| ABOUT HEAT TRANSFER PRINTS | ||
| WHAT IS A HEAT TRANSFER? A heat transfer is a digital print that is printed on a special vinyl and pressed onto the fabric with a heat press. Heat transfers are printed with a large format printer using solvent based inks, then they are cut out with the machine, lined up to the fabric and pressed into place with a high temperature heat press.Our digitally printed heat transfers are printed full colour with eco solvent inks onto a quality textile vinyl. Heat transfer prints require a computer generated artwork to print from, a cutting line must then be created in order for the print to be cut out. Smaller text and images do not work well as they have a small surface area to adhere to the garment and may require a outline or block around them so that they adhere to the fabic. Generally heat transfer prints take around 2-3 working days to complete. |

| This method of printing is not as hard wearing as screen printing, but it is ideal for quick turnaround, one-off shirts, small print runs with many colours as well as individual names and numbers. |
