Coatings for Heat Transfer Printing

 

Heat transfer printing provides an innovative alternative to decorating by means of silk-screening onto wood, metal or other temperature resistant undercoatings.  This technique is ideal for game boards, trays, puzzles, (children's) furniture, and other plain parts that need to be decorated.  

Complete picutres, with a vast array of photo-quality colours, can be printed in one work cycle- without transfer problems or in-between drying.  Items can be packed immediately.  

Pre-treatment

Depending on the surface, parts will be pre-treated in 1-3 coatings of white or clear paint.  After drying, the parts can be printed via the heat transfer printing technique.  Heat transfer printing also is suitable for small parts (puzzle pieces, dice, etc.).  We offer a special coating for the >tumbling technique.  

Resistant to cracking and scratching

During the printing phase, the dyes sublimate into the paint, so that the picture is not on the paint, but rather in it.  Thus your product is resistant to cracking and scratching.  

Additional Advantages

Heat transfer printing is a mechanically and chemically resistant process.  Furthermore, you can deliver your product more quickly with limited storage costs, as parts are only printed after a work order is made.  

Heat transfer printing can be used for rational finishing and innovative design.  If you would like to try this technique, we will send you a sample and paper- or we'll print your part for you.
