ABOUT BLACK FOREST

We’re not just another print shop, we’re a force built from grit, craftsmanship, and a relentless pursuit of better.

Black Forest Print Lab was forged in the trenches. Born from long nights, small wins, and the kind of hard-earned lessons you only get by doing the work yourself, we’ve grown into a trusted print partner for businesses, builders, events, and mission-driven organizations.

We understand what it takes to build something from the ground up, because we’ve lived it.

From our humble start with a single press and a garage full of ambition, we’ve grown into a modern, streamlined production lab designed to serve clients who value quality, reliability, and real connection. Whether you’re ordering 50 shirts or 5,000, our goal is the same: to deliver precision, consistency, and excellence, every single time.

We specialize in screen printing that works as hard as you do. Durable, clean, and built to represent your brand the way it deserves.

And this is just the beginning.

The next chapter of Black Forest Print Lab includes expanded capabilities, AI-integrated systems, and a bold vision to help more businesses scale their impact with apparel that speaks for them. We’re not chasing trends, we’re building a legacy of dependable service and unmatched standards.

This isn’t just about ink and fabric.

It’s about trust. It’s about pride in every piece.

It’s about standing behind what we print, because we know what it stands for.

Welcome to Black Forest Print Lab.

Let’s build something that lasts.

🔥 FROM THE FOUNDER

I never set out to build a print shop, I set out to build something I could stand behind.

Something real. Reliable. Respected.

I’ve worn every hat in this business. Designed the art, cleaned the screens, printed every order by hand, sometimes late into the night. Not because it was easy. But because it mattered.

I’ve worked with startups, local legends, non-profits, and national campaigns. And no matter the size, the goal is the same: print it like it’s our name on the line, because it is.

This shop was built with grit, humility, and an obsession with getting better. And it’s just the beginning.
