the production run, quality control and packing. Setup charges are quoted separately per colour. Here is exactly what you get when you place a screen printing or heat transfer order with us in Faisalabad.
We check your logo file for resolution, colour separations and line weight, then redraw it if needed. You get a digital proof within 24 hours and a physical strike-off on your actual garment fabric before the full run starts. No setup charge until you approve.
One mesh screen per colour, typically 110-160 mesh for bold logos and 230-305 mesh for fine detail. Setup takes 1-2 days. We hold your screens between orders so a re-order next season matches the original print exactly.
Individual names, numbers, gradients and photographic logos are printed on carrier film and pressed at 160-180 C for 15-25 seconds. We use heat-seal backing so the transfer stays legible through 60+ industrial washes. Ideal for hotel, airline and security teams.
For construction, logistics and oil and gas crews we apply retro-reflective transfers that meet the visibility requirements buyers expect on site. These sit flat on coveralls and hi-vis vests without adding bulk. FR-rated films are available for flame-resistant garments.
Every piece is checked for print alignment, ink coverage and cure before it is packed. Faults go back to the press, not into your carton. We pack by size and department, label each carton, and dispatch anywhere in Faisalabad same-day or across Punjab in 24-48 hours.
You send your logo as AI, EPS, PDF or a clean 300 DPI PNG. Our pre-press team checks colour separations, line weights and whether the design needs trapping for screen work. If the file is a low-resolution JPEG, we redraw it and send you a proof within 24 hours. No setup charge until you approve the proof.
We confirm the garment: 180-220 GSM poly-cotton for corporate shirts, 240-280 GSM twill for workwear, 100% polyester for hi-vis. Ink type follows the fabric. Cotton takes water-based and plastisol; polyester needs low-bleed plastisol or a transfer to stop dye migration. This decision is made before a single screen is burned.
For screen printing we burn one mesh screen per colour, typically 110-160 mesh for bold logos and 230-305 mesh for finer detail. For transfers we print the carrier film and cut it to size. Setup takes 1-2 days. You get a physical strike-off on your actual garment fabric before the full run starts.
A 500-piece single-colour screen job runs in 1-2 days on our carousel presses. A 2,000-piece order with front, back and sleeve prints takes 4-6 days. Heat transfer names and numbers are pressed after the main print cures, so nothing gets double-handled. We photograph the first 20 pieces and send them to you mid-run.
Every piece is checked for print alignment, ink coverage and cure. Faults go back to the press, not into your carton. We pack by size and department, label each carton, and dispatch anywhere in Faisalabad same-day or across Punjab in 24-48 hours. Bulk export orders ship with the documentation your buyer needs.
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Multi-colour screen printing on flat garments at 400-600 pieces per hour. Used for school crests, corporate logos and large back prints where bold flat colour is the priority.
Pressing transfers at 160-180 C for 15-25 seconds with controlled pressure. Used for individual names, numbers, gradients and reflective strips where placement accuracy matters.
110-160 mesh for bold logos and thick ink deposit; 230-305 mesh for finer detail and thinner ink film. We burn one screen per colour and hold them between orders for exact re-orders.
Plastisol for durability on cotton and poly-cotton; water-based for a softer hand-feel on finer shirting; low-bleed plastisol for 100% polyester hi-vis where dye migration is the risk.
Heat-applied reflective strips for construction, logistics and oil and gas workwear. Sits flat on coveralls and vests without adding bulk, and meets site visibility requirements.
For flame-resistant garments, so the print does not compromise the garment's protection rating. Used on oil and gas and utility workwear where the safety spec is non-negotiable.
Records the actual cure temperature on every production batch. If a batch reads below 150 C, it goes back through the dryer before it is packed.
A Madina Town school had 1,800 shirts printed by a broker the previous year. By mid-session the crests had cracked and faded, and the colour did not match the house flag. They needed a full re-print before the next session.
We held the screens, ran a strike-off on the current fabric batch, and screen printed the crest in three colours across 1,800 shirts. The 2026 batch matched the 2025 print exactly, delivered in nine working days with zero mid-year re-orders.
A mill in the Faisalabad Industrial Estate had 600 hi-vis vests printed with a red logo that turned muddy grey within six weeks. The polyester dye was migrating into standard plastisol ink.
We re-printed with low-bleed plastisol and a dye barrier, then heat-applied retro-reflective strips that meet site visibility requirements. After four months of daily wear and weekly washing, the logo is still bright and the reflective strips still read on site.
A Susan Road office had 350 shirts screen printed with a two-colour logo. The print stiffened the fabric, and the logo sat 2 cm off-centre on roughly a third of the shirts. Staff stopped wearing them.
We switched to heat transfer, pressing the logo and individual sleeve names at 170 C for 20 seconds with heat-seal backing. Placement is identical on all 350 shirts, the hand-feel is soft, and the print has not cracked after 40 washes.
Most printing complaints in this trade come down to four things: wrong ink for the fabric, weak cure, misaligned placement and a supplier who disappears mid-order. Here is how we handle each one before it reaches your carton.
Ask a pro →We cure plastisol at 150-160 C and test every new ink batch with a 50-wash cycle before production. On 180-220 GSM cotton and poly-cotton, a correctly cured print lasts the life of the garment. If a batch fails the wash test, it does not go to press.
Polyester needs low-bleed plastisol or a transfer film with a dye barrier. We match the ink system to the fabric before a screen is burned, and we run a strike-off on your actual hi-vis garment so you see the true colour before the full run.
We press names and numbers on a fixed platen with a placement guide marked at the pattern stage. The first 20 pieces are photographed and sent to you mid-run, so any drift is caught before the remaining 480 pieces are pressed.
