Barefoot Imprint
is a family run local company that has been doing screen printing and promotional product printing since 2006. A capital investment for a direct to
 garment printer allows them to print in multiple colors at once to accurately duplicate photographs or any graphic design on to a garment.Over time they have found ways to green up their operations. The switch to the new printer means a better quality product using less ink and less cleaning material. In this process "the ink becomes part ot the garment and allows the fabric to breath. This is great for Fire, Police Departments and anyone else who cannot have a flamable surface on their clothing."
Barefoot Imprint also switched to non-toxic inks and when ever possible use promotional products made from recycled materials.
