Which heat transfer label works on stretch activewear?
The label film, adhesive, artwork coverage and fabric must be tested together. Share the fabric composition, finish, stretch direction and care cycle.
Can silicone labels be applied to leggings?
Selected silicone and TPU constructions can be sampled for leggings. Waistbands, compression panels and high-extension zones require separate placement trials.
How do you evaluate sweat resistance?
Agree the conditioning method, exposure duration and acceptance criteria before testing an applied sample made with the production fabric.
Can one logo size serve a complete sportswear range?
Sometimes. Garment proportions and placement may require controlled sizes for tops, leggings and accessories, recorded under separate item codes.
What artwork is best for a stretch heat transfer label?
Provide vector artwork at finished size with spot colours, minimum line widths, relief notes and clear identification of transparent areas.
What information controls a bulk quote?
Dimensions, colours, material, fabric type, order quantity, size split, packing, destination and testing scope all affect the quotation.
