Silicone Heat Transfer
Silicone Heat Transfer Printing
Silicone HeatTransfer printing is a technique where designs or patterns are transferred onto fabric using a carrier paper or film with the application of high heat. It is particularly ideal for detailed and colorful designs and can be applied quickly. This method is widely popular among garment manufacturers and print workshops due to its efficiency and precision.
Advantages of Transfer Printing Over Direct Printing
Flexible Design Application: The transfer method allows for the application of a wide range of designs and colors on fabrics. Complex and multi-colored visuals can be easily applied without any color limitations.
Low Production Quantities: Transfer printing is ideal for small production runs, offering a more economical option compared to techniques with higher per-unit costs.
High Print Quality and Detail: This technique provides the ability to transfer fine details clearly, making it ideal for intricate designs, small fonts, or gradient colors.
Quick Application: It offers a fast and efficient printing process, requiring fewer steps and enabling quicker production.
Advantages of Using Silicone in Heat Transfer Printing:
Durability and Flexibility: The use of silicone in transfer printing makes the print more flexible and allows it to move with the fabric. As a result, the prints won’t crack or peel when the garment stretches.
Non-Slip and Soft Feel: Silicone adds a non-slip texture and offers a soft touch, making it ideal for sportswear and baby clothing.
High Heat Resistance: Silicone withstands high temperatures, ensuring that the prints last long and remain undamaged during washing.
Visual and Tactile Quality: Silicone-based transfer prints can create embossed and matte/semi-gloss surfaces, offering an aesthetic appearance and a pleasant tactile feel.
