What is Heat Transfer Printing?

Heat transfer printing is a method of applying designs to fabric using heat and pressure. Your artwork is first placed on a transfer sheet or film, then pressed onto the garment to create a sharp, vibrant finish.

It’s popular for logos, team jerseys, promotional gear, and small-batch custom apparel because it produces detailed results with minimal setup. Unlike screen printing, which requires stencils, heat transfers allow for on-demand printing with no costly setup fees.

Types of Heat Transfer Printing

Heat transfer printing includes several methods, each with unique strengths:

1. Vinyl Heat Transfers

• Uses sheets of colored vinyl cut into shapes, logos, or numbers.
• Perfect for sports jerseys, team uniforms, and bold lettering.
• Extremely durable and wash-resistant, though not suited for photo-quality designs.

2. Digital Heat Transfers (Printed Transfers)

• Your design is digitally printed on special transfer paper and then heat-pressed.
• Great for logos, multi-color graphics, and short runs.
• Works well on both light and dark fabrics with vibrant, detailed results.

3. Sublimation Transfers

• Heat turns dye into gas, bonding it with polyester fibers.
• Creates lightweight, breathable prints that never crack or peel.
• Ideal for sportswear, performance apparel, and light colored polyester garments.

4. DTF (Direct-to-Film) Transfers

• Designs are printed on a film, coated with adhesive powder, and pressed onto garments.
• Works on cotton, polyester, blends, and stretch fabrics.
• Produces soft, vibrant, flexible prints with high durability.
• Perfect for detailed, full-color designs, making it one of the most versatile options today.
