Don’t choose fabrics
It is suitable for all kinds of fabrics. There is no requirement for cotton content. Pure cotton, dark and light colors, polyester, etc. can be clearly hot stamped.
This means that Flashpoint Intelligent Manufacturing can develop clothing with more fabrics, and merchants will have more customization options in the future.
Bright colors
The printing of digital heat transfer is bright, the color saturation is high, and it has a photo-quality effect. Especially on dark clothing, the expression is excellent!
If there are artists’ co-branded clothing in the store, it is highly recommended to use this process, as the color reproduction is high.
High precision
Although it is not as fine as digital direct-injection printing, digital heat transfer is completely stress-free for making lines and hollow patterns above 1mm.
English letters or artistic line illustrations can be well presented, no need to spray processing fluid, and it feels dry to the touch.
Washing-resistant
Digital heat transfer patterns have strong adhesion and are not easy to fade. The washing fastness is high, which is much improved compared to digital direct printing.
However, merchants still need to remind consumers that all printed clothing on the market should be washed by hand as much as possible, and they should avoid scrubbing the printed area vigorously.
Fast shipping
Using high-temperature pressing, it dries immediately without the need for plate making. The shipping speed is 30-40% higher than that of the digital direct injection process.
When the delivery time is very tight, the digital heat transfer process is the best choice for businesses with urgent orders and high washing requirements.
Single piece customization
Silk screen printing and offset heat transfer have minimum order quantities, while digital heat transfer can achieve flexible production.
