Substation Printed T-Shirt

HebTroCo

£50

Handmade in Manchester and hand screen printed in Mytholmroyd. It’s with great pleasure that we’re launching the first in a series of hand dyed shirts from the hard-to-pronounce place right next to where we’re from. This first t-shirt, limited to a run of 50 has been hand screenprinted by Stanley. He runs his workshop in a tiny disused electrical substation, five minutes walk from our unit door. We like the idea that his setup stands on foundations that once supported tens of thousands of volts. It’s powerful stuff. 185gsm cotton, the same as all our other made in Manchester t-shirts.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as HEBTROCO LTD, number 09958194. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
