flock heat transfer
Flock heat transfer is an innovative textile decoration technique that combines the durability of heat transfer with the luxurious, velvet-like texture of flock material. This process involves applying tiny fiber particles to a heat-sensitive adhesive, which is then transferred onto the target fabric through heat and pressure. The technology creates a raised, soft-touch finish that stands out from traditional printing methods. The process begins with a specialized adhesive design that's printed onto transfer paper, followed by the application of finely cut synthetic fibers that stand perpendicular to the surface. When heat and pressure are applied, these fibers bond permanently to the fabric, creating a durable and visually striking design. Flock heat transfers are particularly valued in the fashion and sportswear industries for their ability to create premium-looking designs with excellent wash resistance. The technology allows for intricate detail and sharp edges in designs, making it perfect for logos, text, and complex patterns. One of the key advantages is the versatility in application, as it works effectively on various fabric types, including cotton, polyester, and blended materials. The process is also environmentally conscious, as it produces minimal waste and uses water-based adhesives.
