Ethical T-Shirt Printing
Ethical t-shirt printing from Pier32 - the ethical t-shirt printers of choice for many charities, universities, businesses and other organisations across the UK.
From the selection of ethically produced and independently certified garments, through environmentally sensitive and responsible printing methods, to despatch in re-used and recycled packaging - ethical t-shirt printing is an all-encompassing process.
Ethically Produced T-Shirts
Our garments are selected from manufacturers with independent certificates of ethical production. We look for WRAP Compliance, Fairwear Foundation, or Fairtrade. Please visit Our Ethics for more information.
Ethical Supply Chain
Responsible and ethical sourcing registered with Sedex is important to any ethical t-shirt printer. Please visit Our Ethics for more information.
Responsible Printing
A combination of plastisol and water-based inks are used and offered. Despite being oil-based, plastisol is an excellent choice for environmentally responsible printing due to its low waste and low drying temperature. Water-based inks are oil-free but their short shelf life increases waste whilst their higher curing temperature has a greater carbon footprint. Please visit Our Processes for more information.
Organic and Sustainable Clothing
Organic t-shirts and other garments are made from certified organic cotton whilst our sustainable apparel is made using fabrics such as bamboo or tencel. Please read more about certifications at Our Ethics or visit our Organic Clothing information page.
Our Top T-Shirts
A great starting point for ethical t-shirt printing is our Six Of The Best T-Shirts collection. All are ethically produced and independently certified by WRAP Compliance.
