Supacolour - An Innovative Way of Producing Digital Transfers

Supacolour is a revolutionary new way of decorating uniform apparel. It is a hybrid of an inkjet and the traditional process of a heat applied transfer, but produces a higher quality finish than traditional digital transfers with much brighter colours. So what makes it stand out:

Colour Vibrancy – Compare a Supacolour print side by side with a normal digital transfer to see the difference in terms of colour brightness and vibrancy. Super smooth gradient profiles and pixelsharp photographic images also.

Fine detailing for complex logos – When a logo has fine detail components or small text most of the time you usually need to set the art up on a ‘block’ background with standard digital transfers. This may alter the look of the logo, Supacolour allows for a true representation.
