Evans offers all of the most popular imprint methods, including screen printing, digital printing and full-color sublimation. Let clients know they can decorate the front, back and sides of their tote bags too for full-coverage customization. Pro tip: Bring a few samples or virtuals on your sales presentations and let clients see the striking results possible from each method.
