Custom T-Shirt & Apparel Printing

Threadworks provides the supply and printing of custom t-shirts, hoodies, and apparel across Auckland. We supply and brand every type of garment, including fashion, sportswear, corporate uniforms, and workwear. From small chest logos to custom hoodie sleeve prints, our Albany print shop handles both synthetic and natural fibres. We are now preferring these digital printing solutions over screen printing due to waste water issues inherent in screen printing.

  • Customisation:

    Garment printing enables the creation of custom designs that can be tailored to specific needs and preferences, making it ideal for businesses seeking branded merchandise or individuals seeking personalised gifts or apparel.

  • Cost-effective:

    Direct-to-film printing is a cost-effective option compared to other methods such as screen printing, especially for smaller quantities or one-off designs. It also offers a faster turnaround time, making it a great option for tight deadlines.

  • Wide Range of Options:

    This type of printing can be done on a variety of fabrics and items, including t-shirts, hoodies, hats, bags, and more. This makes it a versatile option that can be used for a wide range of purposes.

  • Durability:

    Garment printing uses high-quality inks and printing techniques that ensure the design is durable and long-lasting. This means that the design will not fade or peel easily, even after multiple washes.

  • Professional Appearance:

    We produce designs that have a professional appearance, making it an excellent choice for businesses looking to create branded merchandise or uniforms for their employees.

  • Eco-friendly:

    We aim to produce less waste than traditional printing methods such as screen printing. It also uses less water and energy, making it a more sustainable choice for those looking to reduce their environmental impact.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to provide my own t-shirts or hoodies for printing?

Not at all. We are a full-service apparel supplier in Auckland. You can choose from our extensive range of premium brands, and we handle the branding in-house. If you already have garments suitable for branding, we are happy to use them as well.

What is the best printing method for my logo?

It depends on your design and quantity. Our team will select the most durable and cost-effective method for your specific project.

Is there a minimum order for custom printing?

One of the benefits of our digital printing technology is that we can offer no minimum orders on many items. Whether you need a single personalised t-shirt for a gift or a bulk order of 500+ shirts for an event, we can deliver high-quality results with a fast turnaround.

How long does custom printing take?

Because we do all our printing in-house at our Albany workshop, we offer some of the fastest turnaround times in New Zealand. Standard orders are typically completed within 5-6 working days. If you have a tight deadline for an event, let us know, and we will do our best to accommodate a rush order.

How durable are the prints? Will they fade in the wash?

We use industrial-grade inks and high-pressure heat presses to ensure your logo printing is built to last. When cared for correctly (we recommend a cold wash and avoiding the dryer), our prints maintain their vibrancy, making them perfect for workwear and uniforms.
