When it comes to representing Tyndale Christian School, it’s more than just apparel. It’s about pride, confidence, and showing up as one in their custom striped rugby tops.
Quickmerch received an inquiry from Tyndale Christian College simply asking, “Can you help us! We need some rugby tops printed in multiple locations, my artwork is not the best and I have already received quotes from other suppliers which seem very high! I should also add, I need these quickly for our students to use for a special occasion within 2 weeks.”
After some quick consultation with Max at the school, we established that we could actually use our own in-house printing (heat press machines), our graphic designer tidied up the artwork so it was print ready, we could save Tyndale Christian School money by “ganging” up sheets using our SupaColour transfers and speed up the process by using our inhouse print facility based at Richmond (South Australia).
Max received his rugby tops ahead of time, approximately 30% cheaper than any other quoted and even delivered on Good Friday from our owners house – to say Max was ecstatic would be an understatement.
So in short, all parts of Quickmerch were utilised, graphic design, efficient professional sales consultation, inhouse printing, quality garments from a leading supplier and delivery ahead of schedule.
At Quickmerch we pride ourselves on understanding what our client needs, offering solutions on how to best brand the product and at the best possible price without sacrificing quality and leaving a lasting impression with our customer in the best possible way.

This CMYK branding process is produced by printing artwork onto a vinyl material with strong adhesive on the reverse. The branded area is then coated with a crystal-clear resin. Once dry, the finished decal is applied to the product and the adhesive forms a permanent bond.
