Tell us what you are making and we will recommend the method that fits your quantity, colors and budget.
Why Alchemy
Most projects need more than one thing: a logo cleaned up, shirts printed, hats embroidered, a banner for the booth and stickers for the table. We handle all of it under one roof, so you have one point of contact and your brand looks the same on everything.
Color separations, Pantone matching, vector redraws and embroidery digitizing are done by our own designers.
You approve a proof first, and every item we produce is checked against it before it leaves the shop.
We will tell you honestly whether screen printing, DTF or embroidery is the better value for your order.
Years of fine-tuning our equipment and process means large runs get the same care as a dozen shirts.
01
Screen printing is the best value for larger runs and designs with a handful of colors. The price per piece drops as your quantity goes up, and the ink is bold and built to last, which is why it is the go-to for team shirts, company apparel and merch.
02
DTF prints your design onto a special film that is heat-pressed onto the garment. It handles full-color, highly detailed artwork with no screen setup, so it is the cost-effective choice for small and medium orders.
03
Embroidery gives logos and names a polished, premium finish that lasts. It is ideal for smaller designs on caps, polos and jackets, and it is the look most businesses want on uniforms and corporate wear.
04
Stickers and labels for brands, bands, events and product packaging. Pick a sticker type, choose your quantity and order online, or send us your artwork and we will set it up for you.
05
Business cards that make your first impression count, from classic paper stocks to plastic and metal cards that people hold on to.
06
Indoor and outdoor banners plus portable stands for trade shows, events, storefronts and sports. Everything is printed in full color and sized to your space.
07
Our in-house designers turn an idea, a sketch or a low-resolution file into clean, print-ready artwork for whichever method you choose.
