Redwall Becomes State of the Art with Brother Digital Line

Redwall Becomes State of the Art with Brother Digital Line

How one apparel decorator elevated quality, speed, and efficiency with Brother’s fully automated DTG system.

When Jeff Meilander founded Redwall in 2002, his mission was simple: print shirts for his band and friends in Milwaukee’s music scene. Two decades later, his company has evolved into a high-volume, full-service apparel decorator serving national clients with screen printing, embroidery, sublimation, and digital direct-to-garment (DTG) production.

Now headquartered in Oak Creek, Wisconsin—with more than 135,000 square feet across two facilities—Redwall continues to push the limits of what’s possible in on-demand apparel production. The latest leap forward came with the installation of the Brother Digital Line, a fully automated DTG production system that integrates pretreating, printing, curing, folding, and labeling—all managed by a single operator.
