Features of thermal transfer printing from Pakotek
What is thermal transfer printing? This is a service that makes it possible to apply images to various clothes using high temperature. A good choice for operational branding.
Thermal transfer is a technology that can make clothes for sports or work unique. Of course, no one else will have this, considering the fact that the print for thermal transfer printing is chosen by the customer himself. If necessary, our specialists will adjust the (individually developed) layout received from him.
Thermal transfer is used to print prints on ready-made (dark or light) clothes made of natural or synthetic materials.
The service involves the use of several types of film: – thin and elastic flex film; – velvet-like flock film. It is worth noting that the flex film is resistant to deformation. It can create images endowed with various effects, for example, those with a reflective surface. Applying prints to the product takes place in several stages. First, the specialist refines the design and cuts out elements from the film to later compose the image. He applies the prepared film to the fabric base so that it is fixed with the help of a press under the influence of high temperature. A special plotter is used for thermal transfer (screen) printing of full-color images.
