| | About Us
Eastland Screen Prints, Inc. specializes in custom screen printing on
T-shirts, sweatshirts, jackets, caps, and other wearables. It has been
serving both retail and wholesale customers since 1981. We are a real "brick &
mortar" printing facility located in northern Virginia. Many of the t-shirt
printing companies that you will encounter on
the web--including
many who offer
very good front-end interactive utilities allowing you to "design" your own
shirts--are not actually printers themselves, but contract out all of the actual
production to facilities like us. There is certainly nothing wrong with that.
But it usually means that their prices are higher because there are more "middle
men" in the process. Also, not having "ink under their fingernails" they have
less experience with the thousands of potential pitfalls and
technical printing problem areas that can make all the difference in whether your
design (which might look great on the computer screen) simply will not print
well on an actual t-shirt. Try loading dark colored paper--to simulate printing
on that color of t-shirt-- into your home printer and printing out that same
design. I think you will see what we mean. In the 25+ years that we have been printing, we have
pretty much made all the mistakes that you can make. We don't usually make them again!
We can advise you how to make your design really work well on a t-shirt.
Although physically located in Fairfax, Virginia, we serve the
Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, including Maryland and Virginia. In this
modern era of e-mail and "just in time" shipping, we have often dealt with
customers we have never seen and shipped product all over the country.
We are a small and highly experienced group of people who have been working
together, as a company, for many years. Many of our customers think we are a
family-run business. In a sense we are. Our core design and production
individuals have been working together for nearly 20 years! We can apply those years of experience to solve your problems
and make sure that you receive a top quality printing job, and also
friendly, knowledgeable service.
We hope our other pages will help you with information on how we can serve you
effectively and efficiently. For example, we have general information about screen
printing that may help you decide how your design, ink and fabrics will interact on
the final product. We also provide information on the services we provide in helping you
apply your design to a high-quality final product.
