Heat transfer logos for jerseys, activewear and team sports
Sportswear labels and graphics need stretch recovery, wash resistance and soft feel. Screen printing on transfer film allows controlled spot colour and layered effects; qualify each fabric and care cycle, especially dyed polyester and elastane blends.
Production route
Check stretch recovery and dye migration on dyed polyester or elastane blends, then retest after the specified wash cycle.
Equipment for printing the transfer layer; heat pressing and final garment qualification are separate steps.
