Product Introduction - Transfer Film

I. Product Definition

Transfer Film ( Transfer Film ) is a functional film material widely used in packaging, printing, textiles, building materials, electronics and other industries. Through certain heat pressing, UV , pressure or other methods, the patterns, layers or coatings on the film are completely transferred to the target substrate.

II. Product Advantages

Fine patterns: High-precision printing, clear pattern edges, distinct layers, and vibrant colors.

Cost saving: Reduce traditional processes such as spraying and electroplating, saving labor and materials.

Environmentally friendly and safe: Most transfer films meet environmental standards, are free of heavy metals, VOC and have low emissions.

Wide applicability: Can be transferred to various substrates such as plastics, metals, wood, textiles, and paper.

Easy to operate: Can be used in a variety of ways such as heat transfer, cold transfer, and pressure transfer.

Good durability: The transferred patterns have good abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and UV resistance.
