Reflective Emblems

Description

Emblems which are silkscreen printed on reflective material (grey, reflective) for application to workwear textiles. The reflective base material is compliant to the requirement of EN ISO 20471:2013, for high visibility workwear.

Application

Emblems for marking work wear according to reflective standards as required by standards for reflectivity for workwear.

Care

• Glass beads holding resin products might be damaged by extremely harsh washing or dry-cleaning conditions and the reflective performance and shelf life of the product could be significantly diminished as a result. For best retention of the reflective brilliance of the emblems, the following washing and dry-cleaning instructions must be strictly observed
• Do not pre-soak
• Do not apply high-alkaline stain-removal chemicals (e.g. pastes, salts or heavy-duty products)
• Do not use solvated detergents or micro-emulsions
• Do not use any bleaching agents
• Do not overdry. The surface temperature of reflective fabric should not exceed 120 °C
• Home washing: 40 °C. Use a normal or programmed automatic washing process for colored garments. Apply only a main wash. In the case of machine washing, program time must not exceed 50 minutes and washing. Moreover, pH neutral detergents are generally recommended for washing.
• Do not bleach!

Limitations of use

None, when washing instructions of the underlying textile are followed.

Physical properties

• Color: Silver (grey)
• Size: various, design dependable

Before sealing

Ensure that the to be marked textile is free of lint, dust, dirt and no seams, zipper, buttons etc. are near the place where the heat sealing will be performed.
Remark: Good bonding can be prevented in pre-conditioned fabrics with a dirt or water repellent coating.

Heat seal instructions

• Be aware that the ideal application settings depend on various factors such as type of fabric, type of heat press, surroundings and other factors. We advise you to always perform application and wash testing before starting production
• Temperature 175 °C
• Time: 12 seconds
• Pressure: moderate, i.e. 3 bar on a pneumatic heat seal press

Storage and shelf life

Keep the patches and rolls in their original packing, out of direct sunlight, in a cool and dry place.

Thermopatch Reflective Plotter foil (silver)

Description

Thermopatch Reflective is an open lens type material containing microscopic glass beads bonded to a heat transfer active layer. In darkness and in reduced visibility the retro reflective properties of the material ensure a reflection of incident light.

Product

• Oeko Tex: 1110043 Centexbel
• EN ISO 20471:2013
• Washability: 60 °C / ISO 6330
• Wash: Inside out
• Color: Silver

Application

Thermopatch Reflective is designated to be applied on fabrics based on cotton, polyester and mixtures of cotton with polyesters. The right conditions of application (temperature, press a.s.o.) have to be tested on each textile support separately before using!

Heat sealing

• Remove the protective layer on the adhesive side of the product
• Temperature ranges between 150°C and 165°C; (Depends on type of fabric)
• High temperature washing applications will ask for the higher temperatures in this range.
• Time: 20 – 15 seconds
• Pressure: 0.5 kg/cm²* pressure, or medium pressure on a manual operated heat sealing press. • Remove release film on top after a short cool down period (hand warm)
• For an optimal heat sealing result we advise to set the pressure on any large platen pneumatic heat seal press to 3-4 bar (medium) on the pressure regulator of the machine, when using the standard issued under platen. When using smaller underplates, decrease pressure to avoid damage to the transfers.

Thermopatch Reflective FR (Flame Retardant)

Application

• Temperature setting advised for application from/up to: 150 °C -165 °C
• Heat sealing time: 15 – 12 s
• Pressure: 0.5 kg/cm²* pressure, or medium pressure on a manual operated heat sealing press.
• After cooling, carefully remove the protective foil when still warm
• After removing the protective foil repeat the procedure
• For an optimal heat sealing result we advise to set the pressure on any large platen pneumatic heat seal  press to 3-5 bar on the pressure regulator of the machine, when using the standard issued underplaten.  When using smaller underplatens, decrease pressure to avoid damage to the transfers

Handling and storage

Keep away from oxidizing agents, from strongly alkaline en strongly acid materials. Store out of direct sunlight, in a cool and dry place.

Precautions

No specific safety measures are required when working with this product. We advise to ventilate well at heat sealing activities, since vapours may occur from any material such as textiles being processed.
