The Teepig story

We started in the print industry in 1996. To begin with, we offered screen printing and DTG (direct to garment) printing. We honed our skills on both traditional and modern equipment, and we have worked with thousands of businesses since.

As the internet grew in the early 2000s, we saw that our clients would want to order online. By 2006 we were building e-commerce websites. Teepig is the result: an online entrance to our print shop. You design and order online, and real people print, check and pack your order.

Over the years, our printing has moved to DTF (direct to film). DTF is what lets us offer very competitive prices and fast turnaround: you receive your order within a week.

We know the print industry well and keep a close eye on what is new. There are more exciting processes to come.
