Turtlehead

One of our clients, Turtlehead, recently printed postcards with us using our Digital Daily service. They printed them to promote their clothing line which is really cool, check out their site if you haven't already.

Their designs are limited to 500 pieces and all their t-shirts are printed in Ireland on ethically made and environmentally friendly 100% cotton tshirts.

The best thing about them is that any artist can submit a piece of work to have printed on their t-shirts and if you are selceted you are paid a lump sum and 5% of the profit from the sales of your t-shirt.
