DECORATION METHODS

Heat transfers, names & numbers

Heat and pressure apply logos, names and numbers. The go-to for athletic uniforms, personalization and reflective printing for emergency responders.

A transfer is printed or cut, then applied with a heat press. It’s a clean, durable way to add individual names and numbers, put simple logos on performance fabrics, or add reflective printing to department and safety gear.

It pairs well with other methods: embroider the logo, then heat-press each person’s name or number.
