I bet you never knew the interesting facts about heat transfer clothing labels

Oct. 19, 2021

Heat Transfer Labels

Heat transfer labels are also known as "tagless labels" because the image, artwork or label information is fixed directly to the garment. The apparel industry is using this well-known method to customize t-shirts to get rid of traditional labels.

 

The process of heat transfer printing

Heat transfer is a two-step process of printing on fabric. Heat and pressure are used to transfer the design from the paper to the fabric. First, the artwork is printed on wax paper using special inks. Second, the design is transferred to the fabric by using heat and heat pressure; similar to an iron. The heat triggers this special ink to create an adhesive on the other side of the wax paper and the ink sticks to the fabric; the wax paper is peeled off and the design remains. Over the years, transfer printing has become increasingly popular because full color images can be printed on the fabric. This process allows you to print a full color image on a garment. It is a simple process that can take 3-5 minutes to produce an item.

Apply heat transfer labels in the right way

1. Place the paper or label the right way!

Contrary to some heat transfer papers commonly used for custom t-shirts, tagless heat transfer labels are transparent so you can see both sides of the design.

Therefore, there are no mistakes, just place the label design up and the backing backwards.

If your labelless label comes with a white surface, it must be placed upwards and the reverse design downwards.

Warning: If the adhesive side is heated directly or placed in the wrong way, it may stick to the press and be difficult to remove.

2. Set up your household iron or heat press the right way!

Whether using an iron or a heat press, the temperature must be set between 302 and 320ºF (150-160ºC). Warning. If the temperature is below this range, the label design will not transfer properly to the garment. Conversely, if the temperature is above the optimal range, the kraft backing may melt.

3. Correct press time!

Hot press: 8 seconds.

Household iron: 8-12 seconds

4. Peel off after heating.

There are two types of heat transfer labels: hot peel and cold peel, each of which differs from the other only in the way they must be peeled. On the one hand, the hot peel ones must be peeled off immediately before pressing, pulling quickly from one of the kraft back corners until it is completely removed. On the other hand, cold peel requires you to wait until the heat transfer label has cooled again. After that, you will be able to remove them quickly, securing the garment to remove the kraft film.
