In screen printing, your mesh is the foundation that determines the detail, texture and colour application of your final print. It’s the filter through which your design is translated onto the substrate.
Mesh count, material and thread diameter all play a role in controlling the amount of ink that passes through and the level of detail in your print. Higher mesh counts allow for finer detail and less ink, while lower mesh counts produce bolder prints with more ink.
Understanding the properties and capabilities of your mesh is critical to achieving the desired results in your screen printing projects. Choose the right mesh for your needs and take your prints to the next level!
