Transfer Printing

What is Transfer Printing?

Transfer Printing is great for single colour designs, individual names, and numbers.

Used extensively on Sportswear eg : Football shirts and commonly used on Hen and Stag and Tour garments.

There are a huge array of colours available ranging from standard colours, high visiibilty and  Florescents.

Each design is cut out from a sheet of transfer vinyl using a machine, it is then placed over the garment and heat sealed at high temperature. Modern vinyls are very tough and durable and bond very firmly to the garment and with a little care will last a long time.

Transfer printing is the most economic form of printing for smaller quantities or combined with embroidery to personalise individual garments.

Transfer Artwork Guide

How do I send my artwork?

For transfer printing artwork needs to be sent to us in a vectorised format. Because everything is cut out by a machine the lines need to be very precise, and this can only really be achieved by using a vector.

We also require all text to be converted to outline as we only have a limited selection of fonts!

What is a vector image?

A full explanation of vector formats can be found in our screenprinting section

If you don't have your image in a vectorised format we do offer a service to redraw your artwork, please contact us for more information.
