CAPABILITIES
Ad Astra Apparel Co. has a diverse art background and unique ability to bring the digital to the tangible. We are one of the few screenprinters in Wichita who can see your project through - from beginning to end.
IN HOUSE DESIGN STUDIO
Ad Astra Apparel maintains a team of graphic designers utilizing the Adobe Creative Suite who can make your idea a reality. Schedule a free design consultation to sit down with a designer to develop a concept and quotation for your project.
​
Our in-house design professionals will make sure you have art that you love and ensure that your project is done quickly, usually around 7 days once you have signed-off on art design.
PRINT JOBS FROM ONE TO THOUSANDS
Ad Astra Apparel maintains heat sublimation printers and heat transfer for those one-off prints you may desire. Additionally, Ad Astra Apparel maintains both manual presses (around 75 multicolor prints per hour) and automatic presses (around 400 multicolor prints per hour).
​
We understand that every job is important, and that developing one-offs are important for our customers to show concept and build support for larger runs.
CUSTOM COLORS WITH PANTONE®
Ad Astra utilizes the Pantone® Matching System to match your desired colors. Pantone® is a color standardization used across the printing industries, from offset lithography to screenprinting.
Red is one of the more expansive options available under the Pantone® system. Most customers prefer the very traditional "Fire Engine Red", which is Pantone®186-C. On paper, Fire Engine Red presents a nice, strong red, however, in the context of screen printing, we prefer a much brighter alternative, such as Pantone 485-C.
