Earth Positive T Shirts

It is turning into another very busy month at Advertees, and the blog is being neglected terribly, we are seeing some really nice jobs going out of the door unrecorded as we pull out all the stops to meet our deadlines. Our job conversion rate to water based inks is higher than ever, and the […]

Cool Earth

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

It seems Cool Earth has found itself at the centre of much controversy and debate.

Waterbased inks

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008

Although not ideal in all situations, and the ink a real nightmare to work with at times, water based screen printing can be extremely satisfying.

Blood sweat and t shirts will be on our TV screens on 22nd April at 9pm on BBC3. From the bits and pieces we have managed to glimpse so far it looks like it could be a very interesting programme. How much thought do we give to the origins of our clothing? Very little I […]

Water based inks
