What is heat transfer vinyl?
Heat transfer vinyl is a text or design printed onto a single-coloured foil – and here comes the magic: all the excess foil is manually removed, leaving only the finished design ready to be applied to the fabric. It's easy to apply using either an iron or a heat press and gives a beautiful, professional result in no time.
The heat transfer vinyls are available in a wide range of colours, designs and sizes and are designed to last – even after repeated washing.
Unleash your creativity with heat transfer vinyl
Heat transfer vinyl is not just practical – it's a fantastic way to express style, identity and personality on textiles. Whether you want to create a professional look for your company, give your home decor a fun twist or create something unique at home, heat transfer vinyl opens up a world of possibilities.
Our heat transfer vinyls are made from specially developed foil that is designed to adhere securely and beautifully to textiles. The range is broad – from discreet designs to vibrant, eye-catching designs in different thicknesses and patterns. This makes it easy to find the perfect expression for your project – and your personality.
How easy is it to apply?
You don't need advanced equipment or special skills to get started. A regular iron and a plan, a hard surface are all you need. In just 15-20 seconds, your heat transfer vinyl is melted into the fabric and ready to use.
To ensure the best result, we recommend following our guide – you'll find it easily under "Downloads" on your account.
Durability you can rely on
When a heat transfer vinyl is correctly applied, it becomes a part of the fabric – and often lasts longer than the fabric itself.
The materials we use are also skin-friendly and can withstand even the hottest washes – up to 80 °C, depending on the type of foil. Many of our foils are also OEKO-TEX® 100 certified, so you can use them with confidence, even on baby clothes and sensitive skin.
Flexibility and functionality in one
Heat transfer vinyls are not just beautiful – they're also functional. Use them for labelling, name tags, or organizing your wardrobe. If the fabric needs to be given away or sold? No problem. The heat transfer vinyl can be carefully steamed off, or a new one applied on top. The adhesive residue will still be visible, but this won't affect the fabric's functionality.
Heat transfer vinyls are, in short, the perfect tool for both professional and creative souls who want to make textiles more personal, practical – and not least unique. Need help with your next project? We're here to guide you!
