It demonstrates that your brand values individuality and puts the customer at the heart of your business, setting you apart from the competition.

Product Customisation Methods Used by Monday Merch

Product customisation could be either bespoke products made for a specific customer or made-to-order products, using a standardised production method with a range of options provided within existing specifications. These are the customisation methods most used by Monday Merch:

1. Transfer Print

This technique involves digitally printing the desired image on a special foil, cutting it to a preset shape and then applying it on the item by hot pressing. Transfer printing is suitable for printing with many different colours. Compared to screen printing, transfer printing is better suited for short runs.
- Efficient for small productions
- Striking result!
- Unlimited colours can be used at no additional charge
- Gradient logos can be printed

2. Screen Print

This is a silk screen or digital print on a paper label. This is specially prepared for the transfer to be applied at high temperature on the object using a hot press.
- Efficient for large productions
- Additional costs per colour used
- Gradient logos cannot be printed

3. Embroidery

This technique highlights the logo with elegance: the logo is embroidered on the object's surface. The embroidery can be made on plain/flat surfaces (clothing) or irregular/uneven surfaces such as hats, backpacks, bags, etc. We can control multiple machines at the same time and set multiple colours per embroidery. Clothing with embroidery has a chic look and is often used as corporate clothing.
- Gradient logos cannot be embroidered
- Number of colours is limited to ±12

4. Laser Engraving

This technique uses a laser beam to print text, logos or drawings by engraving the object's surface. Generally it is used on metal but the same technique can also be applied with excellent results on wood or plastic.

- Only 1 colour can be used
- Sustainable
- Premium look

5. Pad Printing

This method is the fastest and most accurate because it allows printing of logos with a high number of colours on most surfaces. Generally the print is applied on small objects made of plastic or other hard materials, on which the paint is transferred with a silicone pad.

- Additional costs per colour used
- Gradient logos cannot be printed

6. Custom Made

Customised products are unique and built-to-order. The colour of the whole item can be made in a PMS colour of choice.
- Longer production time
- Whole product can be customised
- Larger MOQ
