Wholesale Iron-On Transfers for T-Shirts, Routed by Format
“Iron on” can point to a mapped rhinestone transfer, a laser-cut heat-transfer patch or another heat-applied decoration. Identify the supplied object first, then connect artwork, shirt, trial, sheet count and packing through one transfer-only order route.
01 / Route selection
Decide What the Supplier Hands Over
A transfer-only buyer receives decorations to apply elsewhere. That differs from ordering finished T-shirts and from ordering a sew-on patch. Write the scope in plain language: Teebling supplies the confirmed transfer or heat-transfer patch; the buyer, nominated decorator or garment factory supplies the shirt and performs the approved application. If the supplier is also expected to provide blanks or finished decoration, move that work into a separate OEM brief rather than leaving responsibility ambiguous.
Buyer application
Name the factory, equipment, garment and validated process that will receive the order.
Finished shirts
If completed apparel is required, request garment, size/color allocation, application and packing together.

Do Not Use Transfer, Sticker and Patch as Synonyms
The visible face, carrier, textile base, edge and reverse determine what must be inspected and how the item is handled. Three catalog references help frame the conversation, but their images do not replace a written build description.
Mapped rhinestone transfer
Product 28 records Rhinestone DMC at 20 x 18 cm and MOQ 50. Ask how the approved stone map is carried, oriented and released for the quoted order.
Laser-cut patch direction
Product 168 records fabric, rhinestones and holographic crystal with MOQ 50. No size is recorded, so finished dimensions must be supplied in the quote.
Monogram patch direction
Product 169 is a crown monogram rhinestone heat-transfer patch with MOQ 50 and no recorded size. Variable art requires its own proof control.
03 / Artwork station
Build a Physical-Size Transfer File
Submit authorized source artwork and state the final width, height, orientation and shirt placement. Review narrow gaps, small lettering and fine shapes at printed physical scale, not only on an enlarged screen. For rhinestone maps, distinguish stones from printed or fabric areas. For a laser-cut patch, identify the cut outline and visible base. For personalized monograms, separate fixed design elements from each letter or name variation. Give every approved version a stable revision code that can travel on the inner pack.
Master design
Lock dimensions, source art, construction direction, colors and coordinate origin. Attach a garment mockup with measured anchors.
Orientation
Mark top, face direction and whether artwork is viewed from the transfer or garment side during handling.
Versioning
Record every size, color or personal variation instead of changing an approved file silently.
04 / Garment station
Test the Exact Shirt Family
Record fabric composition, knit or surface texture, finish, color, seam construction and planned placement. A blank described only as cotton may still differ by blend, dye, treatment, thickness or structure. Measure the usable platen area and note pockets, seams, collars or zippers that affect contact. Follow the supplier's direction for the exact transfer and run a representative trial on the smallest and largest relevant garment sizes when placement proportion may change. The result belongs to that named transfer-and-shirt pair.
- Photograph the undecorated test zone.
- Capture equipment and support arrangement.
- Record alignment, release and surface observations.
- Retain the accepted shirt sample identity.
05 / Receiving checkpoint
Inspect the Wholesale Transfer Before Pressing
Open a labeled sample pack before releasing the production quantity. Compare design code, dimensions, orientation, visible construction, stone or component placement and carrier condition with the approved reference. Count by sheet and version. Quarantine creased, contaminated, shifted or unidentifiable pieces until the supplier provides direction; an application line is a poor place to discover that two similar designs were mixed.
Identity
Match purchase order, artwork revision, transfer label and selected reference image.
Map
Check missing, moved or unintended elements against the approved physical-size proof.
Condition
Observe flatness, carrier cleanliness, backing protection and any edge damage.
Count
Reconcile bundle, version and destination totals before material reaches the press.

Reconcile Shirts, Transfers and Test Allowance
One shirt ordinarily needs one matching decoration in the defined placement, but program totals can include multiple designs, front/back positions, size groups, samples, operator setup, replacement stock or several factory destinations. Create a line for every transfer version and reconcile it against the garment purchase. The minimum order for products 28, 168 and 169 is currently 50 pieces, but commercial allocation and current availability are confirmed in the quote.

Pack Sheets for Identification and Flat Handling
Describe inner-pack protection, interleaving or separation in relation to the actual quoted transfer construction. Keep different artwork revisions, dimensions, colors and orientations apart. Every bundle should carry a readable design code, quantity and destination. If a factory receives only part of the total, provide a carton map that reconciles all splits. Store and handle the delivered transfer in accordance with supplier instructions; do not invent universal shelf-life or environmental claims.
- Protect the working face and carrier from dust, rubbing and folds.
- Prevent a patch edge or laser-cut detail from catching another piece.
- Place a receiving record outside the protected inner pack.
- Retain an approved sample separately from production stock.
08 / Dispatch request
Send the Transfer-Only Purchase Brief
State the requested format, authorized artwork, final dimensions, top orientation, shirt specification, placement, quantities by version, application site, sample need, inner-pack count, destination and requested timing. Reference product 28, 168 or 169 only when its documented image and material direction is relevant. Teebling can then confirm the offered construction, current commercial details and testing path without blurring a transfer sheet into a patch or finished garment. The artwork file guide helps organize production sources, the heat-press test guide defines controlled garment evidence, and the export packing guide covers longer distribution routes. Keep each linked record attached to the same transfer revision.

Wholesale Iron-On Transfer FAQ
Use these answers to make a request precise before materials reach a decoration line. The accepted transfer, garment test and written supplier direction govern the actual order.
What does wholesale iron-on transfer mean on this page?
It means a transfer-only decoration intended for a buyer-managed application workflow. The quote must still identify the actual construction, carrier or base, artwork, dimensions, quantity and supplier-directed application; iron-on is not one universal material.
Which catalog items can be used as format references?
Product 28 is a Rhinestone DMC transfer recorded at 20 x 18 cm with MOQ 50. Products 168 and 169 are heat-transfer patches with MOQ 50; their sizes are not recorded. Use their names and images to discuss directions, then obtain a written specification.
Is a heat-transfer patch the same as a carrier-sheet transfer?
Not necessarily. A patch may include a defined fabric or textile base and edge, while a mapped rhinestone transfer may arrive on a carrier without that patch perimeter. Ask the supplier to identify every visible and hidden layer.
Can one press instruction be used for all wholesale transfers?
No universal instruction should be inferred. Follow the direction supplied for the exact transfer and test it with the intended shirt fabric, finish, placement and equipment before releasing a garment run.
How should transfer-only orders be counted and packed?
State pieces or sheets per artwork revision, dimensions, orientation, variant code, inner-pack count and factory destination. Keep designs separated and protected in the condition specified for the quoted construction.
