Over the past 30 years in business, the Enviro-Tote team has worked hard to perfect our craft. Whether we are producing our signature reusable tote bag, or are working on a new product prototype, we know that creating a quality product is what you expect from us.
From the outside, you may not realize just how much detail and care goes into creating one of our Enviro-Tote products. Our goal through this Behind the Scenes Series is to give you a peek behind the proverbial curtain.
Once a customer places an order, our team immediately begins the process of creating your custom product. Here is a glimpse into how that happens:
The Production Process
- Artwork is received and prepared for printing. Art department designs layout for screen burning or heat transfer printing.
- Screens are burned, or heat transfer images are printed individually.
- Material is rolled out, measured, and cut to every order on our cutting tables.
- Cut panels are sent to the printing department to be printed heat transferred.
- Once prints are carefully dried, the panels make their way over to the stitching department.
- Each tote gets stitched one by one until the order makes it to Quality Control.
- Totes are inspected against our rigorous QC standards and all that pass get boxed up to ship!
