screenprinting service for ceramic and glass

Our art department will show clients colour proofs on the article of their choice via computer. We mix and match to colour specifications using a Pantone colour guide, or we match to the computer screen if you send us a copy of the design.

Colour combinations can produce the most extraordinary and exciting finishes. Ceramic and glass inks are transformed in a kiln at high temperatures, so one has to be able to envisage what the colour will look like once it is fired. The process is pure magic!

Transfers are a wonderfully versatile medium, allowing for designs to be reproduced in a host of colours - from very bold, bright multicoloured designs, to sepia tones and fine 4 colour half tone prints - the possibilities are endless!

While based in Cape Town, South Africa, McMasters services are available to clients all over the world. Postage of transfers is easy and quick, and we send clients a range of postage options to choose from.

The South African currency is extremely favourable for customers from abroad, enabling international clients to add value to their marketing, promotional and advertising campaigns at half the cost they would normally pay

Our clients include world-renowned ceramicists, glass artists, large corporations, well-known restaurants and brand name chain stores. Our knowledge and expertise is ever evolving and the combined use of computers and traditional craftsmanship allow us to create transfers of unwavering quality and durability.

McMasters' uncompromising commitment to producing top-class screenprinted transfers sees us source our raw materials from all over the world. We pride ourselves on our expertise in this field, manufacturing transfers at competitive prices in the shortest possible time, whilst maintaining absolute integrity and a commitment to our diverse client base.
