How AKD Ink Gets Your Custom Apparel From Idea to Doorstep

A simple, in-house 4-step workflow. Share your specifications and deadline so the team can confirm the production schedule.

In a hurry?

Need it fast? We do rush — in-house.

AKD Ink coordinates screen preparation, printing, and finishing from our Chatsworth shop. Rush requests are reviewed against capacity and the production schedule before timing is confirmed.

Timing depends on job complexity, quantity, artwork, garment availability, and current capacity. Confirm it with the team when you submit a quote.

    Quote timing confirmed by the team

    Design & Quote

    Tell us what you need through our instant online quote calculator — quantity, garment, decoration method, and timeline. We’ll review your artwork and send a detailed quote so you can confirm pricing and production timing.

  2. 2
    Timing confirmed after approval

    Proof & Approval

    Our prepress team reviews every artwork file and prepares a virtual or digital mockup so you can see placement, sizing, and color before any ink hits fabric. You approve the proof and we’re ready to schedule production.

    Production timing confirmed in the quote

    Production

    Everything happens in-house at our Chatsworth shop: screen burn, print, embroidery, laser engraving, or UV print. Every order goes through a quality check before it leaves the floor. The team confirms production timing based on your approved specifications.
