Transfer print is an affordable option for one-off or small to medium orders and requires no minimum order quantities or set-up charges; often making it a desirable choice. The process uses vinyl that is cut to shape and heat pressed onto the item, and dependent on the design and desired outcome, there are two types of transfer print options available. Deciding factors include the complexity and the number of colours featured in the artwork. Unsure which option you need? Keep reading.

Vinyl Print VS. Digital Print

The specific method of vinyl print uses one colour of vinyl to create your design. It is cut to shape with a digital plotter and applied to the garment using a heat press. This option lends itself well to designs that are simple, use only one single colour, commonly used for block logos, text or numbers. As for digital print, this method is best suited for designs that feature high-resolution images, photos, intricate details, multiple colours and gradients. This method starts with your artwork being printed onto white vinyl, cut to shape with the digital plotter and then also applied through the heat press.
