What is flocking?

Flocking is a technique that consists of cutting out a thermally adhesive material (which sticks together under the action of heat) called Flex. This material is then transferred to the textile using a heat press.

This technique is ideal for making markings on professional or sports clothing because Flex has exceptional washability. You can also personalise all types of materials and colours and add the effects of your choice: smooth, velvet, metallic, glitter, strass, neon, etc.

Costing

The objective of this sheet is to give you a cost approach to study the feasibility of your creative projects. It is not exhaustive and can be modified according to your needs, equipment and requirements. If you have additional costs, you can of course add them to this calculation base (labour, software, various accessories, etc.). In the same way, if you have costs that are lower than those indicated, such as textile supports for example, you can adjust the costs indicated in the table.

This sheet is a basis on which you can explore your creative ideas.

Let your imagination run wild and build a project that suits you :)
