Heat Transfer Printing
Heat printing, also known as heat transfer printing, is the process of applying heat-applied materials to various items (i.e., substrates) with a heat press. Heat-applied materials contain a heat-sensitive adhesive on one side; when heat is applied by a heat press to the material, the material adheres to the substrate to which it is being applied. The end result is a decorated garment.
Heat transfer printing provides the opportunity to personalize a wide variety of items. Decorate T-shirts, uniforms, and promotional items for businesses, clubs, schools, and fashion. Items such as beach chairs, umbrellas, scrubs, jackets, and blankets can also be heat printed with your customers' logos.

Want to Add Some Bling?
Something that makes transfer printing stand out from the rest is its special effects. With a transfer you can create prints with glitter, fluorescent, metallic, felt and many others. The possibilities are almost endless.
Because it is printed on paper first and then transferred to the garment, this technique allows for more detail than the others.
