IndPrint

Hexis UK has announced a new premium solvent free film for hot transfer applications – HFLEX 100P.

The 90 µ premium opaque cast polyurethane film is suitable for application onto pre-washed cotton, polyester and Lycra and is ideal for the printing of designs onto sportswear, T-shirts, hats and much more. It is also Oeko-Tex approved for children’s wear and babies’ clothes.

Backed with a 100 µ matt clear PET self-adhesive liner to enhance the ease of positioning, the water based polyurethane film is both solvent and odour free (no VOCs). This thin, flexible and stretchable face film offers excellent cutting and weeding characteristics, even on lettering as small as 3 mm or the most complex of designs, and will not tear during weeding or application.

Managing director Scott Wilkins commented, ‘HFlex 100P is a great addition to our range of products for textile decoration. This high quality film is available in a wide gamut of colours – with more being added on an on-going basis – and has a true anti-reflection matt finish, similar to that achieved by traditional screen printing.’

He continued, ‘Application is simple: you simply cut a mirror image of your design and weed after cutting. Then, position your design and use a heat press to transfer the design onto the garment of your choice. It really is that straightforward.’

The film does not wrinkle on garments and ensures constant quality and colour stability. The finished printed and pressed products can be washed at up to 60°C and ironed at temperatures of up to 160°C.

HFlex 100P is available with immediate effect and can be purchased online at https://online.hexis.co.uk/Home in full or part rolls with next working day delivery. Pricing starts from £5.36 per linear metre at 500 mm wide and reduces depending on quantity purchased.
