Victory Design


Victory design is a company that provides the vinyl material that is use in the T-shirt printing industry for heat transfer printing. They have just brought out a new product called Colourprint Plus which is part of their easymark garment film range. Whereas this product is very similar to other vinyls from their range, it has additional benefits. It is extremely easy to weed and is ideal for both large and small detailed images. It also does not need application tape to apply it to the garment.

It comes in white matt and can be printed on by Echo and true solvent printers. It can be applied to garments made of cotton, polyester and acrylic.

Positioning of printing

A cause of much concern and often dispute when ordering t shirt printing is getting the position and size of logo correct in the briefing stage. If this is wrong when you finally get the clothing delivered, there is not a lot you can do about it.

The most common place to have a company logo is FLB or front-left-breast. Now how could that be a problem? Well for a start, is your FLB or my FLB looking at you? The best way to remember is that it will end up on the same side as your left arm. At least that is the industry standard interpretation.

Small quantities of T-shirts

This brings us to the low volume end of the t-shirt market place.

All the techniques listed below do not have setup costs, which often makes having small quantities of t-shirt printed, prohibitive.

I will write in due course, an individual blog on each of the above,. I must emphasise that all judgements and opinions voiced in this blog are based on my own experiences and not scientific testing. Having said that, if I  have said anything that you disagree with, you can aways write a comment that everyone will see.
