ECOBLOCK VS. ECOFLEX: WHICH HEAT TRANSFER FOR SUBLIMATED JERSEYS?
Picture the worst-case scenario It’s matchday. The new jerseys are ready, the fans are in the stands, sponsors are watching, and the cameras are rolling. But during warm-up, you notice something alarming: the sponsor logo on the crisp white jersey suddenly looks pink. The sublimation dye from the fabric has bled through the logo. This issue is called dye migration. For clubs and brands, it means complaints, costly re-productions, and unwanted stress. But there’s another risk too: when a logo cracks, feels stiff, or ruins the comfort of a performance jersey. That’s why the big question is: Which transfer protects [...]

HOW TO IMPLEMENT THE DIGITAL PRODUCT PASSPORT (DPP) IN TEXTILES – ACCORDING TO EU REGULATIONS
What if every piece of clothing you made could tell its story – from the fibres it’s woven with to how it should be recycled? And what if the EU was about to make that story mandatory, with penalties for brands that can’t tell it? If you're manufacturing or selling textiles in the EU, you're about to face one of the most significant shifts in the industry: the Digital Product Passport (DPP) will soon become mandatory. That means every product will need a digital identity – one that tracks material origins, carbon footprint, care, and circularity. By the end of [...]

Are all heat transfers really the same? If you’ve ever compared heat transfers from different suppliers, you’ve probably thought: “They all seem pretty similar.” FLAT PU , 3D SILICONE , or 3D EMBROIDERY – no matter where you look, the products appear identical.

At dekoGraphics, we’ve helped leading global brands and elite sports teams navigate these challenges. And [...]
