Heat transfer vinyl is a specialty vinyl that can be used on certain fabrics and materials to create designs and promotional products. It comes in a roll or sheet form with an adhesive backing so it can be cut, weeded, and placed on a substrate for heat application. Heat transfer vinyl is made in single colors and also has special options such as patterned, glitter, flocked, holographic, glow-in-the-dark, reflective and 3D puff.
Customization of Fashion Merchandise and Emergence of the Personalization Economy Drive Product Demand
In the past era that focused on output, clothing production paid more attention to the design and processing of the assembly line, and buyers were willing to reduce prices and accept standardized products. However, with technological advancements and increasing public benefits, personalization has become one of the most relevant and popular trends in modern retail. Sublimation vinyl is a common custom-made material in the apparel industry.
In particular, there is a lot of room for personalized needs of downstream customers, and most retailers and fashion brands are temporarily unable to provide consumers with the experience they expect. At this point, many people who dare to try choose to design and process it themselves, or send it to a specialized heat transfer process technology provider to modify the garment as required. It is precisely because of the huge demand and profit margin that the thermal transfer vinyl industry has developed rapidly, satisfying a large number of consumers with ideas and design senses, and bringing convenience and innovation opportunities to people.
In addition, sublimation transfer vinyl is affordable and cost-effective, allowing people to print on items economically and quickly. And the printing and transformation process will not affect the quality and service life of the original items, but will have excellent effects and amazing appearance.
