Iron on Vinyl Transfers

Iron on Vinyl Transfers (HTV) is a specialty vinyl material used to decorate garments and other surfaces. It comes in sheets or rolls and is cut into designs using a vinyl cutter. After weeding away the excess vinyl, the design is heat-pressed onto the fabric.

Key Features:

  • Material: Polyurethane or PVC-based vinyl
  • Application: Requires a vinyl cutter and heat press
  • Finish Options: Matte, glossy, glitter, flock, holographic, metallic, glow-in-the-dark
  • Design Style: Best for solid shapes, text, and simple graphics

Advantages of HTV Compared to DTF

Why Choose HTV?

HTV shines when:

  • You’re working on small-scale or personalized projects
  • You want unique textures or finishes (like glitter or flock)
  • You prefer a hands-on, craft-style workflow
  • You’re just starting out and want a budget-friendly setup


If you’re experimenting with sublimation and material compatibility, HTV could be a great complement—especially for items that don’t work well with sublimation (like dark cotton fabrics).

HTV is a perfect solution for a mono coloured decal application. For a multi coloured project refer to our DTF line. The transfer is on a heat proof, clear transfer sheet to aid placement.

Our vinyl is durable, flexible, and easy to apply (instructions and testers supplied), it can withstand a large range of ambient temperature conditions ranging from -29C – 38C (direct sunlight may result in fading).
