From the perspective of a professional textile embellishment partner, the same pattern appears time and again: When jersey launches become unnecessarily stressful, it is rarely due to a single mistake – and even more rarely due to the embellishment technology itself. The real pressure builds because decisions are made in parallel over many months and are only brought together very late in the [...]
WHY HEAT TRANSFERS TAKE TIME – AND WHY PRODUCTION IS RARELY THE BOTTLENECK
Yes, the production of heat transfer logos can take several weeks. That alone, however, is rarely the reason why projects come under time pressure. In practice, most delays occur before production even starts – during alignment, testing, approvals and technical clarification. A typical scenario: The launch date is set. The garments are planned.

Time pressure builds up, and the focus automatically shifts to production. This article puts things into perspective [...]
FROM LOGO TO DATA POINT: WHY TEXTILE BRANDING IS GOING DIGITAL – AND WHY RFID IS THE KEY
Textiles are produced, packed, shipped, distributed – and then often disappear into the blind spots of the supply chain.

Because your logos can do more than look good – they can carry data. From Textile Branding to Digital Identity Your [...]

FROM MERCHANDISE TO PLATFORM: HOW CONNECTED JERSEYS OPEN NEW BUSINESS MODELS FOR CLUBS
Merchandise has a structural problem: it only sells once. So what now? Connected Jerseys solve this problem – transforming products into recurring revenue, measurable data points, and activatable fan touchpoints. Imagine this: it’s late in the evening, you’re working on next season or your next collection. Things are going well, but you know one thing for sure – once a jersey is sold, the value usually ends there.
