Digital Heat Transfer

Digital heat transfer is the process of transferring your logo onto garments, caps or bags using heat. All we need from you is a digital quality image of your logo along with the required size for the logo.

The image is entered into a digital printer which prints the logo in reverse onto a piece of film. The film has an adhesive backing which melts when heated. The film is placed onto the flat garment and a heat press is applied which melts the adhesive and affixes the logo to the garment.

Digital Heat Transfer Cost

The price of digital heat transfer depends on the size of the logo and the quantity of garments. The higher the quantity of garments, the lower the unit price of the transfer. Send your logo to us for a transfer price quote. There is usually no set-up fee for larger orders.
