Choose the right area page for your print shop
If you run a screen-printing shop, the best delivery option usually depends on where you are, how often you reorder, and whether you need new frames, re-stretching or mesh count matching on the same job. Our area pages group the places we serve most often so you can check what applies to your area before sending an enquiry through the contact page.
The listed locations cover Gauteng and major coastal centres, but many orders move beyond those routes as well. If you work from a small workshop, a high-volume garment printer, or a setup that handles repeat branding runs, it helps to choose the page nearest to your town and then match your order to the service you need.
Germiston and the East Rand base for local supply
Our Germiston base supports nearby print shops that need quicker turnaround on mesh, frame prep and repeat orders. This is the main point for intake, frame stretching and dispatch packing, so local businesses in the East Rand often use it for ongoing production support and screen setup advice.
- Germiston Supply for walk-in collection and local orders
- East Rand Supply for factories, sign shops and garment printers
- Johannesburg Delivery for city and inner-suburb deliveries
- Midrand Delivery for workshops, agencies and mixed print rooms
For Johannesburg and nearby industrial areas, timing often matters because production schedules can shift quickly. When you need a fresh batch of screens, a tension check or mesh bonding on a repeat order, it is useful to send the full size and mesh count up front so the right job is prepared first time.
Johannesburg and Pretoria printing schedules
Johannesburg and Pretoria customers often need a steady supply of pre-stretched aluminium frames because orders can move from sampling to production very quickly. In these centres, screen-printing mesh counts are commonly matched to the ink, detail level and substrate, whether the job is for garments, labels, posters or industrial markings.
We regularly support customers who need:
- New frame stretching for fresh stock screens
- Frame re-stretching when old mesh has lost tension
- Mesh count matching for finer detail or heavier deposits
- Screen inspection before repeat production runs
Load-shedding can interrupt drying and setup times, so many shops plan ahead and keep spare frames ready. If that sounds familiar, a repeat order service with clear counts and sizes can save time when the workshop is under pressure.
Durban and the coast need careful frame prep
Durban deliveries often suit shops that work in humidity, where mesh behaviour and frame prep matter more than inland. Coastal air can affect storage and handling, so pre-stretched frames need to be checked properly and kept ready for production without unnecessary delay. That includes the way the mesh bonds, how evenly it stretches, and whether the frame remains true after repeated use.
Shops near the coast also tend to ask for batch screen prep and tension checking before a busy run. That is especially useful when you are printing large colour blocks or fine halftones, because the wrong tension can affect registration and print clarity.
Cape Town and Gqeberha delivery needs
Cape Town and Gqeberha customers often work with tighter delivery planning because stock may need to move across longer distances from Gauteng. For those orders, clear sizing and a proper count on each screen helps the dispatch team pack correctly and reduces back-and-forth on the order form.
If your shop handles varied work, use the area page to think through what you need most often:
- Custom frame sizing for unusual artwork or machine use
- Mesh count matching for specific print detail
- Screen setup advice for new operators or busy teams
- Dispatch packing for safer transport between provinces
In both cities, printers often keep a mix of coarse and finer mesh counts on hand so they can switch between bold colour work and finer detail without stopping production.
How to plan a delivery from your town
Once you know your area, the next step is to match your screen size, mesh count and frame requirement to the job at hand. If you are ordering from a town not listed on the main cards, the nearby region page usually gives a good guide to the type of service most printers need. That includes whether you need a fresh build, re-stretching, or just inspection before the next run.
Helpful order details include the frame dimensions, the mesh count you want, whether the screens are for textile or graphic work, and how many pieces are needed. For customers who print every week, the combination of repeat order service and clear sizing makes the process straightforward and helps keep the workshop moving.