We print, press, cut and stitch in our own Faisalabad facility. Nothing is subcontracted, so a 1,000-piece order stays on a 7-10 day schedule. You can visit the floor and watch your run, and you deal with one team from artwork to dispatch.
Rs 45-150 per print position depending on quantity, plus Rs 2,500-4,000 setup per colour
Printing is priced per position, per colour, plus a one-time setup charge per colour. In 2026, a single-colour screen print on a uniform in Faisalabad runs Rs 45-70 per piece at 2,000 units, Rs 70-100 at 500 units, and Rs 110-150 at 100 units. Heat transfer names and numbers add Rs 30-60 each. Setup is Rs 2,500-4,000 per colour for screen work. We quote the full tier table upfront so you can see exactly where your order sits before you commit.
The per-piece price falls fast as quantity rises, so consolidating your annual uniform order into one or two larger runs usually saves more than shopping around for a lower unit rate. We quote the full tier table so you can see the saving before you commit.
Setup cost is spread across the run, so per-piece price drops sharply as quantity rises. A 2,000-piece run can cost 60% less per piece than a 100-piece run for the same single-colour print. We publish the tiers at 100, 500, 1,000 and 2,500 pieces.
Each colour needs its own screen and its own pass through the press. A one-colour logo is the cheapest; a four-colour crest roughly doubles the per-piece print cost. Heat transfer can be cheaper for multi-colour designs because it prints in one pass.
Front only is the base price. Adding a back print, sleeve prints or a name adds a position charge per piece. A front-and-back order typically runs 1.6-1.8 times the front-only price, not double.
Cotton and poly-cotton take standard plastisol at the base price. 100% polyester needs low-bleed plastisol or a transfer with a dye barrier, which adds Rs 10-25 per piece. FR-rated film for flame-resistant garments adds more.
“We order 1,800 school shirts every season and the crest has to match year after year. A.G. Fabrics held our screens from last year, so the 2026 batch is identical to 2025. The strike-off on our actual fabric caught a shade issue before the full run. Delivered in nine working days.”
Imran S.School Administrator, Madina Town
✓ Verified“We needed reflective transfers on 600 hi-vis vests for a mill crew. The team used low-bleed plastisol so the print did not grey out on the polyester, and the reflective strips still meet our site spec after four months of daily wear. Printed and delivered inside two weeks.”
Faisal R.Operations Manager, Faisalabad Industrial Estate
✓ Verified“Our corporate shirts have a small two-colour logo, and heat transfer gave a much softer finish than the screen print we had before. A.G. Fabrics pressed 350 shirts with individual names on the sleeves. The print has not cracked after 40 washes, and the placement is identical on every shirt.”
Ayesha K.HR Lead, Corporate Office, Susan Road
✓ VerifiedIn 2026, a single-colour screen print on a uniform in Faisalabad runs Rs 45-70 per piece at 2,000 units, Rs 70-100 at 500 units, and Rs 110-150 at 100 units. Heat transfer names and numbers add Rs 30-60 each. Setup is a one-time charge per colour, so larger runs always cost less per piece.
A 500-piece single-colour screen order takes 7-10 working days from approved proof to dispatch. A 2,000-piece order with front, back and sleeve prints takes 12-15 working days. Heat transfer names and numbers add 2-3 days. We confirm the exact date in writing when you approve the strike-off.
Correctly cured plastisol ink on 180-220 GSM cotton or poly-cotton will not crack or fade for the life of the garment, which is typically 50-80 industrial washes. We test every new ink batch with a 50-wash cycle before production. Wash inside out at 40 C and avoid direct ironing on the print.
Yes. Polyester needs low-bleed plastisol or a transfer to stop dye migration, and we print reflective transfers onto hi-vis vests and coveralls for construction, logistics and oil and gas crews. For flame-resistant garments we use FR-rated transfer films so the print does not compromise the garment's protection rating.
Custom Uniform ManufacturingWe build the garment and print it in the same facility, so your logo placement is planned at the pattern stage rather than squeezed on afterwards. For Faisalabad buyers this means one order, one lead time and one invoice for both stitching and printing.Explore →
Bulk Uniform Manufacturing and Wholesale SupplyBulk orders are where screen printing pays off. Setup cost is spread across thousands of pieces, so a 2,000-piece wholesale supply order can drop the per-unit print price by 60% compared with a 100-piece run. We quote the full tier table upfront.Explore →
OEM and Private Label Uniform ManufacturingIf you sell uniforms under your own brand, we print your label, care tags and logo to your spec. Faisalabad OEM buyers get private-label cartons, barcode labels and export documentation, with the printing done in-house before the garments are packed.Explore →
Custom Uniform Stitching and TailoringPrinting sits at the end of the stitching line. We cut, stitch and finish the garment first, then print or press the branding, so the ink never gets stretched or distorted by a sewing machine. This order of operations is why our prints stay aligned.Explore →
Made-to-Measure Uniform ManufacturingFor small senior teams, made-to-measure garments are printed individually. Heat transfer is the better fit here because each piece carries a different name or rank. We press at 170 C for 20 seconds so the print sits flat on the tailored fabric.Explore →
Uniform Design and Pattern DevelopmentOur design team plans print placement at the pattern stage, marking chest, back and sleeve positions on the technical drawing. Faisalabad clients get a printed placement guide with the pattern, so re-orders years later land in exactly the same spot.Explore →
Uniform Sampling and Prototype DevelopmentBefore a 2,000-piece run, we produce a printed prototype on your actual fabric. You check colour, placement and hand-feel. This strike-off step catches wrong shades and misaligned logos on one piece instead of on the full production order.Explore →
