Question
How much does a silk screen plate cost?
Answer
Silk screen printing carries a plate setup charge, and the total depends on your design. Each color, and sometimes each additional ink hit on the same side, can require its own plate, so a multi-color or dark-garment job needs more plates than a simple one-color print.
- One plate is made per color in the design.
- Extra ink hits on the same side, often needed on dark fabric, may add plates.
- Once plates exist, larger runs spread that setup cost across more pieces.
- Request a quote for your specific colors, placement, and garment to get exact plate pricing.
