Textile marking: an opportunity to create unique pieces of clothing

Customised clothing is taking on an increasingly important place in the world of textiles. Indeed, customised clothing can be used to convey promotional messages, to communicate about one’s own brand or business… This is where iron-on films come into play. These films, also known as cutting flex, offer a versatile solution for creating unique customised pieces of clothing.

Iron-on films, an ideal solution for customised clothing

At HEXIS, the range of iron-on films includes cutting flex and printable flex. We are going to concentrate on cutting flex. Cutting flex allows great precision in detail. In addition, they offer the possibility of creating unique and complex designs (logos, slogans, artistic motifs etc.). In this product family, you can choose the finish you desire from a wide range of colours.

Customised clothing with a velvet touch

If you want to create a design with a velvet feel, FLOCK200 is ideal. It is a cutting flock with a self-adhesive liner, specially designed for non-sublimated cotton and polyester. The special feature of this product is that it is PVC-free. It is perfect for customising sports tops, t-shirts, sweatshirts and also polo shirts. Its soft, velvety, slightly raised finish is perfect for creating logos, numbers or vintage-style graphics. Very much appreciated in the sporting world, it is also a safe choice for fashion items.
