Olympic Pride!

While watching the Winter Olympics this weekend, take a closer look at the logos on the uniforms and garments worn by the athletes- they may seem a bit familiar. Our sponsor companies’ products can be seen all over the slopes, ice and village. Here are just a few examples of using digital heat transfers to decorate some items other than hockey sweaters and sweatshirts.
These garments were decorated using full color, digital transfers. From Marc DiSchiavi, a sales representative from Stahls’ Canada:
“Both the Canadian Torch Relay uniforms by HBC (Hudson’s Bay Co.) and the Canadian Olympic Speed Skating Team are using CAD-COLOUR® Extra White full colour logos. The Bell, Cheerios, Olympic logos etc… are created by Stahls. The HBC logos were actually decorated by Stahls’ Canada as well.”

Teflon Pillows

When heat printing, it’s important to have a flat, even surface so the transfer is applied with direct and even temperature and pressure. Some garments are made with heavy seams, buttons, snaps or zippers that prevent that flat surface.
Use a teflon pillow on the inside of the garment so the seams, buttons and snaps can sink into the foam, creating an even surface to help your heat press evenly apply your transfer.
